*Drop Welsch to make this work

agreed, Troy Murphy as quality of a player as he is, is just too low on my DC especially with the emergence of Tony Curran to do anything spectacular for me. Not to mention he is well overpaid which makes him difficult to move. Mobley gives me some defense as well as scoring off the bench and may serve me better than Phillip Meyers who i love personally, but of course time will have to tell until i figure out how I'm going to manage my final DC come playoff time. Strickland is a nice filler and i'll see how my roster shapes up next year as to whether i'll resign him or not. Besides, anytime you can get deeper by giving up players you haven't been using...it's a good trade in my book.

Also part of the Magic youth movement. Sad to see Mobley leaving the team. His hope of getting his jersey retired is diminished now.

Now is the time to offer Murphy and a 1st for Magloire.

anyway, Troy gives my team more inside presence, and with another deal on pending, I think I'll have a more versatile team down the stretch.

Rebounding has been one of my team strength as well as defense, I think with the addition of Troy, this deal could help my team for further enhancement.

Mobley's points off the bench will sorrowly be missed, but additions such as these are very much welcomed.

Strickland has actually deterriorated for 2 straight years
I think Sakuragi Hanamichi is better than him.
