Redick repeatedly have approached the Orlando Magic about a trade that could provide the seldom-used shooting guard more playing time, but general manager Otis Smith said there are no plans to move Redick anytime soon. Like last season, Redick has struggled to get consistent minutes with the Magic. The former college player of the year at Duke University has played in just 20 games this season for the 28-18 Magic. He is averaging just 3.7 points a game in 8.3 minutes a game this season. Maurice Evans, Keith Bogans and Keyon Dooling have taken turns starting at shooting guard, and because they are better defenders and rebounders, Redick has struggled to get little if any playing time for long stretches. Redick said recently he has met twice with Magic coach Stan Van Gundy to air his frustrations about his lack of playing time. And Redick's powerful representative, Arn Tellem, also has discussed the possibility of a trade that could free up some playing time. But Smith said because he knows Redick is a competent player merely in a tough situation, he has no plans to move him before the Feb. 21 NBA trade deadline. Also playing into Smith's thinking is the potential makeup of the Magic's roster come this summer. "We know that he can play, but as with a lot of young guys he just has to be patient," said Smith, who drafted Redick 11th overall in the 2006 NBA Draft. "If I trade him and he goes somewhere else and plays well, then what?ime. "Look at how many free agents at guard that I have coming up next summer -- Carlos (Arroyo), Keyon (Dooling), Mo (Evans) and if the other guy (Keith Bogans) opts out, that would make four. J.J. could go from the bottom (of the depth chart) to the top, but he's got to be patient." Van Gundy said he has conversations with his assistant coaches on a daily basis asking, 'Should we be playing him?' as it relates to Redick. He said Redick's ardent practice habits and how he has responded when put in games has made it difficult to keep Redick on the bench. "I think about him all the time, and he makes you think about him with the way he practices," Van Gundy said. "I know he's really frustrated because there's not much more he can do. He plays well out here in practice, and when we give him chances in games he's played well. That's a frustrating thing, but he has to keep doing what he's doing. It's not a negative thing with him. I know he can help us and I'm sure he will." 大意是JJ因為不滿上場時間 透過經紀人表達想要被交易 然後Otis大叔出來滅火說:魔術還有很多年輕球員，然後今年Dooling,Arooyo,Evans等人 的合約會到期，JJ會有機會之類的blablabla..... 其中有一句令人非常不滿"If I trade him and he goes somewhere else and plays well, then what? <-寧可冰死JJ也不用他!? 嗯...Otis大叔 我真服了你... --
