<div class="quote_poster">Quoting :</div><div class="quote_post">Definitely gone: Center Steven Hunter, center Sean Rooks, rookie forward Britton Johnsen and guard Derrick Dial. All are free agents. Probably gone: Forward Drew Gooden, guard Reece Gaines and center Zaza Pachulia. Gooden and Gaines will be eagerly shopped. Pachulia will go shopping. Likely back, barring trades: Forward Juwan Howard, guard Tyronn Lue, small forward De-Shawn Stevenson, center Andrew DeClercq and small forward Keith Bogans. Definitely back, if healthy: Forwards Grant Hill and Pat Garrity. McGrady, Hill, Garrity, DeClercq, Gooden, Gaines, Bogans, Howard, Lue and Stevenson are under contract.</div> Well there goes our youth with great potential. We're making a huge mistake.

Sorry man. But if we're gonna make any trades we HAVE to get rid of the young guys because they have the most value. I know that many of you guys hate Howard, Declreq, and Lue but so do the other teams. That's not how trades work. You gotta give up someting if you want something. BTW-I didn't know Zaza was a FA. Is he?
I agree with crazy on this one. We have to keep the vets and trade the young guns. We need to keep Zaza and Hunter and Lue and Gooden IMO.
lol Gooden? I don't like the other ones leaving but I could deal with them but Gooden????? man that's just a HUGE mistake , unless we get like Okafor , Gordon/Nelson , I'd still keep Gooden. <div class="quote_poster">Quote:</div><div class="quote_post"> Weisbrod said Thursday that if Hill is healthy -- for the past four years, that has been the $93 million question -- he will man the position. "That's our intention with Grant," Weisbrod said. </div> That's talking about PG position that was my big question , that would be AWESOME imo , then Stevenson and/or Bogans and/or Garrity will play at the SF...maybe Stevenson backup SG , Garrity or Bogans starting..Hill , Lue in PG...Stevenson T-Mac in SG...Gooden , 2ndround in PF , Okafor Hunter and/or damn DeClerq...
Why trade? No one wants delclerq.. Just drop them all.. Trade howard, hes worth something.. I am begining to give up with Gaines, he could ride our DL though.. Anyone is a better GM than John Weisbrod.. Why is he still there? I Thought he was just interim... Hes making me mad already...
<div class="quote_poster">Quoting sportsrock37:</div><div class="quote_post">I wouldn't be surprised if him and Juwan start over Okafor(if we get him)</div> If that happens, I woudln't blame McGrady for leaving Orlando.
I can't believe they're keeping Declerq and not Gooden or Zaza. That's just plain stupid, they have much more in every aspect, even in their worst games, they do everything better. This team's really going downhill, if roleplayers are gotten rid of like that, then you shouldn't even bother thinking two players, TMac and whoever is drafted will make you. Especially since TMac is hoping for Hill to help him out....
