Hmmm...on the D12 issue....i would love to keep him....but if he isn't about Orlando why not get some value for him? i'll take Brook Lopez/Marshon and some picks while getting rid of some bad players.....If the situation isn't salvageable why go through the motions?

it's like trying to stay together when all signs point to the fact that it's over.....but then again....Dwight is the master of indecisiveness....but me personally i want to know what Dwight wants to do ASAP.....it's not fair to us the fans if he puts us through another year of this......Dwight if you want out let us know.....if you want to stay let us know....there's no way we can move forward with the "what if" always in the back of our minds.......

define "moving forward". everything we need to do can be done without a commitment from dwight. a change is needed regardless. if a player isn't bigger than a franchise then why wait on a decision from the player.

ChildishGambino · Post #1351 » by **ChildishGambino** » Mon May 21, 2012 5:35 am

when i say moving forward i mean get to a point where we can put all this behind us....if Dwight goes into this upcoming season again wishy washy....wanting to stay one minute and wanting the leave the next....If he lets us know he will stay if we make moves then we can move forward and improve the team knowing that Dwight will stay.....Of course we should always want to improve the team regardless but our situation changes alot if Dwight is still on the roster.....him on the roster dictates what kind of moves we make imo......

So, did Jameer opt-in or out? It's been way longer than 7 days.

rcklsscognition · Post #1353 » by **rcklsscognition** » Mon May 21, 2012 12:43 pm

I wouldn't think the owner would wait until he had a replacement to fire Stan and Otis, unless he's afraid of turning into the Blazers. But, that seems to be what's happening here.

He's got until June 15th for some reason. Most players have 1 week after last game, but for him, still nearly a month.

To clarify the opt in stuff its, 7 days from the end of the Finals/NBA Season. Otis just got the dates confused which shows he is completely out of the loop...

Tommorrow it will be two weeks since the seaon ended and not a peep from the idiots at the top on what will happen to Otis and SVG. It seriously should not take this long to make a decision. Especially on Otis, there literally is nothing about him that makes you have to think about what he has done and if he should keep his job.

BadMofoPimp · Post #1357 » by **BadMofoPimp** » Mon May 21, 2012 4:04 pm

I predict the Magic will have Dwight, Stan and Otis next year.

Just Joking!!!!

my only hope is that they are waiting to announce not just the departure of whoever is getting let go but also their replacements and thats what is causing the delay
