So Tobias and Aaaron can play together in the starting lineup?

Ok, so this looks a lot better now. I'm hoping Henny hasn't lost the Magic touch. I guess the optimistic take on this is that you just acquired Shawn Kemp and Gary Payton mach 2.

To be honest, the reasoning had to be we couldn't wait for him to come over. We need to make noise this coming year.

Oh, just a 2nd rounder? Well that changes my opinion quite a bit. I still love me some Saric, but okay, I can get on board with this trade. I mean it makes sense, obviously, getting a point guard. We've needed to draft a point guard for like 100 years now.
11/18/2017 - I have officially disowned Nikola Vucevic and branded him a loser.

- Skal Labissiere was my guy in 2016 pre-trade. Whoops, but I still believe.
- Malik Monk was my guy in 2017. Whoops(?)
- Mo Bamba was my guy in 2018. TBD.

I'm going to reserve judgment on this draft until I see how far Dipo/Harris/Vuc develop offensively. Because if we get relatively the same efficiency/production from them, we're going to be in for a long season.

Rob likes defense and athleticism. Our team better RUN all game long.

After some initial disappointment we passed on Exum, I'm now ecstatic with today's additions. Gordon, Payton & Fournier. Great job Rob!

Woj says we gave up a 2017 first (and maybe a second). To move up 2 spots? Are you kidding me.

Is Gordon more of a 4 or 3?

God it's hard to keep up with realgm being so slow.

Apparently there is indeed a 1st rounder in the deal? Which I don't like.

I like Saric, but he has Fran written all over him. Thank goodness we traded for Payton. The Gordon pick looks a lot better now with Payton coming in too. We got our SF/PF of the future in Gordon and we got our future PG to be Oladipo's running mate. Great draft so far for the Orlando Magic.
