Can Ross survive as a Magician beyond the trade deadline 

Post#1 » by drsd » Mon Jan 28, 2019 11:07 pm

The Magic is in its (sadly) typic January slump.

The team is apparently out off playoff contention. Arguably the single greatest trade asset to gain a future benefit is Ross.

So: is Ross certain to be traded?

OKC seems like one of the most likely teams to trade for him and we play them twice in next four games.

I really like Ross but, if he's still here, it implies we're staying stuck in mediocrity rather than making any kind of bold moves

Possible, especially with NOLA out of the equation. But then, maybe the Lakers will go all-in this year if they acquire AD. We'll see. But I think the chances of him staying increased after the AD news.

It's a coin toss.

Spuds Mackenzie > T. Ross

Trade who ya gotta trade. We're a bad team; everyone should be up for grabs.

Real talk. Not single player on this roster is untouchable imo. Not a single one.

I agree Ross should be traded if the return merits it, but it's just a sad situation.

Terrence Ross is the exact player you want on a young team.

He's one if not the only player that reps Orlando when he's NOT playing.

He genuinely likes and wants to be here and is the ideal role model on and off the court.

Very vocal to the fans in regards to what he wants management to do/players to peruse (just general IG/Twitter likes and comments).

Just a shi*ty situation to be in.

Voted no but meant yes. He's one of the few valuable players we have and should be on the table.
