He's been putting up some good numbers, but somebody has to get points and rebounds for NBA teams. Look at the numbers Tobias Harris put up since going to Orlando. John freakin' Lucas III almost put up a triple double when he played 48 minutes in a game for the Bulls last year.

He's ridiculous just putting up steady numbers all season. He just pounds the inside like nobody's business

I like what Orlando's young GM is doing, if they pick up a decent draft pick and FA they can be much improved as Harkless, Vucevic and Harris mature

oooook. let us do a breakdown. since 2001, the 8th seed averaged a record of 39-43. thats excluding 2011 shortened season where the 8th seed was 35-31. thats the best % mark from 2001-13 . you must think from the confines of the whitehouse if you want me to believe that team wouldn't 38-43 games. notice that i also mentioned bench which is important.

since 2001, the 8th seed averaged a record of 39-43 while going 5 games over .500 only once.

I think you mean "this bench with the right starters can do something"

The point isn't to make the playoffs next year. The point is to keep adding assets and get rid of the useless contracts -- Hedo, Harrington, and Big Baby. Nelson was brought back specifically to be a leader to the young guys. He will be in Orlando for a while.

Harris and Vucevic look like legitimate NBA starters. Nicholson has a solid mid-range jumper, and he looks like he will play in this league for a long time coming off the bench. Still not sure what to expect long-term out of Harkless. He's crazy athletic but doesn't really have any defined skills yet. And then, of course, Afflalo is a really solid player with a pretty reasonable contract.

Hennigan has done a good job so far. He likes snagging underrated mid to late 1st round guys. Wouldn't surprise me at all if he traded out of the top 3 pick we will likely get to gobble up picks. Obviously, this team needs a ton of help.

Assuming the cats take noel, orlando would be laughed at for passing on ben. The nba is star driven. So arguably the best player in the draft being a scoring gd aint coming of the bench. Afflalo helps gives that bench that i speak of!

U dont think davis is good enough to start at pf? If not, is it not still wise to keep him. I mean he has balled enough to earn good minutes.
