<p class="style1"><div class='quotetop'>QUOTE </div><div class='quotemain'>Foyle has agreed to a two-year deal with the Magic that will pay him $1.4 million a season. The deal won't become official until Monday at the earliest when Foyle's agent, Lon Babby, returns from a trip out of the country. Florida Today</p> <p class="style1">Foyle's forte is his ability to defend centers in the post and swat shots at the rim. Throughout his career, he has ranked among the NBA's leaders in blocks per minute on the court. With the Magic in the same division with bruising centers Shaquille O'Neal, Emeka Okafor and Zaza Pachulia, Foyle's muscle could come in handy. He can spell Tony Battie at center and occasionally play alongside of Howard. "I like him because he's a good on-ball defender and he gives us somebody with some girth," Smith said. "We have a lot of tall guys, but no one with any real girth. He's a big defender who can help us." Florida Today</div></p><p class="style1">-Petey</p>
Hmm, good point about the others centers in the division and at this point I still think Orlando will need all the help they can get.
Otis likes him cause he's a fatty.</p> Kudos, Otis.</p> BTW, Darko was a better shotblocker with 10x the offensive ability. Nice going trading for him then letting him walk for nothing so you could sign Rashard Lewis to one of the top-20 worst contracts in NBA history. </p>
