Damn, so cold in the 6, you already trying to sell high on Fred?


They cant keep both and im starting to consider Delon Wright might be the better guy to go with as long as hes able hit his 3s at a respectable clip....I wonder if Fred might lose his fire once he signs a new deal and is locked in for 3-4 years...i like Fred alot but i have thought he could be playing above his self and once he signs he will come back to earth....

My Pops Forever RIP
Which 3?

Sabonis has played the majority of his minutes at the 5 this year.

It's too early to say what Isaac can and can't guard, and we know Gordon can guard 3s. Also, Saric is playing on a team with 2 other forwards who would have been PFs a few years ago, matter of fact Covington was a PF for a few years before they moved him to the 3.

You gotta get your mind out of the positions, even then Gordon can guard 3s.
Sabonis ain't a 5 by trade though. He's only playing there out of necessity because Turner's banged up a lot. He's a natural 4 (and if you wanted to relate that to Orlando's roster then, they had Vucevic, O'Quinn and Dedmon)

Covington's been a SF every year except this year, and truth be told, you can flip flop him and Simmons and it doesn't really matter. They can play both forward spots.

Gordon's been meh defensively as it is. He's been better at the 4 though. Their clusterfukk at the 3 is already gonna cost them Hezonja. Isaac is as talented as anyone on that team, but he ain't built for the 4 with his body and blood of Christ diet.

The problem is that if your BPA is at a position you've committed to immensely already, you only look dumb for doubling down. Part of building a team is making tough ass decisions. If Marvin Bagley is there, then you need to decide whether Gordon is your future or not (and I didn't even include Jonathan Isaac who they just drafted 6th overall and knew was gonna take time) If I have a real desire to draft Bamba, then you need to do whatever you need to in order to move Biyombo somewher. Orlando's problem is that they'd be the type to draft a Bagley or a Jackson and keep Isaac AND Gordon and think they got a stacked team. They don't. They have a clusterfukk that they'll have to give away for pennies on the dollar because they couldn't be firm on what their future is.
2020 first rounder and biyombo could work

I could see the magic trading down and the bulls trading up :sadcam:. Bulls are gonna try to get mpj or bagley

Magic trae young,but they may be able to draft doncic depending where they land. Markannan will be a 5 at some point mpj or bagley can play the 4


You think they will pick a overseas player again after Mario Hezonja?
