Ok, so explain...Why wont they trade Ball?

1. You don't give up on the #2 pick in his first year

2. You especially dont because his father is a loudmouth

3. Youngest player to record a triple double

4. Averaging 10/7/7, if he can develop a halfway decent shot he's an All Star

5. If they really want Lebron, they would love to have a PG like Ball who can rebound and facilitate without needing to be ball-dominant

Have u been watching the LaVar show this season.  Wrong man, Magic would trade Ball immediately for an All Star PG.

lol. Kemba like the 4th best PG in the East. No chance Magic trades Ball and Randle for Kemba and Zeller. He should be fired if he did.

I saw an article that maybe the Knicks would consider Batum.  To do that we would almost assurredly have to take back Noah and maybe get McDermott or compariable in return.  Doubt we do that even if they gave us a first rounder.

I wouldn't take Noah's contract for anything less than two first rounders. It's that bad. Doesn't come off the books till 2020-2021 season (man it was weird to type those numbers)

[SOJA]

Kemba deserves to be treated like the best player in franchise history. If we do decide to tank (we should) Kemba should be asked whether he wants to stay for a rebuild or get traded now. 

The problem is: What contender or solid team needs a PG and has assets to trade for Kemba?

Just disagree but whatever.

I could see them do that.

Take the knicks first

And trade Kemba to the Clippers for a 1st.  Kemba, Blake Griffin, and Deandre Jordan couod be back in the playoff contention 

[Eazy-E]

Would Utah want Batum? They could pair the two Frenchies together.

I would send Batum and a unprotected first for Favors and someone like Joe Johnson. I think both of them are free agents this summer so their expirings may be worth more than we can offer.

[davos]

If we're trying to get rid of Batum, you've got to think about swapping bad contracts with a team where both think the return is a better fit...and we'll probably have to throw in MKG or Frank to sweeten the deal.  There's really not much out there IMO.

We need to keep Kemba. Find a way to trade Batum and MKG to clear room for Kemba. 

This. It’s going to be hard. No one wants mkg and batums contracts. It’s be easier to trade kemba bc he’s a beast and has a friendly contract. We should have been focusing on surrounding Kemba for years now. Instead, we drafts Zeller, mkg and Frank. Overpaid for Batum and Williams and now we are effed.

Magic looks to be going all in on a tank with reportedly Fournier, Payton and Vucevic.  Payton could be an interesting target.

Fournier =18ppg, 3 rpg, 3 apg
And his defense has really stepped up this year:

Give me Vucevic. Payton is terrible. Hes at best a backup PG.

Better than MCW; Fournier would be ideal but they’re trying to unload contracts so we probably couldn’t include Batum in on a deal.

that MKG/Graham for Fournier trade above is interesting
