Well Played My Good Man

That dirty Ainge snagged 2 players that I had my eyes on Rasheed Wallace and Marquise Daniels. As a Magic fan I can still appreciate the moves he's has made. I scoffed when he signed ex-Magic coach Doc Rivers and was impressed when he obtained Kevin Garnett and Ray Allen in the same year. Not to mention he also made the right move in jetisoning Delonte West and keeping Rajon Rondo. All in all Ainge has made the right moves. This off season is no different.

Rasheed Wallace is a notorious Dwight Howard stopper and I wanted him on the Magic so he wouldn't be on another team. As luck would have it he goes to a team the Magic struggle the most with already. GOD DAMN &%#$ @^%$#

Marquise Daniels is a home town product with an hilarious personality. As you well know he is a very versatile player that can play 2 or 3 positions. However the Magic signed Barnes which offsets the need for another utility player. So you can have him but I'll miss the laughs he surely would have brought.

This will be the East finals

As of today the two teams have made the best moves to improve. You can debate will Hedo be missed,and will Carter be a good enough replacement. There big up front,and have three point shooting. The Cavs have not fixed really anything.They did trade nothing to get SHAQ. Moon,and Parker good role players,but not going to take them over the top. That’s my theory on the Cavs. If heathy the Celtics will have the advantage,but banged up a little. Magic would cause many problems.

Last year the Magic could not beat a healthy Celtics team

This year is where the Magic finally have an answer for you. Last year we didn’t have the frontcourt depth to match up with the Celtics. Our GM Otis addressed this by signing Bass and Anderson. The real key in the series is if Pierce can guard Rashard and if Bass can check KG.

I can’t wait till the season starts

The Magic are doing a good job of restructuring there team unfortunately we are geared to beat teams like them.

If Cleveland gets someone to defend the pick and role we have very serious problems

It depends on how shaq plays next year. A motivated shaq can trump everyone. The chances of that happening are low, but still the chance is still there.

it also depends on the seeding..

they wouldn’t play in the finals, for example, if they were the # 2 and #3 seed. At this point, idk who is better between Cleveland and Orlando, but I’m more afraid of Cleveland. They only got better this summer. Orlando did well but they gained a few players and lost some. Cleveland just added to what they have and now they are DEEP. very dangerous come playoff time. I just hope they will continue to choke at the end of games.
