I'm not mad at this. It would be a big gamble but too good to pass up. If PG walks we still have our 2019 pick and possibly the Lakers pick to rebuild with. 
I'd imagine it would take AG + Vuc + 2017 pick + Future pick to snag PG. Say we do pull off a DJ + Green for RJ and Baynes swap. Sign Milsap to show PG we're serious about winning. Use the Clipper pick on a big to mold behind Milsap. We still have the flexibility to make a move down the line if we don't get off to a good enough start. Fournier Payton and Hezonja are solid trade chips. I like this team tho.
Jackson/Payton/Rookie 
Ross/Fournier/Wilcox 
George/Hezonja/Rookie 
Milsap/Baynes/Hartenstien 
Biyombo/FA/Zimmerman
 
I'm shocked that after all this failure of cashing in assets for things that were reach from gates , people still want to make a moves that only make team better short term, and in reality that lead to 6# seed at best.
Why da F would you want to trade away top 3 pick this year to get injuried, not so great when he is healthy Jackson? Dude is definition of average starter on his position. He is better than Payton but on greater scale it really doesn't say much. And there is reason why SVG wants to trade him anyway.That dude knows what he is doing, unlike Rob.
This years draft has some really nice players that can be stars and who can be better players than Jackson.
You won't get Paul George, Vogel got fired because he wanted George to play PF, and George in public basically said-  he won't.
Milsap was good player to target in FA 3 years ago. Today he is 32 years old. No thank you.
Magic should : hold on pick, draft PG , let Payton start and rookie play off bench, in mean time find a trade partner for Vučević to get another younger player at wing or actually two way center and build from a ground. This team is too bad to cash in anything. They ruined one rebuild by trading assets for top 50 protected lottery picks , let's not be braindead again.
