The Orlando Magic's coaching search has picked up steam this week. They are clearly in the interview phase. A hire could be coming soon as the team examines its wants and desires in a head coach.What is clear is that as the Magic begin their rebuild and begin to pick up the pieces, their next coaching hire will be vitally important. It was one of the major pieces Rob Hennigan got wrong from the start. It is why the Philadelphia 76ers seem to have the culture that a rebuilding team would envy (in addition to the talent).As the Magic pick their next coach, they have to find someone who will work in lockstep with management and echo and amplify their message and goals. That is far more important than the experience or traits the coach has. It is the key to this whole project. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

We have our first trade deadline deal -- almost exactly 72 hours before Thursday's NBA trade deadline.Just months after signing a max contract extension with the Orlando Magic, Tobias Harris is being dealt to the Detroit Pistons for point guard Brandon Jennings and stretch forward Ersan Ilyasova.The news was broken by our own Michael Scotto -- not a bad scoop for that young man.The deal appears to be a coup for Pistons coach/general manager Stan Van Gundy, who is acquiring one of the league's top young talents in exchange for a backup point guard (though in truth, Jennings would be a starter if not for Detroit's acquisition of Reggie Jackson at the deadline a year ago) and a stretch 4 who is in the middle tier, at best, of the NBA's stretch 4s.Harris has been averaging 13.7 points and 7.0 rebounds for the Magic while shooting 46 percent from the field, with his scoring total off significantly from the 17.1 points he averaged last season -- his third with the Magic after being acquired from Milwaukee in a deal for J.J. Redick that was considered one of the best ever made by Magic general manager Rob Hennigan. His 3-point percentage of .311 is down from last year's number of .364.With Detroit, he will likely start on the front line that also includes Andre Drummond, who leads the NBAs in double-doubles, and Marcus MorrisJennings will presumably take over the starting point guard spot from Elfrid Payton as Scott Skiles tries to make a playoff push with a team that started the season strongly but has slumped badly since they were 19-13 at the start of 2016, losing 16 of 20 to drop to 11th place in the Eastern Conference, 3 1/2 games behind the Charlotte Hornets.Here is Scotto discussing the deal on SiriusXM Radio with hosts Mateen Cleaves and Jared Greenberg.
