You thought we would actually hit on a late draft pick? Pfft.

I'd like us to trade for Bjelica. He'd be perfect off the bench or with the starters if one of Kemba, Smart, JB or JT is out.

TPE (7,1 mil.), Houston 2023 2nd rounder for Bjelica.

We'd still have 21 mil. of the TPE back and all of our first rounders.
Kings can fit Edwards into the TPE they are creating or we could just waive him.

Dang, I was watching the Lakers-POR game and couldn't we figure out a way to get Schroeder for a 1st and fillers? I mean we've blown every mid-late first, ever.. Schroeder would've been great here. Now, we will need a lot more from Jeff Teague and he's had 1 good game.
Good assessment:

There wasn't dude. You wanna give up Smart for him? That was the only way to salary match, we didn't have the TPE at the time

If before the season, you had the Magic and Hawks as the only undefeated teams in the NBA after a week of games, you're lying.

It's like Julius Randle averaging like a 25 point triple double to start the season..2020 makes no sense.

Josh Jackson is a knucklehead but I like redemption stories so it’s good seeing him turning things around. He always had elite traits

Not Stevens type, but we could use a young Wing to grow with us? I believe cheap contract as well.

Javonte Green or Semi and a 2nd?? Only a matter of time before Det wants to play S Bey more.

A guy I think we could get from Detroit that makes sense is Delon Wright. He is versatile and can play multiple spots.

Thibs gonna Thibs. 8 man rotation against that Cavs. Randle at 44 and Bullock at 41 min.

EDIT: I guess they were pretty short-handed.

Feel like Magic have started strong multiple years and then promptly fall off a cliff!
