Uhh, they're better off trading McGrady, who will opt out next year anyway.
I'd be careful before talking smack about that Magic team. I love T-Mac, but he's one of the laziest players in the NBA. Ever watch McGrady play defense or defend a fast break?

All of those trade ideas came directly from Chad Ford, as he said those were the teams who are reported to be interested in T-Mac. The line-up ideas came from me, though I think if any trade is made...Juwan Howard and/or Drew Gooden will be dealt.
I don't know about you...but I'd be afraid of any of those line-ups.
