Anderson + Meer for Deron is just as fair as Lopez for Dwight.


Especially since Anderson is about as good as Lopez if not better.

If Anderson keeps scoring 25 ppg I think his trade value sky rockets! Keep him in the starting lineup and give him the green light to chuck away!

We do need to start over so I am all for a trade now. Dwight has peaked as an offensive player. I just can't see him getting much better and he just refuses to dominate a game like a Bill Russell did. The game has evolved where you don't need a great big man anymore.

If he keeps doing this he will be our best player. And yes the Magic would trade him for garbage at that time. It's what we do best.

How about this trade, Mo Williams for Jason Richardson.

LA has 3 pg's with cp3, mo williams, and billups who's even playing sg. they get an actual sg and if anybody can make j-rich productive, it's cp3. question is would they like his contract?

for us, no more duhon.


I don't want them to make Jason Richardson productive man, I want to trade for a PG that makes him productive for us :roll: . Take it easy guys, it was the first game of the season J-Rich is a good player, we need to stop a little, we can't trade guys without even playing one year for our team. Time is much needed to develop.

Clippers actually have 4 1/2 pgs. You forgot to mention their lottery pick last year in Eric Bledsoe and the 1/2 pg 1/2 undersized sg in Randy Foye. The Clips will definitely make a move for a bigger 2 guard in the very near future.

But Mo Williams is not the answer. He doesnt make anyone better, he is just a scorer and a very average defender.

Check rudolphs twitter, he went off on a bunch of rants about magic that were right on imo.

Jameer doesn't have the value of a Lopez

Interesting quote by Stern.

"But, to me, I am of the view that when somebody has put in his years so to speak and he has earned his free agency he's free to decide where he'll sign, and he's not under a compunction under our system to re-sign with a team if he doesn't want to. But how it plays out? We'll all wait and see."

Sounds like more Dwight Coward to Lakers rhetoric.

Because it's not Lopez for Dwight, It's Lopez, a lottery pick (they're gonna suck this year), a later first round draft choice in Brooks, Anthony Morrow, a great shooter, and probably every pick NJ has from here till 2017. The Cavs got the Heat's 1st round pick till 2016. Also there is a top-14 protected Houston 1st round pick available if the Rockets can be mediocre this year.

Also they will trade Okur for Turkoglu straight up, their salaries are nearly identical and Okur can be traded at any time, there is no hold on him.

I said this before.. .but if we could trade Dwight for Rondo, that's a move I would love. The Celtics have been talking about going after Howard and they did offer up Rondo for CP3....

So yeah, I want that. Would you?

Definitely prefer to keep Dwight.. but if we had to...

No, I don't think it would be straight up, but that would be the basis of it.

...and I would love to keep Dwight first and foremost. Just saying if we had to.

Screw you and your attitude. Dwight has given up, he's not even showing up to play anymore, he's mailing it in. He's a loser and always will be. I would never ever go join a winning team to get a ring, i'd want to beat them to get it. IN this case will Perdue is a greater player than Ewing or K Malone or Barkley cause he has ring and they don't. You can beg Dwight to stay all you want, he's checked out.

My attitude? I didn't go from a respected poster to hating negative Nancy like you did sir. The past 12-18 months you post nothing but negative crap about the Magic and Dwight. So why even post on this board anymore ?

Taking our bad contracts would be great in itself.

Hate being woulda coulda shoulda guy but man, Brandon Rush woulda been a nice pickup, especially considering he was traded for a journeyman C/ PF like Louis Amundson.
