Orlando Sentinel - Reaching into their recent past, the Orlando Magic expect to sign forward Bo Outlaw to a free-agent deal.
"It looks like we're going to get that done," Magic Assistant General Manager Otis Smith said Saturday.
Outlaw, 34, played for the Magic for four-plus seasons, starting in 1997-98. A fan favorite known for his hustle, Outlaw, along with a first-round pick and cash, was traded to the Phoenix Suns for Jud Buechler in November 2001. The Suns used the pick in the 2002 draft to select Amare Stoudemire of Cypress Creek High.
Outlaw spent two seasons with the Suns, was dealt to the Memphis Grizzlies before the 2003-04 season, waived by Memphis last season and re-signed by Phoenix, for whom he played sparingly and averaged 0.7 points in 39 games.
Orlando still might sign a free agent after camp opens Oct. 4. But Smith said the 6-foot-8 Outlaw offers experience to back up Dwight Howard. "We needed somebody who knows how to play the game, and that's Bo," Smith said. "He's an undersized power forward, but he can do the little things."

Orlando, FL – The Orlando Magic have signed free agents Ken Johnson and Terence Morris, President/CEO Bob Vander Weide announced today. Per team policy, terms of the deals are not disclosed.
Johnson (6’11”, 240, 2/1/78) appeared in 34 games last season with Bourg en Bresse in France, averaging 11.2 ppg., 5.2 rpg. and 2.1 blkpg. Originally selected by Miami in the second round (49th overall) of the 2001 NBA Draft, Johnson played in 16 games with the Heat during the 2002-03 season, averaging 2.0 ppg. and 2.0 rpg. He has also played professionally with Huntsville of the D-League, as well as in Italy, France and the CBA.
Johnson spent four seasons at Ohio State University. He finished his collegiate career as the fourth all-time shot blocker in NCAA history with 444, which also ranks as the best all-time in Big Ten and Ohio State history. Johnson also holds the top three single-season blocked shot totals in school history. He was named First Team All-Big Ten following his senior season (2000-01), after averaging 12.5 ppg., 7.3 rpg. and 4.0 blkpg., and was named Big Ten Defensive Player of the Year for the second straight season.
Morris (6’9”, 221, 1/11/79) was originally selected by Atlanta in the second round (34th overall) of the 2001 NBA Draft. He has played in 117 career NBA regular season games with Houston, averaging 3.7 ppg. and 2.9 rpg. in 14.9 minpg.
Morris spent four seasons at the University of Maryland. He earned Honorable Mention All-America recognition by The Associated Press in each of his final three seasons at Maryland, averaging 12.7 ppg. and 6.8 rpg. in 136 career games with the Terrapins. Morris left Maryland ranked second all-time in games played and blocked shots, fourth in rebounds, and eighth in points, steals and three-pointers. He was named to the All-ACC Third Team as a senior (2000-01), Second Team as a junior (1999-2000) and First Team as a sophomore (1998-99), becoming the fourth sophomore in school history to earn the honor. As a senior, Morris helped Maryland to its first Final Four appearance in school history.

man weiß ja gar nicht, wen man mehr bemitleiden soll, die lakers-fans oder die magic-fans. andererseits verdienen beide seiten kein mitleid.

Der Trade wurde damals gemacht, weil John Gabriel Cap-Room haben wollte, um erneut einen Run auf Tim Duncan zu starten. Bo's Vertrag ging bekanntlich noch ein paar Jährchen und der von Buechler lief am Saisonende aus.
Was die düstere Legende bezüglich des Picks und Amare angeht: Diese wird zwar immer wieder hervorgekramt, leider ist sie aber falsch. Orlando hat die Rechte an einem Suns 1st Rounder zurückgeschickt. Es wird zwar immer gesagt, daß sei dann Amare geworden, das ist jedoch faktisch nicht korrekt. Dieser Pick (Nr. 9; 2002) wäre nämlich niemals der gewesen den die Magic bekommen hätten, da man nicht zwei Jahre hintereinander ohne 1st Round Pick dastehen darf.
Die Suns hatten 2001 keinen Pick, ergo wäre der 2002er so oder so bei ihnen geblieben. Diese Regel wurde übrigens eingeführt weil die Cavaliers (ich glaube sie waren's) Ende der 80er/Anfang der 90er ihre Picks recht häufig weggetradet haben.
Was Ken Johnson/Morris angeht, so sind daß Signings, die dazu gedacht sind, ein paar Bodies im Trainingscamp zu haben. Diese Signings hat Brian Shitz schon vor 3 Tagen angekündigt.

War es also wirklich dadurch so, dass Dallas sich 2005 keinen Erstrundenpick ertraden musste, dass sie die Rechte an Podkolzin von Utah 2004 bekamen, als sie auch keinen eigenen Erstrundenpick hatten.
Ansonsten verstehe ich die Regel immer noch nicht bzw. wieso das bei Dallas anders war.

Bo brings his blocks back to Orlando
BY JOHN DENTON
FLORIDA TODAY
ORLANDO - Looking to fill holes already created by injuries to veterans Kelvin Cato and Stacey Augmon, the Orlando Magic signed five players Thursday, highlighted by the reacquisition of Bo Outlaw.
Outlaw, 34, played for the Magic from 1997-2001, ranking second all-time in franchise history in blocked shots (518). He can play power forward and small forward. His one-year contract is only partially guaranteed, meaning he likely will compete for a job in training camp.
The Magic also signed center Ken Johnson, guard Felipe Lopez and small forwards Terence Morris and Matt Freije.
Cato, the Magic's likely starter at center, had offseason shoulder surgery and is expected to miss most exhibition games. Augmon, 37, has a hernia that will likely require surgery and keep him out two months.
The 6-foot-11, 240-pound Johnson played in 34 games in France last season, averaging 11.2 points, 5.2 rebounds and 2.1 blocks a game. Morris (6-9, 221) played previously in the NBA Development League.
Freije, a former Miami Heat draft pick, played in 27 games with the New Orleans Hornets last season, averaging 4.0 points and 2.7 rebounds. Lopez has played in 249 NBA games with the Grizzlies, Wizards and Timberwolves, averaging 5.8 points and 2.4 rebounds per game.
Johnson, Morris, Freije and Lopez are longshots to make the opening-day roster as the Magic already have 13 players with guaranteed contracts.
The Magic open training camp Tuesday at the University of North Florida in Jacksonville. The team will hold a scrimmage free to the fans Oct. 8 at UNF.
Also doch Lopez. Gut, hoffentlich bleibt er im Kader und schafft den "Durchbruch". Bei Freije kann ich mich nur an zwei, drei Hammer Dreier erinnern in irgend einem Hornetsspiel letzte Saison.

"Last year I didn't really get the ball, but I tried to help out in other ways," said Howard, who is up to 266 pounds from 245 this time last year. "I'm excited that (Hill) wants to play inside-out. And it's good to know that he trusts me enough to get me the ball more."

Tja...auf was sollen wir uns denn sonst gross freuen, ausser noch auch Hill & Nelson.
Man kann nur hoffen, das man Francis in der Offense endlich "entmachtet" und der Ball zuerst in den Low Post geht.
Bei weniger Balldominaz von Francis und einem noch besser aufgelegtem Hill, traue ich D12 durchaus 18-20/11-12 zu...

Noch was von unserem geliebtem D12!!!
"I see myself playing the rest of my career here in Orlando," Howard said. "I want to be part of the foundation of this team. I want to get this organization back to what it was when Shaq and Penny were here, where every game was full and people were excited to go watch the Magic."
