FILE - This Dec. 14, 2010, file photo shows Orlando Magic center Marcin Gortat(notes) grabbing a loose ball against Denver Nuggets forward Carmelo Anthony(notes) during the second half of an NBA basketball game, in Denver. The Magic acquired troubled guard Gilbert Arenas(notes) from the Washington Wizards and Hedo Turkoglu(notes) and Jason Richardson(notes) from the Phoenix Suns in a major roster shakeup Saturday, Dec. 18, 2010. The Magic announced that they traded forward Rashard Lewis(notes) for Arenas. They sent Phoenix guards Vince Carter(notes) and Mickael Pietrus(notes) and backup center Marcin Gortat.

So much for another tweak. A rough patch early this season was enough to convince the Orlando Magic that perhaps they weren't good enough to contend in the Eastern Conference after all. They acquired troubled guard Gilbert Arenas from the Washington Wizards and Hedo Turkoglu and Jason Richardson from the Phoenix Suns in a major roster shake-up Saturday.
