Re: Official Speculation Thread (Pt XX: Trade Deadline cont.
If the Nets can offer us a deal where we get Lopez+Brooks+Humpries+Picks and they take Duhon+Baby+Q then i'm sold....i mean we have the best chance at winning with Dwight but we're thinking about the short term....Ownership might be thinking long term here and letting Dwight walk for nothing puts us in rebuilding for a lot longer than i and maybe they would like....Trade him now and get a jump start on the rebuilding process....

Re: Official Speculation Thread (Pt XX: Trade Deadline cont.
In twitter is being said that Orlando and Sixers are closer to agree Howard's trade. 99% is crap, but I have to tell you about it. I guess we'll speak will most of NBA teams.
Apparently the Dwight Howard to Philly thing is still in the works and NOT official yet according to ESPN

Fake?!
I didn't see him tweet that, but he is a reporter for the Spurs who has been dishing out quotes of what Howard has said tonight. Like I said, I do NOT see that on his timeline.

Dwight: "They (ownership) know I care about the city, we've talked about it. But I can't do it all by myself, I want them to bring in help"
Are you joking me? We tried to get you Monta yesterday.

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.

Humphries has a No-Trade-Clause, and I'm not sure if he'd be willing to wave it to go to Orlando, to be honest. Although, he said he would waive it for the right situation.

Eyriq, shouldve been you, man.
Anyone else feel this way? Sorry bud.
Nope. jinxes aren't real.
viewtopic.php?f=25&t=1168515&start=90
You could argue this whole franchise has been a jinx long before i made these speculation threads (grant hill, shaq leaving, t-mac, losing seasons, bad trades/drafts, etc). let's get real... eh... i'm too huge of a magic fan to be called that by my fellow magic fan/peers... i kind of take it personal... let's get real here... if eyriq had made this trade, the news would have been the same... that jinx stuff isn't real, come on... i've been working hard on these threads for you guys.
But whatever I guess.
Edit* btw, eyriq made Part 9... there was a lot of bad news in there... OOPS.[/quote]
Relax man, I was joking too. I appreciate your efforts to keeping the greatest thread series alive.

I honestly thought when people were saying that **** to you they were just joking around. Are they really being serious? (Sorry I'm not paying attention to those posts)
