This adds to the conspiracy. The Lakers, Stern, George Clinton, Heisenberg, the whole gang of them want to see the Magic fail.

Ugh, it's going to be a painful 10 years. I'll be sure to visit this forum though every night and make sure you people know I'm disappointed.

Free agent F Andray Blatche has agreed in principle to a 1-year contract paying the minimum with the Brooklyn Nets, a source told Y! Sports.

Interesting that he went with the Nets... let's see if Andray will mature this upcoming season or if he will still be a bonehead on the court & in the locker room... I hope it's the latter personally... screw the Nets :lol:


Dont worry, guys like him never mature. And now being in NY is going to give him more reasons to get in trouble. Its going to be fun seeing him torpedo that team.

Nothing great. But, a great minimum salary pickup.

Sure thing..dude has loads of talent but as happens often doesn't have the brains to match. one of those guys that just coasts on his natural talent wasting all that potential.

Imo rasheed Wallace was like that. Wallace would laugh as he posted people up because he knew they couldn't stop him. If he had that killer instinct he could've been one of the best pfs to ever play.

I watched just about every Piston game for the two years leading up to their championship. Sheed definitely developed that Killer Instinct once he got to Detroit. He was a locker room leader and on the floor. He went balls out many times. He had some games where he didn't give 100%. But, that is hard during an 81 game season. If he tried as hard as he did with the Pistons for those 3-4 years his whole career, he sure would have been an all time great along the lines of Karl Malone.

I may even still have Sheed avatars and sigs that was used here on RealGM from that time. I feel old now.

I know..I didn't say that he was....I think sheed could've accomplished more in terms player accolades. He made his mark in Detroit but prior to that he coasted and that's where I think they're similar....Sheed was practically unguardable plus its hard to argue titles.

Official Speculation Thread (Pt. XLVI "Re-Building" Edition) 

Post#1429 » by MagicTownBaller » Thu Sep 6, 2012 6:17 pm

Off-Topic, but, I was wondering if a mod could answer this for me.

Since we're all most likely looking forward to NBA 2K13, would it be okay to have a thread on the Magic board that is the "Official NBA 2K13 Thread"? Basketball news is really slow right now and that's something that I'm sure all of us would enjoy.
Not changing this Sig until the Orlando Magic win a championship (Technically Started 1-30-08)

I think it'd be a solid idea.

I'm no mod, but I'm down. I'll definitely be trying to win the championship in Association mode with this Magic squad. Gonna take several trades. I wish they'd include the TPE we have to absorb. I don't care what anyone says, I'm taking a chance with Greg Oden on this squad (virtually).

I bet Oden would be much cheaper on NBA 2k3 anyways.
