I don't understand. The Magic have to be getting more back than what's being reported.

Afflalo has 3 years 23 mil and a PO year left on his contract, Harrington has 3 years 22 mil, and Vucevic is not that good. Yeah they're getting 3 first round picks and Moe Harkless but unless they can keep rolling those picks over they're not going to be very good anytime soon.

With all the previously rumored deals, this doesn't make any sense from the Magic's perspective. LA, Philly and Denver are getting great deals here and Orlando is getting 2 bad contracts and a few picks.

The rumored deals obviously weren't real proposed deals, or Hennigan waited way to long to pull the trigger. My bet is the rookie GM make a rookie mistake. OH and Harrington isn't exactly a bad contract, it's only partially guaranteed after this year....

Didn't the Magic GM come from San Antonio? Aren't they all supposed to be geniuses with great basketball minds? Smh, this guy was the dummy of the group. He just got hosed. Had a better offer from the Nets, and decides to take the crap offered to him by the Lakers. Didn't even get Bynun out of the deal smh. Every team in this deal just made a come up except Orlando.

No offer that includes Lopez on a max deal is a better offer. That offer was poo to, this is just better poo since they got two good young prospects in Vucevic and Harkless, and a younger (27) guy who can actually ball in AA. Harrington isn't terrible because his contract is only partially guaranteed. Plus it seems like Hedo may have been absorbed into Denver's TPE so their worst contract is gone along with Duhon and Earl Clark heading to L.A. according to Spears....

      Panthers Preseason

      Ideally Bryce and the other starters should get at least a full quarter and an argument could be made for 2 full quarters given how they've played early in the season the last few years.

      Barnwell - Ranking WR, TE, RB Groups in NFL

      By CRA · Posted

      A rookie that has never played a snap and a proven 1000K NFL WR are not going to be viewed the same in these type rankings.  And calling draft picks, lotto picks, isn't some new quip I just invented.  take the big 3 Hubbard, AT, insert whatever 3rd Panther you want vs Kamara, Hill, Olave.  Most football folks outside of Carolina are picking the Saints there IMO.

      Barnwell - Ranking WR, TE, RB Groups in NFL

      By WUnderhill · Posted

      You didn’t really address the point, just like you ignored the point about the RBs initially, and saying “they are all lotto picks” is just a really silly reduction because you could say that about literally any player rookie or vet every snap, every game, every year. It is well known that different positions have different hit rates, and I would argue different types of prospects within position groups as well, and that hit rates change the further down in the draft you go. Everybody knows QB is different and that, for example, first round OL have a really high success rate. Using your lotto ticket analogy…again…you are saying a lotto ticket with a 1 in 100 chance of hitting is the exact same thing as a lotto ticket with a 1 in 2 chance of hitting (this is an example, don’t take these odds literally). The point was he is no more of a lotto ticket than the 31yr old receiver coming off a major knee injury, and in my opinion he is better odds with a higher potential “jackpot”. Saying one player is an “lotto ticket” while another isn’t is just not sound logic. You have no idea who will break out, regress, get injured, etc. There are safer bets than others, that’s all. I don’t think Diggs is a safe bet and even if he was, weighing him over all of the Panthers WRs plus 2 1k rushers is just dumb. You can disagree if you want. The list is stupid.
