OH yeah, so magic fans, are we breathing a sigh of relief that the trade with HOU did not go down? Otherwise we would have Royce as our headache


though we could have had the picks before the draft, too, and draft whomever we wanted instead.

"O'Quinn will have a longer and more successful NBA career than Nicholson." Predicted Jun 2012. Verified on Dec 2014.

Houston picks could have landed us any of Lamb, Harkless, Nicholson, Jones, JonesIII, Sullinger, etc.

Although, i personally was a White fan prior to the draft. really thought he had great promise and that he could get a handle of his disorder with NBA money and help.

^^ Henny continues to look like a genius with passing on this guy. Thank goodness we do not have to deal with that crap. Sucks for Sixers fans though.

So, we may have lost to the Raptors, but at least we didn't get blown out by twenty like the Celtics did to the Pistons. (Ironically enough, the Celtics blew the Raptors out by eighteen yesterday.)

A prominent, highly respected orthopedic surgeon who is not involved in Bynum’s treatment and has not seen his MRIs, told The News Journal that Bynum has likely been diagnosed with osteochondral lesions. The condition may heal on its own, but will likely keep Bynum from practicing until March or April, at the earliest. If it doesn’t heal, Bynum will require surgery that could sideline him for up to a year. He should find out if he needs surgery by as early as December, the surgeon said.

Oden hurt his knee getting up from a sofa. Bynum reinjures his knee while bowling. When you get injured doing fairly normal things, the basketball is not in the future for these guys.

Negative press for Bynum continues... Former Teammate Says ‘No Other NBA Player Likes Basketball Less’
“I started investigating [the bowling] a little bit,” Twersky said. “And one of the people that I hit, a guy who has played with him before, he texted me back and said ‘I don’t know if that’s true [the bowling], but I do know that I’ve never met another player in the league who likes basketball less [than Bynum].”

In 34 minutes so far tonight, Dwight has just 3 shots and zero FTs. If the Kings hang on to win, which I doubt, but if they do, there's going to be some hilarious Dwight whining after the game. Heck, even if they win I bet he whines about shots.
11/18/2017 - I have officially disowned Nikola Vucevic and branded him a loser.

- Skal Labissiere was my guy in 2016 pre-trade. Whoops, but I still believe.
- Malik Monk was my guy in 2017. Whoops(?)
- Mo Bamba was my guy in 2018. TBD.
