Thats because no one has perspective. For example, we dont want Bynum because we are doing a full on rebuild which is the right thing to do. But in this twitter era everyone wants changes imediately and in the situation we are in we would be stuck being mediocre with large contracts, no capspace and no draft picks. When we traded Tmac and got back 3 veterans (Francis, Mobley, Cato) that did not turn out very well did it? We did not make the playoffs with those guys, we did not have capspace and our draft position sucked. So if we do the deals that ESPN says we should have done then that would be our destiny- being mediocre.

I'm not all that happy about this trade but the whiners with all the negative spins on the situation need to relax.
Yes, Philly and Denver improved more than we did. But you know what, I'd bet that we get to the Finals before them because they'll run with their teams and try to improve on em before they realize they're teams aren't going anywhere. At least we're rebuilding now. We're going to have flexibility for once and I'd like to see what Hennigan does with it before judging.
The focus is on the draft and player development. Who knows how it's going to turn out? But at least the stench that's been polluting the Magic organization for the past two years will be gone. Bash the organization and decision makers all you want. The Magic have gone through this before and have made it back to relevance enough to earn my loyalty. And when the Magic return to relevance like I think they will, you guys will be cheering just the same.
This was always going to suck. But I'm certainly more comfortable with this deal than Brooklyn's deal.

Hard cap should be 60million not a penny more

After all these "snap" judgements, FINALLY a voice of reason.
