I really hope we get a vet PF who can bang and knock down J's from 15-17. We would be so nasty if we had one and in our current state we are so unpredictable without one.

if we get hot we can beat any team in the league, but that's if we get hot

This is true with almost any team in the league, look at the Cavs last year. However the east now has two powerhouses instead of one, making the chances of a team heating up and riding a Cinderella story to the finals that much more difficult. That being said, Cinderellas castle is located in Orlando :)

My favorite part:

Orlando is 4-3 against Boston and Detroit, combined. The Magic are the only team in the league to have beaten both twice.

he left on a sour note after his last stint. So I don't think he would play for Orlando again even if he could.

Antonie Walker? Assuming he gets a buyout. Also assuming he doesn't go sign with the Celtics.

Walker makes me want to vomit uncontrollably. He would be worse than Brian Cook, and I'm not even joking.

Its too late for Walker...Even if he is bought out he cant join a playoff team.

Current free agents are all we have to choose from.

1. it would be foolish to claim that the pg play is competent "consistently".
2. watching a game here, another game there, might make the sample space too small, making any generalization fallacious.
