always liked watching the guy play whenever I saw him play. You know what you're gonna get from him.... defense, energy, and a decent shot on the spot up. Might not make all of his shots, but he's not the type to take ill-advised ones. just plays within the system. Good/cheap pickup.

It is well documented that DPE are only used approximately 29% of the time. The vast majority of the time these exceptions simply fade away. What expectations did you have?

Small upgrades like this dont mean much in the grand scheme, he may help this year though we will see.

Good to see you again man. How you been? Hope all is well

Very specific number. Please provide evidence.

I just hope he adds a few solid minutes needed to help avoid the 3rd quarter fall-off we seem to encounter every single game.

Getting DJ back will help as well.

Ennis is a career 35.6 percent three-point shooter !!!

40% from the corners the last couple years.

I'm suprised your not more upset about this mediocre at best trade.

Oh don't get me wrong, I'm upset with every trade deadline or draft night that goes by without us trading a certain tandem of players from France and Montenegro (I don't want to name names, so I'll leave it vague), but what can I do at this point. I'll be dead before we trade those two mystery men (or women, again, being vague).

If I was stupid enough to put myself through the hell of actually giving these morons my money, I'd go there just to boo him in person.

Give me my 1 in a million chance of getting a 2nd round gem over this useless 29 year old fogie!

Ennis needs to start. Birch was awful in the Knicks game.

Yeah, third quarter collapses are the worst.

Worst thing about them is they happen in any given quarter with us.

Agree 100%. He should only come off the bench only in the very first game and that's it. Either him, or Iwundu. No more minites for Birch.

Clifford, New Teammates Excited to Welcome James Ennis to Magic

Umm: maybe not Iwundu and Birch.

Apparently he has a player option for next season. Will be interesting to see if he opts in to it. If so: Orlando has its replacement for Iwundu, who comes off the books.
