TRADE WINDS: Orlando Magic Facing Inevitable SHAKEUP? Key decisions LOOM soon

The Orlando Magic are a team at a crossroads. They have acknowledged that they will make a move to break apart this roster in the face of their rising payroll. The league is already predicting and preparing for the Magic to be active at the trade deadline.

Their struggles are only causing the sharks to circle the team faster. There are already plenty of commentators trying to pick at the carcas and extract value from this Magic roster.

But Orlando is in a strange spot. They have every reason to keep trying to win even as they try to decrease their payroll. This is a team poised to reset more than retool. And that is not what the rest of the league seems to think they will do.

Orlando does not seem ready to make the big decision about their roster. There is a lot of basketball to play. And Orlando is not anywhere near out of the postseason chase yet.
