This one also might have been the one to help with capspace although as someone mentioned above, you have to wonder why #12 and #11 weren't swapped in the deal and you have to think one of those picks is being dealt to another team.

Strap in and PLEASE DON'T DRAFT VONLEH.


Danggg you getting me hype howard mass!!!

1-Cavs Wiggins

5. Jazz-Smart

...

12. Magic Ennis


Mentally prepare yourself all you want but if it goes down like that, we'll all be crying in a corner. Hell, I might even throw a tantrum

If they tanked 2 seasons and lost 40% of their home game attendance and 60% of their tv audience for freaking Vonleh, Hennigan's seat starts getting warm next season.

Still don't know how Exum is in people's top 4. There's at least a couple 'experts' who wouldn't put him there. He's so unknown. Is it just wishful thinking? Or mass hysteria? In the end I just want what's best for the Magic.

Mike Bianchi on 740 right now... man, that guy knows nothing about basketball... maybe I'm just a basketball snob though.

I feel like he's making his audience dumber. Poor uneducated fans that are listening to him.

True, but what else can we do if we can't trade up? I'm glad he went for it, but we maybe just came up 1 spot short. The embiid injury 1 week before draft was killer, we had exum in our hands

I always get confused about Amico and Amick. One is always wrong but i can never remember which one.
Woj is the new Bucher. Shams is the new Woj. Espn is the new TMZ. The NBA is the new WWE.

smokescreen to keep the cavs from trading back to 4. They take exum @ 3 if wiggins/parker are gone i'm sure of it.

Magic are trading setting up a 4 way trade with the Rockets, Bulls, and Lakers
Nash,Lin and Boozer will set the Magic up for a Championship run. Ohhh wait it is 2014! But we could get 7,16,19,25 and Terrence Jones!
