I'm a fan of players that play winning ball more than an all-star birth. A lot of bad players make the all-star team. Didn't Greg Monroe make it a couple of times?

And not lot of bad players won championship?

Tristan Thompson, Mario Chalmers, Kendrick Perkins, AC Green all started on championship teams.

And whole bunch of DNP-CD guys have rings. Austin Daye won ring based on 6 min total in playoffs in 2014.

Hard to argue with AG’s characterization of his time in ORL…what was the stat, 6 different coaches? That’s an undeniably bad situation to come up in. He’s never been the brightest bulb and I don’t think he’s being vindictive towards anyone, just wrapped up in his own story.

This board would be better without so many petty arguments of the "I told you so" type about players who aren't on the Magic anymore. Revisiting the same old back and forth sniping at each other about Vuc, AG, Evan, Oladipo or whoever is just tiresome.

And yes, I've been guilty of this myself, I am trying to stop. ;)

The only player I'll be tempted to do the I told you so gimmick is Keyonte. Unless he sucks terribad, which is very likely.

Face expression of Jokic when he figures he can't go home in Serbia ride horses because of "championship parade " is priceless. Let guy ride his horses :lol:

I dont blame him. His time here was the dark days of the franchise and very unstable.

Glad he found some footing now. Never doubted his ability to be a good 3 and D guy. Glad he accepted that role and blossomed.
