The Magic’s decision came Wednesday after the Nets assembled a multiteam trade proposal for Howard that would have sent the Magic center Brook Lopez, Portland Trail Blazers forward Gerald Wallace, point guard Jordan Farmar and a first-round draft pick. The Nets also would have taken on Chris Duhon and Hedo Turkoglu. The Blazers would have received four draft picks for Wallace.

Have you played online with Glen Davis yet? Not sure about that one either.


Yeah, his midrange game is pretty good. Sucks at rebounding tho

I wont be able to make it on time. My plane lands at 3 pm :oops: But this is an opportunity for fans to show more support for the team and not presume to tell Dwight what to do with his career. Show some class.

More from Yahoo! article: With the framework of a deal in place, talks had reached the ownership level in Orlando, league sources said. Nevertheless, Magic ownership did not approve of the trade, and general manager Otis Smith then informed teams Howard had been removed from the market.

Howard has warned the Magic if they don’t move him by the March 15 trade deadline, they’ll lose him for nothing in free agency. Howard told the Magic again on Wednesday that he wanted a trade, a league source said.

“Dwight’s not a happy camper,” one league source told Y! Sports


This is pretty bad. If true, Dwight really has made up his mind. Also, looks like Otis was ready to do another bad deal and "ownership" stopped it.

The thing I don't get is that I read 2K had all the rookies ready to go? Why are they lagging in getting them all in now :roll:
