at thsi point the Magic are just signing everyone. Seems like Biyombo only took 16 per. Perhaps Vucevic will become available.

Now that the Magic signed Biombo, can someone tell if there is any chance of getting Ibaka or it will have to wait till fall to make another trade for him? I cant see a more perfect fit to this team that this guy. With Beverly, Ariza and Ibaka it can be a mean defensive team.
even if they don't trade vucevic. With the crap asset managment they have done at least Hezonja or Gordon may be available in the future because they wont' have capspace.
I'd gladly offer our vets for those two if Orlando is foolish enough to think they are anywhere close to contention.
Gentleman, are we really going to end up going into next year with the same team minus Dwight? How the hell are Les and Morey supposed to sell that? Oh, who am i kidding? Morey has already started. "The teams that wait and spend smartly over the next 3 years will be better off." Just another excuse because we couldn't attract anyone. "We decided it was best to go into 2017 with cap flexibility. We believe in our current roster and it's a roster that's been to the WCF."
Magic was in the same situation as with my Bucks. Had a cheap young core, had pgs who can't shoot and had C who can't defend. One team is looking to get rid of pg and C who are not fit for modern bball, the other traded everyone else to accomodate them. One team keeps future capspace to take into account future max contracts , the other is overpaying Jeff Greens and Ibakas. Because they traded for Ibaka in the beginning they must do as many win now moves as possible now to make the playoffs otherwise he gone.
Just as we have lowered our expectations, the remaining FAs will do the same, and an unlucky few will sign with Houston.
