He has a player option for next season. If he opts out, do you see the Magic coming after him? He'd be an upgrade from any of our starting SG options. maybe we can give him a part of our MLE.

he's a good defender who's not afraid to rough it up. He can be our "enforcer", sending messages to other teams' players who try to hurt dwight. from what i hear, he's a good presence to have in the locker room too.

Never liked him, but he can be a good contributor I guess. It comes down to money probably...

Yes explain why the Magic need another SF, not a SG.

My best answer is NO

I've always liked him, but we don't need another sf. We need a sg, pf, and a point.

If we are going to put a sf at the two, I'd just assume that we went with Hedo and get a pf instead. Posey doesn't have very good ball handling skills, he's really best suited at sf.

Posey would be nice as a bench player at either spot depending on if we're going big or small. Posey plays really good defense, he can rebound pretty well, he's good in transition, and can shoot the ball, especially the three...he's a role player, something this team needs more of...plus he doesnt back down and plays physical...

The Magic does not need anymore SF's don't they have enough as it is. What the Magic needs is a real PG and a PF to help Dwight on the boards and is young enough to run the court unlike the Magic's current PF's who get tired real fast and are really slow running the court other then Dwight.
There are a lot of PF's that fit that bill in the draft this year and guess what the Magic don't have to draft a player from overseas to fit this model.

For now in the PG spot a pickup of a good backup PG like in Chris Duhon who can play defense. Another choice is Sean Dockery who just helped his French team win it's championship he is 6'3" just another body to look at for that slot.

Posey does play the 4 for celts sometimes. I think he would be a great addition to the team. Hard nosed defender that and can hit the three and he's a champion.

No thanks, not sexy enough.

sure. why not?

posey is basically everything that mo was supposed to be for us.

i doubt the C's left him go, though.

veteran swingmen who can play defense and nail the 3 aren't exactly rare commodities.
