Orlando Magic

I once liked all the moves this squad was making, like right after they got rid of Steve Francis for example, but now it's a head scratcher.

110+ mil for Rashard, a 85 million extension for Dwight Howard and another extension for PG Jameer Nelson down in the pipeline?

So basically you're investing 200+ million into this "core" group of guys... and unless I'm wrong, the NBA is about winning championships sooo...

Why in the world would you invest that type of money into those 3 guys?

The Magic look like a decent team but far from championship caliber. Rashard already believes they can make it because Cleveland did, even goes as far as saying "what's different about us and Cleveland?"

LeBron?

Howards worth the money but rashard has quickly become one of the most overrated players in the NBA..

Knicks got the east on lock.

Cleveland was one of the east's best teams for the last two seasons and before that they were in contention for a playoff spot two years in a row. They vastly improved since drafting LeBron each and every year.

They didn't just rise out of nowhere. They have continuity and an established core. I hate to rag on the phrase defense wins championships, but they have an established one and one of the best in the entire NBA at that.

They aren't a juggernaut but good enough to hold their own in the east. Orlando isn't. They aren't going to the Finals this year despite Shard's prediction.

Lewis took those cats straight to the bank. 200 mil invested in players who would be lucky to even make the conference finals, let alone win a title.

Oh by the way Iceodu, the Sonics got a conditional 2nd round pick and a trade exception in this SIGN-AND-TRADE deal for Rashard. See what I mean by comparison what Paxson got for a Curry sign and trade.

Shard has got to be the most overpaid player of HIS caliber that I have ever seen. I thought the original figure of 85 mil was a bit much but wow. It can reach 125 mil over the 6 years, that's only 7 million less than Kobe Bryant's current contract.

Hmmm... the last time the Magic splurged this big in free agency they gave matching 93 million dollar contracts to Tracy McGrady and Grant Hill.

I expect this spending spree to turn bout almost the same.

I agree Howard was worth it, pretty much if you're a half decent rookie these days you will always get offered the 5 year max after your rookie contract expires(or 3 year max if you're LeBron, D-Wade or Chris Bosh).

For those not in the know, I saw on alot of other forums people were outraged by Rashard making more than Dwight, but since it's Howard's second contract, the most he's eligible to make is 5 years/85 mil. He won't be able to make Rashard type money until after this 5 year contract is up.

Anyways, my post is more about the Rashard signing, but I think basically when you make that move and extend Dwight at the same time, you're telling your fans that "okay we think these two guys can get us a ring and get used to seeing them for a very very long time".

Which I strongly disagree with.

Hell this team even got a blessing in disguise when ole gator head went back to florida and Jeff van gundy fell in their lap...

...because THAT would've been a major fuck up too.

...says the knick fan? you should be the most disgusted when an undeserving player gets paid max money. everyone on the knicks seems to have a max deal.

but to your other question, i care because it's frustrating seeing idiot moves being made by these supposedly knowledgeable general managers. from stupid draft choices to stupid free agent choices to stupid coaching decisions...it really makes you wonder if the personnel moves that they make couldn't be done by the average educated basketball fan. i mean, are elgin baylor, billy knight, billy king that more qualified to be an NBA general manager than ME? YOU?

BUT, regarding the lewis signing, it's won't be that noticeable right away, since they're bound to be a winning team considering their conference, but in no less than 3 years lewis will be topping numerous 'most overpaid athletes' lists until he's been traded to at least one other team and he's no longer regarded as an NBA player but rather, an expiring contract.

pretty, prettay bleak.

I'm in the business of talking all things NBA. That's what we do here, talk about sports. The money isn't coming out of my wallet but poorly managed salary caps is a fairly large part of who wins and loses in the sport.

im sry magic fans. i really am. i wanted to see d12 do some nice things in the nba. but i guess yall gonna have to wait at least 6 yeras. ya im late but w/e, i aint on rapmusic much anymore. daam i forgot the name of the orlando gm but now i know why tmac left. prolly same reason why hill left.

orlando had to go thru hill, tmac, now lewis? so sad, if i was a fan of that team id risk my life just to punch otis in the face, hopefully kill him in the process in front of his family and rashard lewis.

wats sad is theres pple that think THES WORTH THE MONEY!!! reasons are...

the defense will come
hes young
he helps d12
and bla bla bla i dunno anything about basketball

stfu, hes worth some money but more than kobe/tmac/wade/bron/errryone else? pass that blunt over here muhfugga, i need some of that.

orlando, say hi to first round mediocrity for the next 6 years. not 5, BUT 6!!!
