He should be the first number we retire. I say we retire 1.1 in honor of his salary for this year.
I live rent free in your head. You know who you are :D

Not changing this sig until Magic win a championship. Started 6/26/2015.

Chris, even if it was just a brief moment together, I'd like to thank you for your positive contributions in helping us reach the salary floor.

Orlando is to far under the cap to be consistent with the Player's Union requirements of the CBA. This was an accounting move to "increase" Orlando's payroll.

I always thought Copeland was pretty good. I'm surprised he can't find a team.

If the Magic were so far under the cap, why didn't they sign Bargs or a higher priced player then cut them?

Seems like a dick move by management. Why so eager to reach the salary floor? Are you really that opposed to just splitting the money between our actual players?

This forum needed a good laugh.

Down for retiring his number, we could all stare at Nick Anderson while it goes up...

If his defense were a little better Skiles would have played him more. Best of luck in the future.

Who was the first player in Magic history to never play a game for Orlando?

Spoiler:
..

Jim Farmer, the 19th player selected in the 1989 expansion draft.
