Didn’t we figure it all out last thread?

Orlando needs a SG.

Orlando needs a SG.

so you are not blown away with graceful ability of Gary Harris to make 3 shots per week like others are?

[byeganyo]

So it's his fault he doesnt take enough shots? do we have coach?

Bracing for the inevitable letdown of TRoss for a srp…and that’s all

As a fan of this (let’s face it) strictly entertainment business, I’d really like to see some ballsy work by the FO.

“Sometimes the best trades are the ones you don’t make” is what I would preach if I was prioritizing avoiding criticism than being great at my job.

[drsd]

Well: this rumor just won't end.

RUMOR: Magic’s Fred VanVleet trade interest gets intriguing Jalen Suggs twist

[drsd]

Any VanVleet for Suggs trade will require Ross or G-Harris to be added for salary, and a player like Hernangomez to balance at a low-salary line.

Actually, I like Bo Cruz. So: sure, why not.

[basketballRob]

I wouldn't be surprised if they keep Ross. He could be our Haslem.

[jezzerinho]

Given Tor allegedly hates Suggs' draft workout, it seems a bit speculative that they're really looking for Jalen at all costs to make this trade happen. I remain sceptical.

[Nyce_1]

We need a movement shooter.

[MartinsIzAfraud]

Gimme Kennard + Hartenstein please

[Orl_Magic]

if they want Suggs I would say no deal. VV is expiring and there is no guarentee he re signs with us

[MartinsIzAfraud]

Gimme Kennard + Hartenstein please

I wouldn’t mind Trent Jr but he’d have to pick up that player option or re sign immediately.

So it's his fault he doesnt take enough shots? do we have coach?

It's definitely the coaching staff in NJ that have prevented Ben Simmons from taking basically any shots at all, often including layups.

[cedric76]

Pronostic:

Bamba for kennard + LAC 2023 SRP

Kennard is pretty cheap and has a team option on his last year, so if he pans out we could retain him for cheap
By that time our 2023 draft pick will be ready for more PT

We cant find anyone willing to trade for Ross and do a buy out

Not sure what will happen to RJ

Could RJ + ORL 2023 SRP + LAC 2023 SRP for moody work, I m not sure GW would bite

Fultz,Suggs,Cole
Harris,Kennard,cole
Franz,Bol,Chuma
PB,JI,Chuma
WCL,Moe,JI

That s a nice roster to fight for play in

Then we ll have a bit summer ahead of us with FA and 2 FRP

Go magic

Simmons same as Fultz but to even higher degree just refuses to shoot from 3.
Its entirely different situation than Gary Harris who just doesnt get enough passes. He is a very willing shooter. Its primary on Fultz but also on Franz and Paolo that Gary doesnt get enough looks. Its hard to tell what are instructions from coaching staff.

Gary who?

[RichCollab]

Gary Harris is a pretty good SG and fits well. He needs to be more assertive and maybe that’s just not him. We are playing over .500 ball with a rookie and sophomore. That’s not normal. Franz can get better at 3. Im good giving this group next season and see how it goes. I’m good if we bring in another SG to challenge Harris but that player isn’t going to be cheap or easy to find. We need to find the next Cam Thomas.

Has he not played enough pro games for scouts to make an informed opinion? Not that I want to trade for FVV.
