Not surprised. I am sure Frye has his bags packed.

Wonder if they're being included in a larger Frye/Stephenson deal.

Fire sale going on right now. Glad Hennigan is shaking things up and only getting rid of the guys who aren't providing much.

Agreed 100%. We know who's willing to fight and play right. The others can go.

Nicholson and Napier now involved with a third team entering the fold in the Frye deal? Would make sense...I can't imagine Henny found a taker just for those two in a separate deal. Frye + Nicholson + Napier for expirings + a 2nd round pick or two?

I am so excited for no more shabazz and his other additions! This feels like the most active we've been since he got here.

I have lightened up on the Harris move. I knew he would be traded, I knew he needed to be moved, but I didn't think Jennings/Illyasova were right. But I've had time to think, and it makes us better short/long term, whichever direction we decide to go with the two players.

I'll trust Hennigan here, moving Napier/Nicholson is the right thing. Frye should be moved next. I'm anxious to see what we get in return!

And as he departs from us, I finally get why so many have called him Cold Cuts.
The future is bright 8-) Payton said. ``I just want to keep getting better and maybe one day I can be the all-time all assists leader for the Magic.’’

Damn we are cleaning out the closet. Im sure they will be packaged with Frye or traded to other teams for just second rounds or some player that gets no pt. Interesting to see what Rob will do.

Cmon Phil, send us Langston Galloway!
