Gamethread: Magic vs Bucks 02/10

[Patrick1978]

Mario really playing good the last time
I think birch should be the first big of the bench even when vucevic is back

Unfortunately, that will not happen. Biz contract is already untradeable and cutting him out of the rotation would pretty much solidify that and we would be 100% stuck with him. His contract will keep him on the floor, unfortunately.

I do agree that Birch needs to be in the rotation next season. I expect one of Biz or Vuc to be gone in the offseason. Most likely Vuc since he will be on his last year and not sure team will want to re-sign him for more money. I dont expect Vuc to be back next year.

May be we see a draft day trade of vuc for a mid first round pick

We should target Bucks or Wizards for trading Vučević.

Orlando sends: Nikola Vucevic + Suns 2018 2nd round pick

Washington sends: Marcin Gortat + Wizards 2018 1st round pick


Makes a lot of sense for both teams

How about 2020 top 5 protected pick instead?

Of course, are they going to give a 2020 top 5 protected pick? will they be worse in 2 years than this summer? I'm not so sure, they'd have a team of vets with Wall, Beal, Porter, Oubre, Vucevic

I'm betting on one of Wall/Beal asking for a trade by then.

That would be great but I dont think there are many sane GMs out there that will give a lottery pick for one year of Vuc.

May be a pick from 20 to 30

I can see that happening. I can see a team like MIL or BOS doing that deal.

Yes vucevic could be a good option for the bucks and celtics
