Orlando's Offseason Outlook (contracts)

[Jameerthefear]

If you guys are looking at Smart or Exum, it makes no sense to keep Afflalo in the mix

what? why not? they both play PG. lineup would look something like:
exum/smart
dipo
afflalo
harris
vuc

I dont think Afflalo is big enough for SF, dont you guys want to start Harris?

he has played it before. he played a lot of sf this year actually.

[Black and White]

What is he? Like 6"5??? Thats not big enough for a long term SF.

[Jameerthefear]

yes it is.

[outbreak]

We'll see you guys in the lottery again next season.

it's a date.

Black & White - he's 6"5, he's made up for it with longish arms and good d but yeah he isn't a full time sf on a team that wants to contend, i don't see him as a piece in orlando's future and I think next season is a year too early to be trying to win. One more year of lottery and next offseason I imagine they will try to sign some free agents with their large amount of free cap space.

You guys can probably make a play for Chandler Parsons. I am sure he wants to play there being an Orlando kid and he would probably stay for as long as he can and not bolt like everyone else. I think he could be an All-Star there next year, or at least damn close, he will be given more of a chance to reach his potential here. Also adds shooting which we need.

Of course if Wiggins or Parker drop to you guys I doubt you make a play for him. If the Magic make a play for Parsons... Afflalo, Moe Harkless and Harris become expendable to me. Then they can make a move to get PG and PF in the draft with their 2 lottery picks.

Smart or Exum
Oladipo
Parsons
Vonleh or Randle or Gordon
Vucevic

That would make the fans super excited to go into next season looking like that. Then grabbing a spot up shooter in FA and maybe grabbing someone like Patric Young in the 2nd for rim protection and they should be turned around in 2 years. Maybe a low playoff seed next year.

As a Rockets fan I really wouldn't wanna see Chanlder Parsons go but if we do trade him I'd want something real good back. Maybe a future pick, Arron Afflalo or maybe even Tobias Harris. I really like Harris. He looks like the type of player that might break out in the future.

[Jameerthefear]

I don't want Parsons tbh. He's going to want close to 10m and I don't think he's worth that. Harris and Afflalo are more valuable to this team right now imo. We don't have a 2nd rounder either. If we do trade I would want picks and not really Parsons but HOU doesn't have anything high enough.

Yea short term I guess hes ok, but long term I think you should work on starting Tobias Harris and move from there, one more year of tanking then make the play during the next off-season to build a playoff team.

Afflalo can be moved to a contender for some younger pieces/picks.

yeah agree 100%, in my ideal scenario we move afflalo during draft night for a package based around a top 15 pick,

Could be a good scenario, I wonder which team would bite on draft night? Afflalos value is tough to gauge as he hasn't really got the exposure he deserves due to the team tanking.

Jared Dudley + Reggie Bullock for Afflalo

Yep I agree with this, trade Afflalo for prospects/picks and tank for one more year, if any two of Oladipo/this year's pick/next year's pick pan out you've got a core set to make noise for a while.

Charlotte were rumoured to have called Hennigan asking for Jameer and Afflalo for a deal around their pick. Don't know what else they would send though and not sure how it would work with Jameer's salary involved if Orlando are looking to only take back expiring/young players. I still think Afflalo would be amazing in OKC and Jameer would be an upgrade as a ball handler for Indiana in fourth quarters and trap situations.
