Someone gets it.

I'm hoping we use the TPE for a bad deal a team is looking to shed with an attached lotto pick to it. Free agency isn't important for another 2-3 years atleast.

I would like to get some 2014 1rst round picks, 2014 looks like it could be a special draft

Any rationale person knew Dwight was a goner since the beginning of the offseason. Welcome back from fairy tale land.


Yep however it was funny to see him make post after post on how there is no way Dwight will leave this team and that we are fools to believe otherwise. Glad he's on my ignore list now.

+1 to both. We have some decent trade pieces, but I don't want vets. Picks on picks on picks.

FYI. They heavily solicited season ticket renewels the week after all-star break and Dwight opted in. So, many fans got duped. Anyways, there are many fans that are seeking refunds, but the Magic are not giving out any refunds.

I know 2014 Wiggins is the prize player, but I like Cris Walker and Kasey Hill to.

Goes through each part of the trade and what happened financially speaking.

Our Ryno TPE is all gone now. Bass TPE is left over at $1,018,040 mil after using it to acquire Ayon & Harkless....

Gotta check out the link to see what Dwight was traded for. Funny just reading it.

Count me in as my first disappointment with Hennigan if he doesn't resign Liggins. That would be a blow to their supposed scouting and development acumen. Liggins doesnt have to have a team easily, or be a offensive player, but overall, he looks like he can be an elite defender and savvy offensive player.

Yeah that was obviously lopsided in the Lakers favor but I'm certain we didn't get that large TPE just to let it go to waste. I'm really excited honestly to see how we will use that TPE going forward.

So in simplistic terms, Howard was traded for Nikola Vucevic and whatever that massive TPE yields over the next year.

Rob is a boss in how he constructed the trade to generate a $17M TPE. Whoa! If he really came up with this complicated transaction to generate this huge asset, we are in good hands. Imagine Otis, lol.

The TPE supposedly cant be used if under the cap, because remember, we are still over the cap but under the luxury. This explains why Jameer's, Harrington's deals are not so bad in retrospect. Hennigan already has about 18mil in immediate, truest form of cap space savings with that TPE. It's such a big TPE and piece, that it must be used and not expired, even if it's for a couple minor deals.

Nice, I was thinking about doing the same with Hill. Those 2 were lethal in AAU ball.

I like at the end how he brought up we might become facilitators in a trade deadline deal with our TPE where we take a bad contract and get picks.
