Jeff Green the perfect fit for Orlando's new identity

The grit and grind era of Magic basketball is here, and no one has endured more of it than new forward Jeff Green

The Orlando Magic led off their introductory press conferences on Thursday with veteran small forward Jeff Green. The former Georgetown Hoya signed a one-year, $15 million dollar deal after splitting last year between the Memphis Grizzlies and Los Angeles Clippers.

Green can be viewed as a representation of this offseason, the next in a line of veterans brought in to reshape the Magic locker room. His no-nonsense game is predicated on physical defense; his highlight reel is mostly rim rattling dunks.
