if we got francisco garcia we could trade carlos arroyo at last and keep the spanish community happy..it'd only piss of the PR's. hehe

if we get both players on the same team...its gonna be ridiculosu how the magic try to milk $ out of it and market to the spanish fans:)

I like the Haslem trade the best because it effects our cap the least and Haslem would be the best player out of all of those players, but I like something about all of these trades. I like Luke Ridnour with either of Wilcox or Collison. I don't care for Thomas too much cause I don't see him as an upgrade to Tony and Tony could be back for the playoffs which would mean we can match up when the time comes. Thats if Tony can come back. I like the Miller trade too but I must admit I don't know much about Garcia. I think Miller will have 2 seasons agianst our cap, and then we can move on. Devos has been good about going into the luxery in the past so we will see.

From the sound of things, it all comes down to Devos wanting to go into the luxury tax zone.

Kings have offered Brad Miller and Garcia for Arroyo, Garrity, Redick, and Bogans, and the Kings would then cut Anthony Johnson and Lorenzen Wright. And again, haven't heard any details on any draft picks in this either, though I'm almost positive there will be some involved)

Petrie isn't keen on parting with Garcia in a Miller deal, and prefers to send Douby...and has countered with that but the Garcia/Miller deal is what the Magic prefer out of all the situations and as far as I know, that is the deal getting the most play.


^^^^^ I read that on the kings forum, if its true and mumbleman pulls this off ill stop insulting him. That said, if the miller/garcia trade IS on the table and he DOESNT do it, its time to get a new gm.


If Otis does not do this I will personally fly to Orlando and camp out in front of his office. Give them a 1st round pick just to be nice if this is really true.

I don't think DeVos would really cry himself to sleep over that, as he's gone over it before and he wants us to win. Since our arena is named after his business, he has everything to gain from our success.

I love this trade....

Absolutely love it....the financial aspect aside.....

Brad Miller has been VERY good this season.


Just sounds too good to be true... but it'd be crazy if for once we finally ripped somebody off.

Si mi mas grande amigo.

edit: I was referring to the fact that IMO the PR community won't be as enamored with a Spaniard as they are with Carlos.
