    Any other Magic fans sick of watching Jameer Nelson stink up the court all game long?

    So a couple of good games against the porous Toronto defence and he's our starting PG of the future? Otis must be smoking crack.

    Don't get me wrong, I like him as a leader off-the-court but on the court, he is just not what we need, nor is he good enough. The whole Mighty Mouse routine just gets tiresome, and watching Chauncey Billups and other big point guards just manhandle him and dump us out off the playoffs yet again is heartbreaking for the rest of the team.

    The only question left is: Who can we get to replace him?

    Unfortunately, while Hedo's status is up in the air, our frontcourt is thinner than skimmed milk and our need for that third-string PG, Nelson is safe. Which is sickening on a team with a superstar centre, a stellar forward and a superb coach all publicly harbouring very tangible dreams of collecting those championship rings.

    What sort of trades can you see going down to engineer us a shot at a legit starting, pass-first PG? Surely it has to be a three-way trade.

    I would say you could do Felton for Nelson straight up. Don't bash me, just a reasonable suggestion.

    there is also the possibility of trading him for Randy Foye if you want a high rewards type gamble.

    Played pretty well tonight. I see where you're coming from though.
