``It changes nothing. I pretty much feel about him the same that I felt yesterday, the day before that and the day before that. I still think he can be a good backup (shooting) guard for us,’’ Smith said. ``Nothing has really changed with that. We’ve drafted one and have the potential to sign another, but does the season start tomorrow? OK, then, there’s more work to be done, right? Let the paint dry on the situation first and then see what happens.’’

``I still like the kid and still think he can play for us,’’ Smith said. ``As I’ve said before he’s not the first guy in the history of basketball whose career has gotten off to a slow start. And he’s not the first guy who has played four years of college basketball and struggled to get on the floor. Please write this, `I like J.J. Redick.’^’’

``We’ll see where (Dooling) falls in the next couple of days,’’ Smith said. ``He still has to evaluate what’s out there for him. It’s all about the numbers.’’

Lol at the "I like J.J. Redick comment.

Other then that he has a good point. He is only trying to make the team better.

Denton is beating the Orlando Sentinel over the head with his coverage. The sentinel should just pay him to do their Magic columns.

At the rate that the Sentinel continues to downsize it's content and paper, that may be more realistic than you think....lol

Article after article he has beaten them on getting the story. Florida Today isn't exactly a world class paper compared to our Pulitzer prize wannabee's at the Sentinel.

It's too bad that neither of you read all of Denton's article this quote is quite interesting:

Bogans, a part-time starter last season at shooting guard and one of the Magic’s best on-ball defenders, is the player most likely to be shopped.
