Kings and Magic talking about trade.
Hopefully my source is right and we could possibly be getting Miller and Garcia, while also not losing any of our big 4 in Nelson, Hedo, Lewis and Howard.
Doing the trade checker, it could go down like this.
Miller and Garcia to Orlando
Garrity (expiring), Arroyo (expiring), Bogans (1 year left on contract) and a future 1st rounder to Sac-Town
Why Orlando does it - Getting Miller beside Howard gives them the best starting front court in the east by far and Garcia coming off the bench at the SG/SF spot >>>>>>>> Bogans. This makes the Magic a legit contender to come out of the east IMO.
Why the Kings do it - Well they pretty much just gave Bibby away for expirings so it is obvious. They get cap space for this offseason/beyond and a future 1st rounder.

Right now my source is saying that the only thing holding the deal up is Otis because he doesn't like the big contract of Miller. They are in serious discussions though and no the Magic would not lose Hedo.
Overall the Kings want cap space and doing this deal gets them a ton. Overall they would have only a 38 million cap if this deal is done and if Artest opts out it goes down another 8.4 million giving them tons of cap space to go after the many good FAs this offseason and possible cap space for the future.
Otis better get Devos on the phone and have him approve this deal.

How much does Miller have left? Seems like he's been on the decline lately. However, playing next to Dwight would alleviate a lot of physical stress and pressure.
Except for the blocking, isn't he what we pictured Darko to be - a good passing and shooting big man?
That said, I'd do the deal.

Actually Miller has played great this year. He putting up 15 points, 10 rebounds, 4 assists per game. He will be 32 years old in April, but he only has 2 years left on his contract.
