Around SBN: How A Letter From Tom Coughlin Helped One Fan's Recovery

Targeting One of Orlando's Back Up Bigs

The way i see it is, by the time the playoffs come we will need another huge body to throw at the likes of Pau and Bynum. Well even though big men are scarce in todays nba... one team has a couple

The Orlando Magic signed both Marcin Gortat and Brandon Bass to contracts this summer... well first of all neither are playing that much cuz they play behind the #1 center in the NBA. Like Bass played 0 minutes against a big Boston team. This shows they do not need both. I think they would trade bass over gortat (even tho bass is cheaper). So why dont we take one of their hands. As of right now it looks like they need a back up PG. But it doesnt matter cuz by the time we can trade for gortat or bass (dec 15) nelson will only b a couple of weeks away from coming back.  Both bass and gortat are great rebounders but gortat is 7 ft and bass is like 6'9" i think. The way i see it is, either one would help us with 20+ minutes of the bench...

 

ok so how do we get them?

Well the best trade for us would be balkman + Malik Allen or AC and a Pick  for Bass 

of course ORL loses big talent wise but financially its better for them

Bass is 6'8"

So I am not sure he is a solution against the 7-footers Gasol & Bynum.

STIFF LIST (as of 1/30 by Jeff Morton)

1. THE ORLANDO MAGIC
After starting the season so well with the Dwight Howard trade drama (10-3) - the Magic have fallen apart (2-5 since) with embarrassing losses to the Celtics (twice), Hornets, and Pacers. Trade Dwight already!

2. CHAUNCEY BILLUPS' FLOP VS. NUGGETS
In the waning seconds of Sunday's game against the Clippers, Chauncey pulled off an acting performance so good it deserved an Academy Award. If he was still a Nugget we would love it, but he's not. STIFF!

3. JIMMER FREDETTE
Dude, if you are going to take the game-winning shot, at least draw some iron: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mNO1goJOruQ

4. GEORGE KARL'S 4TH QUARTER AGAINST THE CLIPPERS
Getting out coached by Vinny Del Negro should be a nice wake-up call. Going away from Gallo. Leaving Al Harrington in. Using Rudy Fernandez at point guard. And going ultra small contributed to the Nuggets loss.

5. JEFF MORTON
For saying that the Nuggets would skimp on payroll and go cheap like the Avalanche. Clearly I was wrong and deserve to be on this Stiff List. I can only hope that the gods of basketball forgive me.
