I don't think everyone can assume Hedo will return to form just from being back in Orlando.

Still a good move and I like Peitrus's defense for them. And Arenas is probably worth the gamble.

But, even though the owner denies it, does this mean Steve Nash is available? :shock:

Wonderful. I finally get off my ass and bid on a Gortat auto two days ago, and this happens. Same thing happened to me with McGrady and Francis. I'm done buying basketball cards.

The trade with the Suns seems like it could work out nicely, although I winced a bit at the first round pick.

I hope that Arenas doesn't shoot up our locker room. I have a bad feeling he'll be mugging Redick for lunch money, but that's a different off-court story.

marginally better still nothing close to a title contender and their cap situation is even more Fd. Dwight gonna drop the Magic like he did his baby mama

Getting Arenas is a plus but I'm not sold on Hedo.

I dont think they got better but I respect them for trying something. I always love shake ups. I mean Lewis was long and a better defender than Hedo so thats going to hurt them IMO. Also losing Gortat is going to hurt them more than they think. Arenas was a gamble and even if he works out in the scoring department he lacks in defense. Brandon Bass is solid and has had some games for them but there was a reason he was a bench player. With Gortat gone its all Howard or Bust. I like Vangundy as thier coach and he if anyone can bring the best out of his teams.

orlando not a title contender?

Getting rid of "The Anchor", Vince Carter is addition by subtraction.

Orlando is 13-3 since the Trades and Phoenix is 7-9 since the Trades.

4 out of their 5 next five games should be wins. They do play da Bulls in between before playing Miami next Monday.
