I like how we have such a "small hope" of keeping Dwight still. That means, they either are talking out of one end and making this ish up when Dwight extends/ends up staying, or the Magic franchise just let a top 5 coach go for nothing. Either way, there's a huge idiot somewhere there.

Magic will probably have a GM hired first, hopefully by mid next-week, and he'll help with the coaching search.

Do you think Chris Duhon is a good basketball player?


Every potential GM and coach need to answer this question before getting an interview with the Magic.
