You can save money by not having to purchase tickets or magic jerseys. Does that help?

Remember when people were applauding Rob for staying the course and not caving in to **** deals and waiting for D-Mo?

for wat it is worth on NBA 2k12 with roster updates i massively remade the magic in 1 year of rebuilding/Tanking.

got like 15 first round picks for 2012 computer generated draft, eric gordon, Austin Rivers, Anthony davis, and a bunch of other guys. was a real youmg team and got 1-4, 6-14 and some scattered picks at the end.

Redick vs. Affalo

The new debate.

That isn't a debate.

According to ESPN Trade Machine the Lakers can't take on Dwight, Duhon, Earl in this trade, even if they send out Eyenga...so something has to budge a lil.

Trade the best player, get the worst players.

The Rob Hennigan Way.

So as of this moment, it looks like this?

Orlando Incoming:

Arron Afflalo
Al Harrington
Nikola Vucevic
Mo Harkless
Christian Eyenga (maybe)
3 possibly 4 firsts...all protected, one of which can't occur until 2017 (LAL(
Some vague mention of 2nd rounders

Orlando Outgoing:

Dwight Howard
Jason Richardson
Chris Duhon
Earl Clark
Some damnable rumor about Nicholson

Does this sum it up? Anybody looked at salary/roster spots and all that?

You're right, it's like 2 million off I think.

I seem to doubt that at this point.

What would you guys think of the NBA having a hardcap of somewhere between 80-100 mill and removing max contracts?

IGotDaMagicInMe · Post #1057 » by **IGotDaMagicInMe** » Fri Aug 10, 2012 5:01 am

Im even to the point where I'll accept this, but i draw the line at nicholson. . .if henny is such a great evaluator at talent, you think he'd find a way to keep his first freaking pick. I'm losing the faith Henny. . .

Hard cap should be 60million not a penny more
