How can Magic take the next step and be in contention?

Paolo could make the Olympic team.

The most interesting summer begins today after Magic lost in Cleveland.

With all the reports of what Magic is going to do. I really find Paul George a long shot. First of all, Orlando is a small market not like LA. And then if he truly wants to set up this upcoming free agency to win a ring, Philly is the best choice for him.

I am going to throw a wild card here. What about James Harden? He fits it on the court perfectly with this young team. Plus he is a PG.

I know I know Malik Monk is out there. But I think Malik Monk fits age wise and utility wise. But James Harden is not going to be as expensive at least I hope and he is entering his last contract of his playing career. Plus Orlando can offer him one thing: Chance to win it all.

We are going to say goodbyes to some of our players, maybe Fultz, Joe Ingles and Gary Harris. I really do think this upcoming decision by the front office is going to ultimately make this rebuild or kill this rebuild. So we should be very careful here.

Let the summer begin!

Which comes first? The FA or the draft?

Massively important summer, on each of your points

- No to Harden because it would take away our whole defence, which is our difference maker

- Monk is an awkward fit, but can fit with Paulo and Franz at point forward

- If Fultz can’t prove to be healthy he’ll go, and if Harris won’t take a big pay cut he will as well. I’d ideally like to keep both on the minimum or close

My ideal situation would be to sign Murray, would Isaac, 2024 FRP, Denver FRP, and 2026 FRP be enough? If not for who WCJ?

Get Booker

James Harden is a great idea if you want to pay a lot of money to torpedo the entire franchise.

Uh, the draft, I think. That's June 26th, then legal tampering starts June 30th.

Hmmm so all of us posters indulge fitst in our favorite past time of watching prospects shoot 3s in an empty gym and guessong their heights before we stalk those FA guards we want.
