That Magic first rounder they drafted 11th? Boy I sure don't. I was thinking maybe he'd join them especially in light of Turkoglu possibly leaving, but it turns out he's not so good in Europe

That draft didn't turn out as well as people were predicting, but the obvious player the Magic missed was Danny Granger.  Granger + Howard would have been some combination...

Yeah, no kidding.  That would be a contender for years if they kept decent guys around them.  The best young center plus one of the best young small forwards on the same team.

Actually I think he would be a nice fit for the magic. He could definitely help them. Numbers in Europe don`t tell the whole story, I think he developed quite nicely...

I wonder if they still would have pursued Rashard Lewis in that case, or perhaps another FA from 2007 (who were the other big FAs -- Billups?)
