Looks like the updates are coming in parts... like Odom isn't on the Mavs yet... but they have T-Mac on the Hawks... they'll release more updates leading up til the 25th


Yeah I can understand that but if they did have all the rookies "ready" then Magic rookies should already be in the game..

So liggins and harper made this 2nd update? It says there are only 12 rookies now, there were 4 on the first update. Lots of updating still needed. Might want to get your last games in with Dwight while you can.

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.


WTF! If that trade went through I would of flipped, Lopez + Wallace?! Seriously ?!


Does this mean BS is correct about trying to get the Lakers' bid up?

I didn't play as Orlando yet with the update... so you know better than I do atm

I was busy schooling the Celtics with the Kings (preferred position PG)... Jimmer at PG, Thornton at SG, and Tyreke at SF

Yup. **** him, he's mad he wasn't traded. He doesn't care what this franchise gets in return and the future of the franchise or city. He clearly wants to get out of here, I say we let him walk so he can lose money and a season. Reading that article has me pissed off.

I can't believe he actually brought that to ownership.....

So I guess this stuff is all posturing? The singing, and joking, and so on....

1.Dwight says trade me...2. Ownership says you'll be here this season....3. Soft Dwight realizes he'll have to see us fans and changes his tune for the media....

Dwights playing the media game... he'll be playing with Chris Paul soon, and they've both known this.
