08:15 AM ET 01.12 | The Magic have been a constant in NBA rumors circles, namely because the team is very thin at the point guard position. The Magic have been rumored to have entertained trades involving forward Brian Cook and fan favorite J.J. Redick, both player played extended minutes last night and shot the ball very well from outside. "I don't know the rumor mill, I really don't subscribe to it," joked Otis Smith about the rumors of his team looking for deals with Redick and Cook. "We have a pretty good locker room, with a pretty good group of guys. When they are all healthy, we're a hard team to play. There are not a lot of teams that want to line up... tonight we shot the ball well, J.J. and Brian came in and did what they do, they shot it well and got a lot of open looks." The constant roadblock to a deal according to sources near the Magic is the commitment to the team's unique chemistry. The NBA trade deadline is less than 40 days away, and talks around the league are heating up and Otis admitted he and the Magic were looking and would continue to look for the right deal.
