Marbury or Tinsley?

Fri Feb 06, 2009 4:31 am

Not sure how desperate Orlando maybe, but with both Marbury and Tinsley in the dogpound with their teams, they could be free by the end of the month and looking for a playoff contender like Orlando since they need help at the PG position with Nelson out for the year

Read they were close to getting Lue for Bogans. There's also talks of Atkins being traded in.

No one

Marbury or Tinsley would break the team chemistry so they don't need them. Johnson can play some PG and Reddick as a fill in

BTW... How they would get for example Tinsley? The should trade somebody with a contract around $7M

I voted for Other. I think both could work and if they were available to simply sign it'd be worth taking a low risk on one of them but unless there's a buyout it's not happening and that would appear to rule out Tinsley. Here we are in February and the Knicks still haven't bought out Marbury yet either, so he's probably not an option for the Magic or anyone else barring a breakthrough in those negotiations.

They have already traded Bogans to Milwaukee for Lue. I'm not sure if he's good enough replacement, but at least he can play point guard.

BTW, I voted for Tinsley (if there wouldn't be the Lue trade, they could've traded Bogans, Cook or Battie perhaps)

He's good enough to backup Anthony Johnson while Nelson is out but they're not going to truly replace Nelson with any kind of minor deal or D-League callup. Solid move as they have more depth at shooting guard, enough to give up Bogans for another option at point.
