NOTE FROM THE FORUM OWNER:

We had a long, enjoyable run, and I would like to thank every Orlando Magic fan who contributed to our small community on the web. This message board will be left online as an archive into the thoughts and minds of a group of Magic fanatics who lived through a 21-win season, the drafting of Dwight Howard, and an eventual NBA Finals appearance.

Special thanks to our Staff Members: Black and Blue, MAGICMANEVAN, and NYCMagicFan!

What other buyout/released Players so far and Free-Agents would you like them try and sign?

Well, I wouldn't mind giving Flip Murray or Jamaal Magloire a tryout.

Other than that, can't think of anyone else.

We could have included Arroyo in the trade and then picked up Flip Murray as the PG injury insurance to Nelson/Dooling.

TO be fair, we had no idea the Pistons were waiving Murray.

I know, but my point is that we could still have addressed that position at the waivers.

I'm not sure Flip would work here either in my opinion. We need a good pass-first PG and he's more of a combo guard. Anyways, Jamaal would be a good fit here for CHEAP.

As expected, the Magic (I mean Otis) is not interested.

The Magic have repeatedly pursued veteran power forward P.J. Brown, but he has refused to come out of semi-retirement all season.
Atleast Otis has tried getting Brown repeatedly this season.

Seems like Otis does not give up easily.

Smith said he talked to P.J. Brown’s camp before the season started. "I already explored that option," he said. "And P.J. is retired."

Boston Herald -
The Boston Celtics have signed free agent P.J. Brown, according to the Boston Herald.

New Orleans and Dallas were also interested in signing Brown.

He played with the Bulls last season before entering semi-retirement.

:no: :@ What a liar.

Otis: Hey man, do you, um, want to play for us? Dwight...

P.J.: Yeah maybe hold on.

Celtics: Hey bro, we've got the big three, f the Magic.

P.J.: lol, yeah I know, just messing with them. Signed!

I guess it was an easy choice for PJ. The Celtics sure are serious about making a run and improve their already formidable lineup.

Meanwhile our GM is "happy" with our roster - so yeah, easy choice for a veteran who wants to win.

Sucks. PJ is just looking for a ring the easiest way possible. I wrote about it today on the THF site, and had completely forgotten about Otis' comment until just now.

Hopefully we are the team that knocks PJ and the Celts on their rear come playoff time.

I think that Dallas, Nets, and Magloire already had an agreement in place. Magloire is unofficially part of the Kidd Trade.

How about bringing Bo Outlaw back for the playoffs run?
