Hell to the know. They would have to giver is a 1st just to take those horrible contracts. I still can't believe they maxed Turner.


Mccollum would give us that 22 plus per game scorer though. They don't grow on trees.If we want to keep Gordon here we would have to do something for Portland in order for them to be motivated to make that trade. Just how it is.


I have no problem seeing McCollum getting 25+ ppg efficiently as the primary scorer on a team. This is the exact reason why the suggested trades are fairly laughable. McCollum isn't a good defender, but he's not actually as bad as some would make him out to be. He's totally hideable i.e. Curry. These are all reasons why the Magic have almost zero chance to pick him up without giving up major high importance assets. If you're willing to live with giving it up for CJ, it's probably not enough. If it REALLY, REALLY hurts to give it up, you're on the right path.

Off the bench = Magic losses. For this game = a win.

The forthcoming @Jazz game seems critical. A win and there is hope. A loss and the team seems hopeless.

Magic won games with him in the bench too. Not a great example. Safe to say, we need both Centers to play well.

About Saviour Meeks:

The game was tied 90-90 and it was Meeks who broke the deadlock that would be decisive.

In Meeks we trust !!!!

Vooch is my favorite player on the team but even I would consider a trade for CJ. But, I would be terrified with just Bizmark as our only true center.

Someone should annoy Elf before every game because i swear he plays better when he's a little ticked. :lol:

I don't think he is that good yet. Maybe, in a few years.

As a backup, he could be ready sooner than he would be ready as a starter.
