I like this trade for the Magic and that was a great move. Hedo has really come on and doing what the Lakers do, giving the ball to Kobe and making him pg and saying, go and create, Orlando did with Hedo. It created bad probs for teams. The Lakers just had to much fire pwer for them. Lewis a good shooter with height, Howard is a monster in the middle, Hedo moving around like a pg with the ball is hard to guard, plus he is tall and now Carter that can shoot, drive or dunk. Then they have some good young guys.
Hedo better resign and stay as his chances for a title at Orlando with Howard, Carter and Lewis is about as good as anywhere. It will drain them to keep Hedo but if it was anyway to snag them a really good big man to back up Howard or that big Polish guy even get better and he was good this team is dangerous. What a battle and if Hedo stays it is a toss up with Orlando, Cleveland and Boston in the east. This might push Chicago to make a major move. Chicago has talent but can't get good for some reason. They did do good in the playoffs. The Nets, just going to flounder around it looks like. |

If we got the 5th pick, we would have select Rubio..

We drafted Mullens. I'm iffy on this pick. Hope we do something during free agency.
[edit] haha right after I post this, he gets traded. Last edited by Itachi; 06-26-2009 at 01:31 PM. Reason: Traded this pick |

got rid of Mullens for Beabois who is in France never to see the States. Yet another Euro stashing by Donnie Nelson.

Just imagine VC starting and having JET coming off the bench for him.
C'mon Donnie let's make some moves.

Hoping we can pry Redd away. He's a huge talent that is very attainable right now. If we can get him and a quality low post threat we'll be set.

I love Redd, but I'd really like someone who's better at defense...

(because Redd is a step up from JET on offense, but he's shockingly a step down on defense, even with a longer frame...)

Redd's knees are probably done. I rather go for someone like Gerald Wallace at this point.

 And Redd is a sizable step up on the offensive end.

Terry - 19.6 PPG / .463 FG% / .880 FT% / .366 3P% Redd - 21.2 PPG / .455 FG% / .814 FT% / .366 3P%

No to Redd and his knees. Worried w/ this talk of Jordan buying the Bobcats there won't be any movement with them for awhile...
