One of the oldest ongoing rumors around the NBA continues to involve both the Orlando Magic and Tim Duncan.  It is no secret that the Magic covet the league?s premier player.  But according to David Whitley of the Orlando Sentinel the uniting of the two parties is nothing more than a pipe dream, ?there's a better chance Grant Hill will enter the Olympic triple jump? according to Whitley.

While the Magic immediately moved into the Duncan Recruitment II plan after David Robinson talked the league MVP into staying with the spurs back in 2000 the Spurs were able to counter by arranging their contracts to expire at the same time as Duncan?s.  This means that Duncan will be able to attempt to woo free agents like Jason Kidd, Jermaine O?Neal and Andre Miller down into Texas.  Remember Jason Kidd has not tied himself to the Nets organization in his words so far, so anything is possible.

Duncan also married his girlfriend who Whitley reports was not high on Orlando two years ago, another thing working against the Magic.
