Am I the only one who doesn't care enough for this trade?

Well not that it matters basketball wise,but we are moving on from Biyombo which should be exciting for most magic fans. I know Mozgov has same silly contract but the guy can play at least.

Whatever I’m just happy the albatross is gone. Zero sentiment with Mozgov so it’s better. Not every victory has to be a large one.

I see them trying to shuffle the deck a bit which it's a good sign, but I think more moves are to be made.

This is like saying you want to change your apartment/living room/bedroom around and you change the rugs and pillows. You just feel better looking at it with slight changes but it's the same stuff. womp.

I bet at least one of the two seconds is one of the three seconds The Magic has next year.

No sweat we have second round picks for days.

...and we still have the MLE to spend on________??

Wait let me get this straight. We move biz finally and acquire a younger point guard for depth and people can’t see the positive?

What are you all expecting? There are little to no assets on this roster that will give Orlando a somewhat decent return. The only players that would are AG, Isaac, and Bamba. People aren’t even sold on moving any of them, so be prepared to take trades like this as a win and move on.

Magic own 2 extra 2nds next year and one extra 2nd in 2020.

Still like to have them.

Good deal. I dont understand how you can not like it? We get a free look at a solid young pg with our only outgoing piece being biz! Thats amazing. And i dont get how this means we are done for the offseason?

Just the usual post event overreacting i see.

To me, this trade isn’t a horrible thing. It’s probably one of those little trades that lead to something else later. We no longer have to overpay Biz, but Mozgov is a total stiff with 6 fouls a game. He’ll barely see the floor. I know next to nothing about Jerian Grant, so I can’t make much in judgements only to say his numbers are solid and maybe he’ll bring somethings positive that we don’t expect.

Hate to give up the 2 2nds but getting Grant was a good pickup.

[Howard Mass]

The picks are 2019 and 2020 and believe it's least favorable of Magic's 3 in 2019 and least favorable of 2 in 2020.

Its a damn you, damn you dont. Probably Because We didnt get anything shiney... i guess.

No one suprised Weltman said Mozy?

[MasterGMer]

How does the buyout rule work? If Magic reaches an agreement with Mozgov, what percentage of contract $$ would count towards salary cap?

I also think an Vuc trade is happening, Biz won’t crack the rotation next season so we get Mozgov, who is a more capable Center. With him as backup and Birch as third stringer, Vuc is gone
