Teams trying to get packages together for Dwight Howard are frustrated with tight window. As Western exec. says, "Just not enough time."

Then fly Dwight's mama to Orlando and tell her to ground Dwight until
he fires Fegan. Mama always trumps agent
            
                                    
                                    
                        he fires Fegan. Mama always trumps agent

Like I said, I think ownership agrees Dwight is somewhat sincere, but I think they also realize he isn't making his own decisions. So they worry that when decision time comes this summer, he won't have the balls to ignore his agent's request to move to Brooklyn and stay with the Magic. If I were ownership I wouldn't think that would change either. Especially not with the recent events of claiming to opt-in and then not. A tiger can't change its stripes. He isn't man enough to make his own decisions, never has been, prob never will be. I think ownership realizes that. I think if this were Kobe or somebody similar, that they would be more willing to take that risk.
You're missing the point. Dwight can't make that decision, cuz Dan Fegan isn't telling Dwight to fire Dan Fegan

What's he still babbling about?
He wants a hand in changing the team? He was already given the chance to decide the fate of both our coach and GM and he was already offered the chance to play with Monta Ellis, someone he personally hand-picked!

Re: Official Speculation Thread (Pt XX: Trade Deadline cont.
who would have ever that this would be a 20+ thread topic?  I thought maybe 10-15 but 20?  this just shows how much we care for this franchise and city.  With that let whatever happens happen and lets make the best for the rest of the season.

You're going to stay up all night only to fall asleep right before there's a trade.

Tight window? What has the past 3 months been?
            
                                    
                                    11/18/2017 - I have officially disowned Nikola Vucevic and branded him a loser.
- Skal Labissiere was my guy in 2016 pre-trade. Whoops, but I still believe.
- Malik Monk was my guy in 2017. Whoops(?)
- Mo Bamba was my guy in 2018. TBD.

Why not? Dwight did.
