Isaac has the potential to MAYBE be the 2nd best player on a title winner. But you're right on the rest of the fodder on that roster. They basically fill up uniforms.

Those draft picks are over a 3 year period. Then it takes years to develop. Then most will develop into busts. If one of them turns out good, magic will trade them for nothing like oladipo

But I have watched them play Artie. Quite a bit. That's partly why I'm confident in my take and why you refuse to break down their game. When the Magic win 25-28 games or so next year, you will just open up a new can of excuses. That's what you do.

You're babbling Artie. Take a deep breath.

Don't take out your frustration in the ineptitude of your franchise on more knowledgeable posters.

In order to "step back", you'd have to be somewhere, right? Anyway Shaq was still an active player & John Wooden was still alive the last time this team that's taking a "step back" won a playoff series.

Kyrie Irving, Markieff Morris, and Harrison Barnes were all still in college and have all won a NBA championship since the last time this team that's taking a "step back" won a playoff series.

Relying on the draft in these trades are like going on a blind date. You never know what you will find or get.

I feel like the Orlando magic aren't a real NBA basketball team. They seem to just refuse to extend players once their time is up for a contract. They're content with putting around a mediocre perennial playoff contending team just to appease the small minority of fans in the area but at the end of the day they're just a farming ground for other NBA teams

Gordon, Vooch, fournier, Isaac, Fultz, were all extended

Artman's opinions on basketball are about as cogent as my dog's opinions on Thomistic metaphysics.
