That's the dream. Give me Jackson/Tatum the first then trade up for Giles/Collins/Patton top it off with a Gaurd in the 2nd Bacon/Trier/Mitchell
Next order of business is to move Vuc and Evan for a big. Then sign Holliday/Teague/Hill.
Seems like NBA2k style moves to me. Doubt we ever see that many moves in Magicland.
Are you forgetting what we did last summer. Was that 2K style as well.

What you referring to involves 3 massive moves which is about unheard of. I doubt the Magic does more than 1 major move after what they did last summer which was trade for Ibaka and sign Bizmark. Thus, one big move and you are alluding to something that is quite drasticly more. I think there is a snowballs chance in hell of something like that happening outside of a video game setting.

Provin Ya'll Wrong!!!

Pelicans and Suns won today. Devin Booker took over in the fourth quarter.

Re: Tankapolooza: UPDATED 3/7/17; 09:58 EST
Just looking over the remaining schedule and it looks like we're going to be picking in the 6-8 range. Can't be too upset with that i guess but with the way Tatum has looked lately it's going to suck losing out on yet another tier 1 prospect
Tier 1
Fultz
Jackson
Ball
Tatum
Tier 2
Monk
Isaac
Foxx
Ntilikina
Markannen
Bridges
I think Isaac/DSJ will be the pick at he end of he day.

3 of next 4 are on the road against the Kings, Suns, and Sixers. Have to lose all of those. Keep playing that bench for longer periods than they should, and we should be alright.

These next set of games may make or break our path towards a top 5 pick. Vogel will come through though with his garbage rotations and game management. All of those 3 teams mentioned have been playing pretty solid for the most part, they just don't have the experience yet. Going to be an interesting week ahead.

I'd do backflips if we lose all of those but I don't see it. Id be happy for losing 2 outta those 3. Beating the Sixers and losing the others is most likely. If we win all 3 that be devastating

Knicks just gave up 40 1st quarter points to the Nets. How can you beat that tank? Too strong

Yep, the Knicks and kings are coming in hot for our pick. If the kicks take out spot in the top 5 I'll be very let down. They already snagged KP from us

Charlotte based on their top ten defense, point differential, && virtually every other statistic is a top 6 team in the east. They just haven't won close games and have battled injuries.
Kings have lost eight in a row and the Knicks have given up all hope. This team is still trying to win every chance they can.

We just lost to the Knicks twice in a week. We are just as bad as those teams if not worse

Let's hope for everyone's sake that youre right. This week will decide our fate. If we beat the Suns Philly && kings then a 7-8 pick it is.
