Re: Is Jeremy Lin untradeable?
Weinke, dont think that trade helps either team since Knicks would still have Chandler, but what exactly are you hoping as a Magics fan?
If he leaves you guys, you guys are getting a shitty pick this year, no assets at all, so its a huge rebuilding project. At this point, the only trade that will really help you guys is Bynum but even he is something of an issue with his health and his pending FA as well (after next season he is a FA)
I know people will say I'm crazy, but I think there's still a reasonable chance Dwight returns. The Magic can offer him way more than any other team will be able to.
If they are able to re-sign him, amnesty Turk's contract, and then get Nash for a one or two year deal then the Magic will have a chance at a title in 2013 assuming Nash still has something in the tank (which I think he does). Nash with Dwight and all those shooters (Richardson, Reddick, Anderson, etc.) WOULD be a very dangerous team, even though I'm sure some here will disagree.
If Dwight demands a trade, best case for Orlando is Dwight + Turk for Griffin and Jordan from the Clippers.
The one thing the Magic are lucky enough to have is an owner that's very wealthy and very old, so he's willing to spend his money chasing a championship. Combine the new CBA rules with Florida's tax laws with Rich DeVos' money (the owner) and Orlando is sitting a lot better with Dwight than say Cleveland was with Lebron.
