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.

http://blogs.orlandosentinel.com/sports_ma...oint-guard.html So, any thoughts on who you'd like to see the Magic pursue? I know this might sound crazy...but what if we had Iverson as Nelson's back-up? Too many locker room problems? I wouldn't want Nelson to feel like his job was in jeopardy, but still, it's interesting to think about. I know Iverson has expressed that he wants to start somewhere next season, but since very few teams are interested he might change his tone... Most likely we'll go after one of the lesser players, which makes sense. |

Well apparently a CJ Watson deal was in the works, and we offered AJ. I am a bit confused at this as we are looking for a 3rd point guard, and we attempted giving up our 2nd point guard for him. The way it looks now is that the title of this post should be 2nd or 3rd point guard option. http://realgm.com/src_wiretap_archives/611...fer_for_watson/ |

If AJ was going to be involved in the trade for Watson, then the intent was probably to make Watson the backup and bring in someone like Wilks to fill the 3rd spot. I'd love Flip Murray. And I don't want any part of Jacques Vaughn. Too many bad memories there. |

Flip would be my definite first choice over some of the other guys named. Maybe I'm wrong but I would assume he has a higher price tag and might not like being 3rd string. |

If we get Flip, I doubt he'd be the third string. The grumpy one would probably AJ. |

Yeah, thats true. Both of them wouldn't like the demotion to 3rd. |

Rocks blocking shots on guys with dreadlocks

So we offered the warriors a backup PG AND a first round pick and they still said no? First of all I think we offered way too much for a guy thats the 3rd string point guard on that team. Second the warriors are complete idiots for not taking that trade if Watson ends up just signing the qualifying offer and bolting after this season anyways. |

BTW about that list, anybody remember when jaque vaughn was our starting PG in the Tmac days? Talk about rajon rondo without the freakishly long arms and speed and you get jaque vaughn. |

Jason William's chances of going to Orlando is high. I think he will help our team a little more in terms of depth. |

Here was Otis' quote from the workout:
Not too promising. I read somewhere that he worked out for another team recently and he did not look good at all. |

Murray plays SF/SG. Nate Robinson is the guy we should get. |
