Looks like Barnes maybe headed to Orlando.  I hope we get someone like Moon because I'd be dissappointed going into the season with Walker as the backup for Pierce this year.

Dang, he was overrated on this board, but he's still a nice player.

I think the news of the magic's demis was a tad premature.

Jamario Moon is much much more talented then Barnes though IMO. So if we can get him, I think we'll still have the upperhand.

Too bad. I thought Orlando was trying to cut costs a little. Don't they have financial issues?

He's always said he would only come to cold weather cities for a premium. I don't we should have ever expected him to suit up in green.

The article seems kind of sketchy. It was part of a one liner. Still, that sucks for our extra guard spot. Players are drying up and I hope Danny acts fast.

[dang]! Does Orlando have unlimited funds or what?

Big acquisition for them, now they really have a great bench... Pietrus, Barnes, Gortat, Johnson.

I wanted Barnes in green but if we can get Moon I'll be OK with that.

Makes you wonder if that "we dont want to pay the luxury tax" thing was all a lie.

The money they've spent since not re-signing Hedo (Gortat's MLE, Bass's 4mill per year and what I'm guessing is LLE for Barnes) add's up to more than Hedo's contract.

Yeah, I'm still surprised they let Hedo go, considering they are going for it this year! $$$

Is there anything to this rumor? I followed the links, and there's nothing of substance anywhere.

That's pretty much how Hoopsworld rolls.

Makes you wonder?? They're already gone over the luxury tax without Barnes.

Where's the 'great'ness of that bench?

I like Pietrus and Gortat.  Role players that fill big holes.
