    Kept the players who contributed to a 47 win team. Moved the starting two guard to the bench. Added a 2x Champion Starting 2Guard. Drafted an upgrade over Chuma Okeke. Magic had a solid if not “sexy” summer. Maintained cap flexibility, kept draft picks, and traded 0 young guys. This is the type of “boring” summer you want your front office to consistently have.
    Also l just don’t believe Franz is a 28% shooter. All the indicators are that he should be average at least. I think last year was the outlier. I think Franz will have a nice bounce back season.

      Agreed! KCP has what alot of players that were even available don't have. 2 Rings.
      I predict a big jump in Jett Howard which gives us two 6"8 shooters with Da Silva.
      Slide Suggs back to PG with KCP as your front court and that's dangerous

    Practical basketball fans have seen Magic's growth YOY. We are so accustomed to seeing star players speed date that we have conflated player development with being stagnant. Paul George would have required a max contract and there was no room with Paolo/Franz. Klay has an injury history and KCP is a better option in terms of cost, age and defense. This has been a measured approach to a budding franchise and no sophisticated NBA insider would deny the Magic are a top four seed in the east barring injury. If PB, FW and JS take the next step you could argue they are a potential two seed.

    • @13cozmik
      @13cozmik 3 місяці тому

      a high volume shooting point/combo guard like Steph Curry, Donovan Mitchell, Anfernee Simons would be ideal, but none are on the market unless Simons or Darius Garland becomes available via trade, but aside from that, Tyus Jones would be the best option and would help a ton I believe. I still think Gary Trent, Jr. would have been a better play than re-signing Gary Harris, but Harris's contract value is quite reasonable and tradable. Let's see what Trent ends up signing for to see whether we could have gotten more value from him - We are very good defensively at guard, we need an offensive boost and can scheme a player like Trent to be effective defensively more than we can make someone be a good offensive player with a scorer and volume shooter mentality

      the only player that was traded so far that fits that mold is DeJuante Murray. I would have liked him, but of all the above mentioned players, Anfernee Simons would be my first option - so if he gets traded and the Magic aren't one of the teams putting in a serious bid for him, that would be upsetting. Trae Young isn't on the trade block yet, but could be depending on how the season goes. And both he and Garland are terrible defensive players - that's why I prefer Simons with his 6'9" wingspan and high end athleticism. Has far more defensive potential than all the rest of them. Murray wasn't good defensively, but is a leading steals man and has far more potential there too.
