yessssir. and like someone said. j rich will be an expiring. But I can't believe we got Earl Clark. Kid has loads of talent. Just needs to harness it.

The only problem is that Hedo's PO is for the summer of 2013 if I'm reading it correctly. That doesn't help us much.

Yes, kid can be VERY good.

I love this deal. Even if Hedo is mediocre streaky at best, Arenas and J-Rich is way better than Carter and Rashard in my eyes. Gives Bass, Ryno, Clark more minutes.
Redick gets shafted a bit though. :(

Our new lineup has a lot of flexibility. If we bring Hedo off the bench we would finally have someone that can create offense in that all bench lineup.

As far as I can remember, he only waived his trade kicker, not his player option.

Correct, not sure who is in the free agent crop that year.

I wonder what Dwight will be like with the press after everything is said and done. And this also gives us time to gel instead of doing it at the trade deadline.

I would have Arenas start at PG and bring Jameer off the bench... but I'm so happy right now, I'll let Stan try to figure it out before I crucify him some more. 8-)

if hedo is coming back and they are hoping he returns to old form, they should take a chance on lewis getting there two, with the line up of nelson,jrich,hedo,lewis,howard and try to rekindle the magic of two years ago. If lewis still sucks then trade for arenas at feb. deadline

Nelson/Rich/Hedo/Shard/Dwight is 2009 style basketball.

Per ESPN: The Orlando Magic, already in serious trade talks with the Washington Wizards about acquiring Gilbert Arenas, have agreed to a deal in principle with the Phoenix Suns, according to league sources.

The trade returns former Magic star Hedo Turkoglu, along with Jason Richardson and Earl Clark, to Orlando in exchange for Vince Carter, Mickael Pietrus, a 2011 first-round pick and cash considerations.

So am I. He is the our core along with Dwight. Favorite Magic player of mine. Also like you said, Clark can become a star in this league. He will. Just watch folks.

Forget that. Lewis needs to go, and we need Arenas. The old Magic team didn't work.
