Orlando had a very good draft. They needed a point guard and they got a guy who will come in and contribute right away. They don't need a savior, they just need solid guys to help McGrady.

If the Magic get Odom, that will be a great pickup. Odom is seen as a problem child now, but he was playing w/ the Clippers! Once he gets w/ a good team like the Magic and a good coach like Doc Rivers than he will improve a lot.

I like the way the Magic look right now.
POINT GUARD
Gaines-Will have a fine rookie season.
Armstrong-Great backup, will bring energy.
SHOOTING GUARD
McGrady-Awesome.
Bogans-Solid backup, can contribute for this team.
SMALL FORWARD
Odom-If they get him, it will be a great pickup. Not like Miles w/ the Cavs.
Giricek-This guy is gonna be a player. Had a fine rookie season, showed good poise.
Hill-What's the deal w/ him? His dad says he's playing. Others say he's out for the year. I want to hear his thoughts.
POWER FORWARD
Gooden-Will be a player. Good rookie season, especially in the playoffs.
Garrity-Great player to bring off the bench and make some 3's.
CENTER
DeClerq-This is where they're lacking. Not a good starter.
Hunter-Again, not a good player.

-If the Magic can pick up a decent center they will be a major contender in the East. I'm a Knicks fan through and through, but I'm looking forward to watching this young and exciting Magic team develop. Plus I'm a big Giricek fan.
