Hoping the same but I would suspect that there is a different level you have to achieve as an athlete :)


Meniscus ( MCL) and , anterior cruciatum ligament ( ACL) tears are not same.
MCL is far easier to repair and can litrally be removed.

I had my meniscus issue in same time one of guys i knew from gym tore his ACL, even on first sight you can see how much more painful and awful ACL injury is.

I’m sure they subject players to the most stringent standards, especially WeHam’s prized possession.

Interesting reading that Carmelo Anthony could be targeted on a one-year deal to fill out the missing forward slot of Isaac.

I guess the question is if his game would compliment the starters, or if he would be a major-minutes bench player. But on a vet-min deal, I would like his nearly certain 10+ ppg.

where you seeing this? Orlando has to find another F because there no way Cliff is going to start Okeke or TRoss or Aminu. Those 3 are 7-9th men off the bench IMO. I doubt Clark or Ennis are in Orlando as they're going to get MLE type deals vs 1 year deals.

Fultz
Fourn
F?
AG
Vuc

Bench: Guard, TRoss, Okeke Aminu Birch/Mo.
A scoring guard.. never heard of one. :roll:

We are a 7-9 team so it's not going to surprise me to see aminu out there with AG if he's still around. Aminu can easily fill the Isaac role on the team as Issac wasn't really asked to do much. Only difference is Aminu is nowhere near the defender issac is. Isaac's role primarily was just defend, run in transition and cut.... That's it, aminu can do that easily just maybe not as well.

Why can't Aminu be a starter? He was basically a starter for 4 years before coming to Orlando. Not saying he is excellent, but he can fill this role until Isaac comes back in the other season. I am totally fine trading AG for someone who can score at 2/3.

I'd be really happy to see Magic signing Melo. But where did you hear that rumor?

You must be shutting out the terrible memory of Aminu's performances last year. He was f'ing awful. He shot 29%/23%/66%... hell, I didn't remember just how terrible he was until looking up those numbers just now. My god... and we're stuck with him.

Because he had a PER of 7 while shooting 29/25/66... He had to have been one of the worst regular rotation players for a playoff team last year.

no i remember.....like i said though, not as well....... though that may have been an understatement.....though when you're only asked to defend, run and cut how complicated is that really? that is the JI role in clifford's scheme....Aminu can do those things....to what degree though remains to be seen

Not a fan, but whatever....I'm so hyped for an exciting offseason that I'd back almost anything...Let's be honest, he'll basically be the best player on the team day 1 if he's in shape and motivated to put up numbers.

I think watching a 36-year-old Melo shoot 20 times a night off iso's for this team would be the absolute final nail in the coffin for my fandom.

At least we be scoring. I think watching this bench play some offense is more painful.

Iwundu, Bamba, Aminu, Ross and DJ :(

I have liked Augustin and Ross as scorers off of the bench. I think Orlando's limitations has been about post scoring from the second unit, and most of that has fallen on Bamba's poor development.
