Dice would rather retire before playing in a Magic jersey as well. He has stated repeatedly that if he got traded he would rather retire, so it looks liek he is either going to retire or be bought out.

Its not that Dice doesn't want to play in Denver, its that Dice doesn't want to play anywhere outside of Detroit. I think it would be simple for them to swing Dice to Houston for Francis/Head/Hayes (which I proposed yesterday), but not if Dice threatens to retire if he can't play in Detroit.

I thought it was because he is bitter at Denver for trading him the 1st time.... Orlando would be good place to retire

If McDyess is going to retire- isn't that better for Denver anyway? They don't have to pay him if he retires and he wouldn't count towards the luxury tax.

Denver's traded him twice now, so it could not be the 1st time he was traded. :wink:
