So the Haslem trade is still a possibility? Is it actually on the table or is it just casual discussion?


From what Eze is saying, they have many trades in front of them, many teams are waiting on a Magic decision. He thinks that either Miller or Kurt Thomas will be in a Magic uniform with in the next 48 hours.

Onto the game thread thing, Is it just me or should we root for our team to lose? I mean I just have that feeling if we win..Otis is going to really like our team.

I'm not intrigued by Kurt Thomas at all.

It seems that Kurt Thomas is our #1 priority...
I'd be damned if we pass on the Miller deal...

Well I'm going to trust Denton on this one guys, eze might have 'access to GM's', but Denton has been on top of the Magic all season and we know he talks directly to Otis...

John Denton wrote:Otis isn't even with the team....he's scouting college games.


Basically what Denton said was Miller is a good player but he makes 23mill over the next two seasons, and Orlando isn't a big enough market to support 3 big salary guys.

It would mean 41million of the ~55million cap taken up by 3 players.

Throw in Hedo and its 48million by 4 players.

Throw in Meer and its pretty much the whole salary cap for our staring 5, and only the MLE to replace all our expirings and have some semblance of a bench.

Also,

John Denton wrote:I know Otis likes KThomas a lot, but he's leery of taking back Wilkins or Watson or Ridnour.

Otis will shy away from it if the deal kills them in the long term.


I'm not going to pump him for more info though so don't ask :lol:

Has Denton ever correctly predicted a trade? Yes, he reports what Otis tells him, but you know Otis...

By the way if Otis is out scouting college during this time of the year he needs to be fired.
