Official 2023-2024 Magic General Season Thread II

[yoyojw17]

I really hoped he was gonna be our Corey Kispert... but who knows..

I didn’t realize his defense was THAT awful. I don’t put too much faith in individual defensive metrics, but, if he’s that hopeless defensively…he just won’t be back. His contract is non-guaranteed. They have to pull it by 6/30…I don’t think he’s back if Mose doesn’t see some defensive potential for the near future…we’re past the “raw prospect” phase, imo

Houstan will be back based on the fact that he's making 2M.. that's freaking pennies for a team who could need a cheap body to get to 14/15 man roster

And his rating is worst on our team.....
but doesn't look that bad on other teams

milwaukee.... he would have been 8th best on the team, after middleton. (i know pace and all is different)

But from the eye test He definitely tries though sometimes he will get caught ball-watching.

15 offers and 15 rejections damn that’s how bad LaVine’s contract is.

[RookieStar]

How many FRPs are they attaching Zach with?

[MartinsIzAfraud]

Caruso to OKC for Giddey

Woww OKC making another push

[sChOlaRlY_Magi]

Wow, and a straight up swap? Wiretap didn't show any other picks or players.

Yup

[sChOlaRlY_Magi]

How many FRPs are they attaching Zach with?

This is sort of an interesting would you rather...
Klay at 30 or Lavine at 46 and rising for 3 years?

Lol

Makes Klay look like a much better option to me!

I was on the fence about Klay too. Not after seeing Lavine's salary again.

I'm in the Murray camp. Or see if we can get Podz for CP3 and his contract for Fultz + filler.

Let CP3 retire a Magi, and maybe make him an assistant if he wants.

Let Podz, Cole and AB create the new hierarchy or probably ultimately trade Cole if he doesn't want to be 3rd string. Maybe make him the filler, but I really like Cole and want him to succeed with us if possible...

Both have injury history. One has better bbiq though and a sligthly cheaper price.

So who are you taking? Or make a case for Lavine. The little I saw him play, I was only impressed.

Klay is HOF.

And the economic option out of the two.

If Klay goes for a 2+1team option at 30mil/yr. Then i def go for that over the 3yr 46m/yr Zach even though he is younger.

Klays skillset in the volume 3pt shooting range is more in need than Zachs overall offense.

Same,I think the Lavine news makes Klay look much more palatable to us.

Woww OKC making another push

They are my West Coast favorite team!!!

.... But I'm hating em right now. Haha

[Ducklett]

Rumor has it Lavine is going to PHI by way of Utah, so I think this might be moot.

[fendilim]

MAGIC MONK sad.

[RookieStar]

Wow.. havent heard that before. BULLS really blowing it up.

Lavine’s deal is a killer to team being “prudent”…but if PG really isn’t coming, Lavine makes a lot of basketball sense for PHI. If you’re going all-in, he might be the dest available acquisition for PHI and it might work out. Can’t even ponder Lavine to ORL, but Morey’s got only one gear.

Nothing on Orlando resigning Hezonja yet?
