why not at least invite this guy to TC? i think he is a serviceable big man (better than foyle in any way, shape, or form) he could give you 15-20 minutes a night easily and he can rebound and defend. not much of an offensive game but hey thats just what we need, a veteran big man, who can rebound and defend, has no need for the ball, and we can get him on the cheap (vets min.) that would give us a 5 and 4 rotation of;

5/howard/wright/foyle
4/lewis/battie/gortat

Hes a guy we could use. We need an active rebounder and defensive presence to play teams like Detroit, Philly, and the Raps.

:laugh: that's true. You'd be hard pressed to find many ppl in the league worse then Foyle, but he can be a good defensive presence due to his size. I would like to see us add some1 younger and more athletic tho. Wright is just, meh.

No way to Wright. I know a few Hawks fans who say this guy is just plain AWFUL. We don't need him and he isn't any better than Foyle which is saying something. Keep him away from our team. He is an old washed up scrub.

This is not a relevant conversation. The Magic look to make no more moves until the season (mid-season trade???).
