Orlando Shuffle


Chaos

Recommended Posts

Well, I guess MJ didn't come through. Orlando looks to be dealing Rashard Lewis to Washington for Arenas, and is also sending Vince Carter, Pietrus, and Gortat to Phoenix for J-Rich, Earl Clark, Turkoglu.

Talk about blowing up a team.

WTF???

wow, the Magic could have just gotten a lot better. I'm not sold on the Arenas for Lewis trade though; high risk, righ reward. I wouldn't buy the Kielbasa.

I think the Suns are giving up on this season. I wonder what Steve Nash is thinking right now after losing Amare then Richardson.

Jameer Nelson

J-Rich

Hedo Turkoglu

Dwight Howard

Brandon Bass

Gilbert Arenas

Malik Allen

They're building a squad down there. Florida is a power state this year. The Magic have regretted Hedo from day one. Carter just couldn't facilitate their offense the way Hedo was able to.

Now that Orlando needs a backup center, maybe they will trade for Diop......

If Charlotte is going to blow up their team, trading Jax for Carter would have made the most sense. And just for reference, I hate Vince Carter but we could have taken his 16 mill off the books at the end of the year.

Gortat would have been nice. We would have had to taken Lewis to get him though, I bet, and give up Gerald Wallace in the trade.

No way we just get Gortat for free, and he's the most appealing player in that deal other than Lewis and Arenas. And both are bad for the team for their own separate reason.

We'd have had to give up something nice just to get Gortat. You can bet he was thrown in just to get then to sign off on taking Lewis. Gortat makes Lewis' contract almost worth it.

    • I presented that scenario because this is a home game and we seemed to have improved in some capacity in that area as of recently. The problem with the possibility of sweeping the Bucs is this team has had a habit of quickly falling victim to momentum shifts. The Bucs are coming off a bitter loss the same as the Panthers but the Bucs have a much better proven track record this time of year and they have performed when the pressure is on unlike our Panthers. We have a shot against the Seahawks here in BOA but that is a matchup that could quickly get out of hand because they are a well coached team and that goes back to the momentum shifts I mentioned. I just don't see this team beating the Bucs in their stadium to close the season. Tall order to say the least.
    • I’d give it another year for Sanders and Evans, I don’t much care what you do with Tremble’s spot. Let him have another year or maybe replace him. Haven’t looked at his contract so that may be the determining factor. 
    • Following the crazy up down pattern we finish 9-8 with an improbable sweep of TB, and lay an egg in the home playoff game.  I don’t know if I can sign on to sweeping TB but I suppose it’s possible, they aren’t really that good this year.    ps I can buy beating TB Sunday and losing to Seattle.  Then it just gets to can you fluke one game. Any given Sunday. So we’ll see.
