Homer blindness. He's gone. Doesn't matter to me. Isaac is going to be our SF.

Only way to keep Mario is to get rid of Fournicancer and play gin at SG, but I doubt that happens. WeSham are not that smart.


Let's remember all times when Isaac showed that he is future SF ...

Video below

Spoiler:
alert, 0 times at SF in nba, spent whole his college career at PF .


btw " Fourniercancer" ? Really dude? I know you have no class and since Mario pretty much pissing all over your past posts you look silly but even for you this is new low.

I haven't watched a lot of Magic basketball this year. Can someone inform me about what's going on with Mario? Apart from the fact that he's been getting more minutes, why do you think he's playing better lately?
Better believe it: Ryan Arcidiacono is the point guard of the future.

Game slowed down to him, he figured out how to be effective and how to avoid turnovers . His driving game improved a lot and when he is guarded by PFs they have no chance at guarding him because all of them are slower. His pick&roll game improved a lot ( even at nba.com there is article about him ).

And he gets playing time without being hooked after first mistake. Perfect storm for him.

In before the position debate for the thousandth time.

To me, this is wishful thinking until it actually happens. I’m not really sure why people make these proclamations about young players every year before seeing their limitations and how their game adapts to the NBA level.

Mario won’t be on the team and I don’t see Isaac as a SF.

There is no homer blindless, it's not a case of being hard to understand, it's until a decision is made why plan without him? nobody on this board has inside information or knows what management or players management is thinking, so until he's gone why not want and hope him to be here?

Because this is reality?

When an employer at a sh** job doesn’t appreciate the time you put in, refuses to extend your contract, and there are other jobs with willing contract offers - you 100% won’t be there anymore.

Again, your opinion, you have no evidence of it. I'm not going to knock your opinion because I think it's the more likely out coming, but jumping on people for suggesting otherwise in a condescending way isn't cool

Never “jumped” on anyone. Just don’t see the point in denying the inevitable or looking past the fact he’s gone.

I'm not shutting the door on Mario. I'm saying we should start him over Fournicancer. That's the only way to keep him.

Said it before and saying it now. We should've traded Evan at the deadline even if it was for expiring contracts.

Agree 100%, and offer assurances about minutes which is a slippery slope to begin with

Luckily we still have Hezonja's bird rights, so I'm assuming after next year we can go over the cap to sign him.

I would certainly hope so. The only problem is we can't match it if he signs the first offer. So we need to play our cards right.

:lol: Bird rights are only good if you are offering a max contract and want to outbid the field.

They definitely don't do anything good for us this summer, but it doesn't really have to do with the field. If we had zero cap space but want to retain Mario or someone else we have Bird's on then we can still go over the cap as much as we want in order to do so. Otherwise we'd have to sign him/them into pure cap space.

I think that's why Memphis looked so dumb not trading Evans. Won't have Bird rights on him so most think they'll just lose him this summer.

I do think the Kings will offer him a 4 yr 50 or 60m deal.

And-1

Seriously, we fans slot Isaac at the SF, but that is hopeful wishing. We could be dealing with a more troubling Isaac-or-Gordon discussion coming in to the next draft-day deadline. It is really all over the map.
(And Isaac is still at least 2-years of weight-training ready to reach his NBA potential).
