The Perfect PF for the Magic

It's Jeff Foster, guys we all know his game and how he hustles and does the little things like offensive rebounding, he is absolutely perfect for us, do we have any chance to get him?

Hubie is praising this guy to no end against boston tonight saying he loves him and how he tried to get him every summer to memphis.

Agreed. I don't like him as a starter, but he'd be a great big man for us off the bench.

I'd rather have KG.

It'd be nice to have someone who could hit the J though. The "perfect" PF for the Magic would be Shawn Marion or Elton Brand or Garnett or Dirk.

Sorta off topic... I was thinking of making a thread about this, but it's way too early.

Has anyone heard anything definitve about Vazquez?

Will he play for us next year finally???

Alot of people are going on about getting the right PF, and I wonder if this guy may be the answer Otis already thinks he has...

Any thoughts?

Pat Garrity is not impressed.

I maintain the perfect PF is either Josh Smith or Chris Bosh, as long as we're dreaming.

Udonis Haslem is. We could have had him. But we didn't.

Elton Brand, his game and personality are a perfect fit

Who says we could've had Udonis? I had heard Otis tried hard to get him, but Riley played hardball

I like Brand alot. But, Foster could help out in a backup role.

Rasheed Wallace if i had my choice

Experience, Rebounding, Defense, Shooting, everything

Al Horford would be my pick.

It would be extremely ironic, but I would like Emeka next to Dwight

ya, dont think it could work chemistry wise. there has to be an unspoken bitterness between them.

Lamarcus Aldridge with Dwight would be nice

No thanks.

I'd definitely rather have Foster, if we somehow had a choice of having one of them.

Troy Murphy is more of a duplicate talent set. We don't really need what Murphy offers, really. Foster, however, would fill a great void for us.

For the record, I've always been on the Foster-to-Orlando bandwagon, especially when it comes to being a semi-realistic move for us. I can name a ton of players who would be great for us, some have already been suggested in this thread, but in terms of providing a service that we could use and the chances of actually being able to acquire -- Foster has always topped my list.

There's definitely been a bit of a rivalry, but I don't think that necessarily equates to bitterness; They're both mature, respectable, level-headed guys.

He's still got another year.

Besides, I don't know if we'll have enough minutes to go around after we add Maggette, Jamison, and Haslem.

I think your wrong about lamar this is what the article says

"Lakers GM Mitch Kupchak has done a great job of turning into an L.A. favorite this season, but he still doesn't know what the team will do in regard to re-signing Lamar Odom this offseason, according to the Los Angeles Times."

and im not sure i understand why you take foster over murphy. I dont understand what you mean when you say is more of a duplicate talent set. We don't really need what Murphy offers. Murphy has been rebounding great lately and scoring too. Fosters numbers have been more weak than murphy's
