It should have been obvious to everyone that the moment we hired Rob we were going to blow it up.

I expect another deal in the near future for Orlando to work out the rotations. Trade some PFs for a backup PG. Harrington is a name that come to mind.

In the 18 games this kid got over 20 mpg, he averaged 10/7 in 25 mpg as a rookie from Europe, and he's only 21.

He's a GOOD young player.

This trade is better than anything else put forth so far besides the imaginary Houston deal, Hennigan is not an idiot if the Houston deal had been better than this we would have taken it. The picks are all better than picks we would have gotten from BK by around 10 spots, Vucevic and Harkless are good young prospects and Affalo is certainly a decent piece and the kind of player every team needs. The only black mark on this trade is Harrington.

I do not advise anyone going to the General Board. Ignorant people everywhere.
