Not mad, just sad to see him go. Too many young SGs on the roster.

Ditto. Love Victor, he might be the missing piece to OKC winning a title. I wish we had kept him.

I love you, Victor.
11/18/2017 - I have officially disowned Nikola Vucevic and branded him a loser.

- Skal Labissiere was my guy in 2016 pre-trade. Whoops, but I still believe.
- Malik Monk was my guy in 2017. Whoops(?)
- Mo Bamba was my guy in 2018. TBD.

I'm so depressed by this trade. Gonna miss Victor. Enjoyed watching him play and he represented this franchise so well.

As an Orlando fan with somewhat similar ties (immigrant Nigerian parents) imma miss him due to what he represented. He was a budding top 15 SG in a league that has a dearth in that position and losing him will be somewhat sour(at least we aren't forcing him into a PG role anymore). This means we straight up need Fournier to sign back or we will be tossing Mario into the fire

He disappointed. Less feathery, more efficiency please. Oh well, not his fault he was the #2 pick in a crap draft.

Where to start...

Thanks for the great years, Vic. You are the reason I became a mega-super-fan, whereas before you I was just a super-fan. You are my favorite player of all time for many reasons, but mostly because you loved the same team that I love(d?). I was born into a huge Magic family, and my favorite player out of hundreds was you... Feel like I just got dumped by my first love seeing you get traded... You will be always be missed and it is such a shame that we couldn't prove to the world how great you were going to be for the Magic under Vogel...

Thanks Vic. Definitely some highlights during a down period. Good luck man, hope you can piece it all together and help take out the Warriors.
