| Magic is trying to get rid of all our youth.... By all means. Doesn't matter how it affects the team. Who cares about the future, we have Bron, a 34 year old star. My goodness. |

Mitch built a solid youth foundation, with solid depth on the rise. Maginka ripped it apart. Lance, Randle, Zu, Dlo....all shipped away or lost for free agents that wont even consider joining this mess! Its like we are run by Raiders front office. Clean house on all talent, start from scratch again  |

Magic thinks jacking up 25 footers >>>> defense, rebounds, screens, an actual body in the paint

And the Pelicans.
Zubac was the reason we won the previous matchup, Randle couldn’t score against Zubac.

| Who wants a promising young center with post up moves and anchoring paint defense. Not to mention gives warriors major problems? .... we got a muscala |

| Earvin Magic Johnson trading away Zu was the biggest mistake he's made this season, bar none. |

The one thing that is shocking is that aside from the Sixers who has Embiid, is that all the other teams don’t even have great bigs.
We are getting hammered by players named Dedmon, Dialo, Valanciunas and even Joakim Noah who has been out for a year.

The entire season should of been Zubac and Mcgee with a little Wagner from time to time
Luke or magic or maybe both have no clue |

Yes, the center position is a big problem.
Yes, JaVale and especially Chandler have regressed hard.
No, Zubac would not have been the answer to our problems.
Forget the two max plan, we need to get Vucevic this summer, then either trade for Beal or use the remaining cap to sign a shooter (e.g. Bojan) |

| Magic wanted to improve shooting at the center position when he doesn’t have any shooting at the pg position. Makes lots of sense. |

| Trading Zubac meant that the center position was a weakness. I don't know who told Magic that Muscala was a center, he isn't. Chandler is a shell, and should only be played when we have foul trouble for both our bigs. |

If Vucevic can keep up this season's 3PT shooting. He'd fit fine here.
If Zubac could space the floor out to the 3. He'd probably still be here.
