Go Here For Part VII -> viewtopic.php?f=25&t=1143609


GO MAGIC!



Or you guys can just head on over there whenever this reaches 99/100 pages. Whichever. Thanks. Be back later.

Warriors really overpaid .. Incredible
@johnschuhmann John Schuhmann
So the Warriors are paying Andris Biedrins & Kwame Brown a total of $16 million this season. Goodness gracious.

@BeckleyMason Beckley Mason
Golden state almost had Paul and/or Chandler. Now singing Kwame Brown for 7mil. Spent offseason cleaning shotgun to blast own kneecap.

It's gonna be complicated with these 2 threads, maybe the Mods can close the 8th thread & unlock it when this thread reaches 100pgs ??

I'm staying in here till 100. Hard to believe the Warriors have committed so much to the F/C position. They've got to get someone out of there and that guy is obviously Biedrins.

I cant believe Kwame got 7 mil for the one season, whats the point of that? Are the warriors just that desperate? I think he is a decent C but come on.

+1, I hope everyone stays in this thread (maybe temporarily close the other one till this reaches 100 as I suggested?) cause it's gonna be hard to follow if we're discussing the same thing in 2 threads :D

And thinking about it does this somehow make Andris expendable in a deal for Ellis? I know its probably unlikely with JRich being here till march though maybe then if we need a big spark?

Earl Clark wants to re-sign with the Magic, but the Dwight Howard drama has held things up. Clark also has an offer from the Nuggets.

What confused me was the whole going to the Nets thing. The Nets will forever be second fiddle to the Knicks, just like the Mets are to the Yankees. Plus Diwght will just be another star in NY. There are football players, baseball players and even hockey.

He is never going to be as big a deal around NY as he is in FL.

If he goes to the lakers he will always be known as Shaq the second. Unless he wins more than 3 rings there he will be considered inferior to Shaq.

Why would the Magic want Brook Lopez and 2 picks which would turn out to be like Harper and Orton for Dwight Howard that would be a joke

Let's forget about Ellis for now .. They like Biedrins now apparently

RT“@BernardHeard: @JacksonMark13 you think Biedrins will be back to his old self this season?”...Yes!

If it were true someone would have "broke it" or at least we would be hearing a "sources say".

Plus I just can't see anything the nets have getting it done.

Traded today to NJ? I don't believe that, at least, not for the current deal we have all heard about.

Yeah we might have to give up on Ellis...Unless Mark is just trying to put pressure on his FO to NOT trade those guys...but it's funny before Mark got there you were hearing things that Golden State wants to move forward with Curry alone instead of both Ellis and Curry sharing the ball...then everything changes...that's basketball i guess

NJ already said they were moving on cause Orlando made it clear that we're not trading Dwight ..

Return to Orlando Magic
