Orlando in a playoff series

they're going to get absolutely destroyed by Miami and Boston

Nelson/Gil/Richardson/Turk or Bass/Howard

Imagine what Wade/James or Ray/PP will do to those guys

Or would they go Nelson/Richardson/Turk/Bass/Howard?

They get Carter's expiring, and a first round pick to help speed up their rebuilding process

Gortat is another big that can clog up the paint in case Lopez goes down again. 

Magic: They get Hedo who could create his own shot, and JRich who can launch with a good efficiency, especially if getting wide open looks = another title run. 

I dont see what's theres not to like about this trade.

Well, if Dwight goes down then they're thin, but i think they'd last with that frontcourt.

A complete roster revamp midway through season? Not a good idea. That would be a nice trade though, but then they would have too many people who need to dominate the ball.

Also Jason Richardson is expiring as well..........

So basically it's Richardson and Turk replacing Carter and Shard

And Gil replacing Pietrus/Gortat

I mean... contract wise it's kind of a wash, talent wise and impact wise it seems like a wash too.

KBerg_CBS "Done deal," @CBSSports source says. #Rockets tried to get in mix for Gortat, with Kevin Martin going to #Magic, but "couldn't get it done."
Interesting. Would have done this move before the other ones.

I don't like losing Gortat for Orlando. Between D12 in foul trouble, and not having any other big men besides Bass, they're very weak in the front court defensively. Under their current gameplan this team should work better, Gil, J-Rich, Hedo should be able to create their own shot and score from the outside better than VC and Shard, but it's a lot to take in. They didn't improve their perimeter D which was embarrassing... they are too lazy because they know Dwight can back the up.
I also don't like Jameer and Gil in the same backcourt, I'd rather see Gil, J-Rich, Turk, Bass, D12. And trade Jameer for a backup center if available.

Probably would have had to take Carter in that deal too. No thanks.

Gortat is a big loss for Orlando... With Dwight & his fouls he's always been a key for them.

Gil is a nice bonus, as well as JRich & Hedo back again. I think Gil will have a nice comeback if this goes down... Not superstar status again, but definitly a good player to fit on that team.

VC & Nash will be interesting.

[hood17]

So what about nash now?
Orlando up front will have major problems now.

I really wanted to see Nash in Orlando too, but now that ship has sailed. 

Not sure he can be traded to any "bonafide contenders" now.
