Goodbye: Jodie Meeks signs with Wizards (2yr/7mil)

Right move to watch him walk away.

We absolutely HAVE TO know what we have with Mario (even if we think we know already lol).

Well this is one way to look at it. But Coach Vogel is on record as stating Hezonja will be examined as a small ball PF. Not as a SG.

So we will see.

I admire that Vogel said that. It echos what I have been wanting to see from Mario because of my MASSIVE doubts in his capabilities.

But there's still a part of me that hopes I'm wrong about Pooper Mario. Hopefully, he will improve this offseason and hopefully Mario will be re-examined everywhere and hopefully he thrives on the wing..... and if that doesn't work, then as a last ditch effort to salvage anything out of him, maybe our last resort will be to make him a part time small ball PF off the bench. ...where he officially becomes a BUST.

Probably the best henny signing

Not that long and athletic enough for John

I enjoyed Jodie's time here with the Magic. Very solid player for us and he had a stretch when he was starting for Evan to where we looked like a competent basketball team. He'll be a nice fit with the Wizards off the bench.

solid player? was out to start the first 20 games or so, played 25 and was out again another 25 games. he didnt play defense, scoring was up and down, i wouldnt call him solid.

Hahahaha. Solid for the Magic, the bar must be set pretty low. I think all of us are getting used to mediocre to poor basketball.

*traded for him.

I don't see how the Magic couldn't have used Jodie Meeks, especially for 2 years, $7 million. Literally no one on this team can shoot.
Yes he was injured a lot but what are they going to get at that price to fill his roster spot that can shoot like him on a team that needs shooting more than anything? This reminds me of trading the #25 pick for nothing on draft night -- do they have so much talent that they're just done this off-season? Would 2 years, $7 million have hindered them in any way? Would the salary for a #25 pick kill their chances to do other things? They have roster spots available. They have cap room. And they obviously aren't going to land a top-tier free agent. So what is the vision here?
