here's a question: what if ORL and Turk actually come back together and make it work? Where does that leave Sheed and ORL?

certainly he would be a better fit in BOS at that point....

He could still go to SA where he would probably have a starting job.

that's true, but the other article out today said that he wants to stay in the EC...

hopefully we will start hearing more info in the coming days..

It's all speculation at this point --- and I would trust Ric Bucher over most --- but I'm pretty sure Potvak (the author of the below blurb) writes or wrote for the Orlando Sentinel:

Magic to Pursue Rasheed Wallace, Brandon Bass:

Quote
Now that they have landed All-Star Vince Carter and all but said goodbye to Hedo Turkoglu, the Orlando Magic will try to rebuild their supporting cast by targeting a pair of vastly different free-agent frontcourt players.

After losing to the Lakers and their big front line in the NBA Finals, the Magic are expected to make offers next week in free agency to both veteran Rasheed Wallace of Detroit and young Brandon Bass of Dallas, according to two NBA sources.

Wallace, 34, is expected to be pursued by both the Magic and the Boston Celtics, who are competing with the Cleveland Cavaliers for the top spot in the Eastern Conference. Wallace has played 14 seasons in the NBA, earning a reputation as an often enigmatic, but unselfish player with championship experience.

Wallace still could remain in Detroit, but he has expressed a desire to finish his career with a legitimate contender in the East. He would help either Boston or Orlando counter Cleveland's addition of Shaquille O'Neal.

My guess is that both ORL and BOS will make a hard run at Wallace. We all know which team would give him a better chance at another title  ;)
