     A picture was taken of Patricio Garino as he was signing his contract with the Magic.  In the background there is a whiteboard that appears to show lists of free agent and trade targets.  On the list of "Hybrid Targets" is Saric and next to it appears to be (for AG?).  Possibly suggesting the Magic are willing to trade Aaron Gordon for Saric even though I don’t see why Philly would do that deal.  Earlier in the year the Nets met at a Starbucks and a picture was taken of documents listing their player "assets".

     For so many reasons Orlando just showed they need to clean house and get rid of everyone at the management level. Vogel is a great coach and the team has so. e decent assets but Rob Hennigan has made some risky moves and quite fra klu his job was in jeapordy before the season even started. 

    Call me crazy but after reading this board I kind of feel like this was leaked on purpose so Hennigan could get fired and collect the remaining money on his contract while pursuing another opportunity.

    Probally overanalyzing this but the fact that AG’s name is up there for a straight swap of Saric is really bad. I wouldnt wanna play for that guy when its obvious he feels a very comparible positional matchup would be a better fit.

      spread big trade

      Leuer, though I saw Fat Lever too.

      Basically, they put the name of every player under 30 on a board. Otherwise, I’m pretty sure Memphis would be calling them right now about Parsons with the "all take anything offer". I hate to take a shot at a guy whose career has been devastated by injuries, but really? Trading for him? At this point? Heck of a job there Hennigan.

      I believe it is Love, not Lever.

    Honestly I don’t think it matters that this leaked because other than maybe Millsap, none of those players can make this team better. The team is currently a mosaic of role players that don’t have chemistry, but already fit that hybrid role. What Orlando desperately needs, in addition to an identity in general, is a go-to guy who is the obvious face of the franchise like Ball or Fultz (or Ayton if you’re thinking ahead to 2018).

     If this wasn’t intentional and this was a leak, this is a bad look for the Magic Organization, I have no problem with a big board of potential taret players this summer, but the "Saric for AG" is a problem. If I was Aaron Gordon I would feel disrespected and want out of Orlando.

      It’s just surprising that an organization could allow a picture like this to get out.  The "Saric for AG" part is the biggest issue for me as well.  Not a good look and could causes friction between Gordon and management.

      Sixers wouldn’t trade Saric for Gordan and their first pick.  Gordon should feel amazing that he is considered equal to Saric in the eyes of his own management.

        You’re saying you don’t think Philly would take Aaron Gordon and a top 5 pick for Saric? That’s an insane view. I’m sure they would take a top 5 pick alone for Saric, much less a player who probably has comparable trade value himself PLUS that pick.

     This could give us an idea of who they will target in the draft.

    Most Likely in bold.

    • Jayson Tatum
    • Jonathan Isaac
    • Miles Bridges
    • Semi Ojeleye
    • Dedric Lawson
    • Devin Robinson
    • Lauri Markennan
    • Isaiah Hartenstein
    • Cameron Oliver
    • Tyler Lydon
    • Aleksandar Vezenkov
    • Bennie Boatwright
    • Anzejs Pasecniks
    • Jessie Govan

    Pretty obvious they’re going to after a Jackson, Tatum, or Issac in the draft.

    The funniest part to me is they’re targeting 2 guys they gave away for scraps in trades (Tobias and Mo Harkless)

      They also traded the draft rights to Saric to Philly….
      Anyway Saric is way better than 3 Gordon… Philly will laugh on that offer

    C’mon guys, this is fake, why would anybody want Deng and his contract? I think that Pelinka would get a statue right next to Magic if he could take that contract off of Lakers’ books.

      It’s not fake. It’s just also not a list of their targets. They simply made a list of ALL of the different guys that they think could be available. I’m sure they’re only interested in a couple of the players on the list.

      The Saric (for AG?) part is bad though. Regardless of how you view Saric and AG’s trade value, that’s the one line that they can’t really laugh off at all.

    I think the real question is, what respectable business is still using markers & whiteboard in 2017?
