Official Speculation Thread (Pt. XXV: Offseason Edition)

[Nemesis21]

I have seen both Kendall Marshall and Moe Harkless names been talked about numerous times in this thread so I pose this question: Assuming Orlando moves up to the top 10 picks and both are available who do you choose to go with?

My answer would be Kendall Marshall because of not wanting to pass up the opportunity to get a game changing PG.

You would have to be Otis Smith to not pick Marshall if you move up.

[arkknight1988]

i like jeff taylor and think he would be a safe pick, turk just can't bring it anymore. if we get a gm from the spurs org. ill be confident in their draft decision.

[mattyBoi]

Jeff Taylor looks like a great prospect, he is definitely and NBA player.

He's heard that one before

[IGotDaMagicInMe]

He's an ass, always has been and always will be, but I would gladly take him on the team.

Not me, I would rather miss the playoffs than to watch garnett lead us to a championsip.
The guy is a disgrace to basketball.

Wow

[BelgianMagic]

As somene else already said, KG/Pierce (& sometimes Rondo) can be arrogant, they are players who you hate to play against, but love to have on your team. They never do anything without a reason.

They're tough, they always play hard & they can get under their opponents' skin. We have 0 players on our roster who do all 3 of them. And to beat Miami, mentally a very weak team, you have to get under their skin. That's how 50yr olds KG/Pierce beat Miami

I'd never call them a disgrace to basketball, cause they play hard, they play nice basketball & they win. I have more problems with LeBron's arrogance than KG's. KG would never claim he's the best thing since sliced bread without putting his money where his mouth is.

[The Effect]

KG is a piece of **** and paul pierces constant flopping/crying/cheap foul tricks has ruined the NBA, even when they play the magic i cant watch a boston game because of those 2. I dont care if they both join the magic and lead us to an NBA championship, they will never have my support. I hate both so much that i would actually stop watching the nba instead of cheer for them

Personally i cant wait til both are out of the nba for good

[NickAnderson]

My god some of you are crazy, KG would do wonders for this team even at his age.

[AgEnT50]

I HATE KG, but I'd welcome him on the Magic. This team needs some toughness! KG at the 4 & D12 at the 5 would be epic defensively. Can you imagine how difficult it would be to score on those two inside?

I thought I would never warm up to Glen Davis & he's now one of my favorite players. I'm sure the same would happen w/KG

[Bensational]

what do you guys hate about KG? what's he done that's so unforgivable in your eyes?

[Neon1]

Jeff Taylor looks like a great prospect, he is definitely and NBA player.

I take Taylor 10 out of 10 times over Harkless, with eyes closed.

He was born!

[CourtsideTV]

[Nyce_1]

Can we please stop talking about KG? Dude is not leaving boston and will retire a Celtic. He loves it up there and he's too loyal to ring chase with another team. lol @ the thought of him playing for the magic for vet minimum....and on a 1 year deal.

[MagicTime1]

Signing KG in the summer would definitely be a huge help for our team to get by another year before being able to sign some huge free agents next summer. As much as I dislike KG like the rest of you, if you thought logically this would be a great addition to the Magic, as well as keeping our fantastic leader happy hahaah!

[MagicTime1]

This probably would be off the wall, but do you guys think that Sacramento would ever make this deal.

Sac sends: Tyreke Evans, Chucky Hayes, Francisco Garcia
Sac Receives: Hedo Turkoglu, Jason Richardson, Ryan Anderson, Earl Clark and a future 1st rd pick

Why for Sacramento: They bring back a fan favorite in Turk, and the hometown boy in Ryan Anderson who would compliment Cousins as much as he did for Dwight, Jason Richardson can bring in some veteren leadership along with Turk and Earl is a stud in the making, and would bring hustle to the young Kings and the 1st rd pick would be the icing on the cake.

Orlando Sends: Hedo Turkoglu, Jason Richardson, Ryan Anderson, Earl Clark and future 1st rd pick
Orlando Receive: Tyreke Evans, Chucky Hayes, Franchisco Garcia

Why for Orlando: Tyreke would fit our need for the go to scorer when we need one and could create a great one two punch with Dwight, Chucky is undersized but he can get the job done playing back up center, and Francis Garcia can be a capable backup guard as well ( fills in Von Wafers spot )


Orlando Line:

PG: Evans, Duhon
SG: JJ Redick, Garcia, Liggins
SF: Free Agent (Alonzo Gee? ), Q Richardson
PF: KG? Glen Davis, Justin Harper
C: Dwight Howard, Hayes

With some free agent additions, the team wouldnt look too bad to compete in the playoffs.

[trebone]

^^^ I really dont like Tyreke so I would not do it, I think he is a complete black hole on offense and is not very efficient at that

[InFlames]

what do you guys hate about KG? what's he done that's so unforgivable in your eyes?

He was born!

He breathes my air.

[Carlos Arroyo]

u guys are crazy tyreke would be the best pg we have had in YEARS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
