essential duplicates......I dont care how much of a spin the coach and gm try to put onto it bogans sucks at defense hense why EVERY shooting guard in the leage obliterates us. JJ's suppososed lack of D is no longer a valid excuse for his lack of pt.

uh, all the redick sympathizers having the day of their lives. Ideally, some GM will be stupid enough, hopefully Philly's and take this 1 dimensional guy off of our hands. 2 expiring contracts, redick for miller and evans?


let's play a below average player, below average athlete 40 mins a game!!!

Man, you guys are harsh. "Day of our lives" - hardly. Had we won, yeah, different story, then we could have something to talk about.

You have to admit, JJ enters the game and the game changed tonight. One time deal? Who knows, with the way SVG runs things, it could be another 5 or 6 games.

JJ out hustled Bogans tonight and deserves more time. Starting - nah, I don't think so.

at this point that sounds pretty good. 10 pts in 8 mins?

This isnt the first time Ive noticed JJ having a positive impact. I wish he would get more PT. Hell Id be for starting him.

The only way we start him is if we have Dwight and Adonal starting, just due to his man being able to beat him off the dribble. And than if we do that it clogs the lane for Dwight. So its a tough call.

But for one I am for a lineup of

Nelson/JJ/Lewis/Dwight/Folye

I'd give that Lineup a shot...

An O-Sen story today on this point:
O-Sen: Redick has drawn interest from other NBA teams

Second-year guard J.J. Redick still can't find a real role with the Magic, yet General Manager Otis Smith said Tuesday it doesn't mean he has given up on him. He also said that Redick

god damn it! Bogans gives us mediocre defense that still allows opposing SGs to blow up on us. JJ can give us crap defense that almost as effective PLUS consistent shooting.

i can't stand how much they're towing this line. do the guy a favour and trade him away.

i just hate how JJ can turn in a performance like this and still doesn't get rewarded. he's a pathetic defender - fine. it's not a secret. but he's a dynamite shooter. let's just give it a shot with him filling substantial minutes. what do we have to lose? more games to bad teams?


I vote for You sir.

I'd be all for JJ landing somewhere else and getting a fair shot. He's not going to get that here and I laugh at all the defense comments, because obviously we have defesive stoppers playing guard now. I can do better than these guys by just moving my feet. I always thought team defense, rotations were what made teams good defensively. I think I have seen this team draw maybe 3 charges all year long. You'd think they might be able to do this at this level. Oh well just trade him and let his one dimensional ass light it up for other teams.
