We make trades, over. If we do not make any major moves, then slightly under but with this board, who knows... :lol:

Threes are fine...WHEN OPEN! Nothing wrong with mid range jumpers, cutting, and more varieties of the pick n roll. I'd like to see JRich in post some.

C - Howard / Orton
PF - Davis / Anderson / Harper
SF - Hedo / Q-Rich / (Clark)
SG - J-Rich / Redick / Hughes / Liggins
PG - Nelson / Duhon / Pruitt / Wafer

Overload of guards lol :lol: That's 16 players including Clark, we need to cut a few off the squad I believe we should get down to 14 to give us some flexibility. Harper can play a few spot up minutes at C so as long as Orton is healthy and can play our backup C position shouldn't be a problem.

The main questions are will Davis/Anderson be enough at the 4? Which guards do we unload? Who do we package for Dwight's "wishlist player"...

when it came to Stan personally i was a neutral i saw both the good and the bad things about him but his offense was really wearing me thin these past few years and the straw that broke the camel's back was in the Atlanta series after losing a couple games Stan essentially threw his hands up and said "Well the shots will fall eventually" when he said those words i almost broke my Plasma because i threw the remote so hard at it....Those words are not what you want your coach to say....Basically means if the shots don't fall...WE HAVE NO PLAN B...NO CONTINGENCY PLAN....Which brings me back to me saying his offense is predictable and i have been saying that on these boards since last season

Harper will be killed at the 3. Also, I have no hope that Orton will contribute anytime soon.

I don't see both Prutt and Hughes making the team. Max is one of them. We badly need backup at PG and C.

I know its do or die time for the magic but I would really like to wait and hold on to the mle and give wilson chandler the full at max years ( I think 4) I think he could be the sf that the team desperately needs, barring a miraculous come back by mr. Turk.

A lot of questions...Answers anyone?


There's a reason he was available in the second round. He has some potential, but I think you're kidding yourself if you expect him to have an impact this year. Maybe in a year or two, if he develops.

Harper is playing the 4? If Orton doesn't see minutes again then our backup C is definitely a problem (MLE comes in here?). I beleive either JJ or Anderon (or both) will be leaving the team soon, Hughes will make the team and share backup minutes at the 2 with Liggins. Pruitt will be the odd man out and get cut.

Not likely, Anderson would need to be added and maybe a pick

Your joking right? Seriously... this has to be the most idiotic thing i've ever seen.
How can you possibly be serious??



Orlando needs a first round pick back at the very least.
