The concept of Fournier always seems better than the reality.
Maybe in the right situation ... maybe in BOS (?)

Vuc is an EZ-Pass defender who wastes possessions on O, yet has lots of o-skills.

I don't like anyone on ORL, except maybe Khem Burch as a burly backup C.
Next year they start paying Fultz 3/$50M &  Isaac 4/$70M.
Yikes x 2.

Maybe we can add Otto Porter on the cheap when he's a FA.
His stock is rather low.
And I'd keep an eye on Markkanen.

Vuc-Markkanen will be interesting to watch.

Magic added Wendell Cartero, Gary Harris, Otto Porter, RJ Hampton and 2 Bulls 1st rounders, which should be pretty good picks, plus a 2025 DEN 1st which will likely be in the 20's.

Fultz  - Gary Harris - Jon Isaac - Otto Porter - Carter
Cole Ant - RJ Hampton - TRoss - Mo Bomba  - KhemBirch

Looks pretty scattered.
Like the usual stuff the Bulls or Magic trot out ...

Better hope they hit on their own and the Bulls 1st rounders.

Why would ORL pay to keep Porter?

Fultz and Isaac on the mend and likely out for the year.

Porter an expiring contract. 

Cater and Bomba potentially a nice platoon at center. 

Out with the old in with the new.  A clean sweep.

Cippers offload two second round picks and Lou Williams for Rajon Rondo. 

Making their push.

I like what ORL did

If that is their second unit.......?  Not bad.

What starter can they buy with the Porter money?  We will see.  Draft picks add to depth if they dont start.

Lakers close on LOWRY - but said to be holding on dearly to Taylor Horton .  Schroder would also go to Raps

Thanks be to

GOD

We didn't go all in for any shiny objects like friggin' Oladipo. 

Keeping our powder dry come summer, when we could conceivably make a push for Lonzo Ball. 

Or heretofore unrevealed possibilities. 

Whomever comprises the Knicks brain trust...Aller, Perrin, Perry, Wes, one would think Neon Leon makes the final call. 

Poking around on the internet regarding the 22 year old Ferguson, the word is that he is an athletic 6'6" wing, a very capable defender, and of questionable offensive virtues. 

Poirier did time with the Celtics and the French National Team, where he played with Ntiliknia.

And Philly's #2 pick this summer, which while in and of itself does not set the salivaries a-juicing, could conceivably be packaged with Detroit's #2. 

As we speak,  NY is outside of the LOTTERY BUBBLE, sitting on the #17, #20, #32 and #46 picks.

The Houston Rockets are trading Victor Oladipo to the Miami Heat, according to ESPN's Adrian Wojnarowski. The Heat are sending back Kelly Olynyk, Avery Bradley and a draft swap, per The Athletic's Shams Charania.

Got to hand it to Pat Riley. 

If they land LaMarcus as a FA buyout, well....

 17, 20, and 32 Might get us into the top 8.

NO mugged Dallas which I was very glad to see.

Very happy with our haul. Rivers and Iggy won’t have to be situational anymore.

Going to find some VP highlights.

BoZ, there's only one Cartero around here, and his first name ain't Wendell.
