I think there is a chance Magic don't get a shot at Tatum or Jackson.

I think there's a chance the kings, Pelicans, && New York all could end up passing us. I'm really beginning to expect a 7-8 pick.

Maybe Meeks will take one of CJ or DJ's minutes?
Yeah right I know.

Dallas and Minn both won tonight thankfully. Would be great if Sac could steal a home game aginst Den tomorrow night. Not counting on it but would help us a ton

I'm prepared for us be out of reach once again. I won't be shocked if we end up with another role player on this team.

This thread is hillarious. 1 win and we are drafting 10th 1 lose and we are talking about drafting fultz or top 5. Geez magic this season has been a wild run

That's the dream. Give me Jackson/Tatum the first then trade up for Giles/Collins/Patton top it off with a Gaurd in the 2nd Bacon/Trier/Mitchell
Next order of business is to move Vuc and Evan for a big. Then sign Holliday/Teague/Hill.

There is tanking and there is going in to the 4th 26 down and losing the quarter. That's skill

The tank race is seriously that close this year. Every single win and loss makes a big impact.

Yeah same. It's easier to just expect that outcome again. This team is still trying desperately to win every game. They just can't commit to a tank. That's why they keep missing on franchise players.

Frank Vogel will come through, no worries. His rotations and offensive ingenuity are absolutely terrible regardless of what people think about the current roster. He had the exact same issues with the Pacers. In Orlando, he does not have Paul George bailing him out.
I just want to be in the top 5 in this draft, that's all I ask.

That being said, I don't understand how people are 'ok' with having a team of role players and low impact players. This fan base is left praying one of the players we drafted 4 years ago can become something. It's great to see EP and AG have big games, but when it earns us the 7th or 8th pick in a 6 player draft we are missing opportunities.

Seems like NBA2k style moves to me. Doubt we ever see that many moves in Magicland.
