went to college up near Atlanta...alot of friends are Hawks fans...I've watched a lot of hawks games while I was there...they would shake my hand for taking him off their hands no thanks.
The hero Orlando deserves is out there somewhere, Dwight was not the one we needed. So we will hunt for him...

and averaged only 10ppg against the bulls in the playoffs. Crawford would not get us over the top and would get locked up in the playoffs just like our current players did.

I don't know that Redick is better then Crawful, but I'd take him on my team 11 times out of 10 over that ball stopping, turnstile defense playing, low BBIQ chucker.

Dwight Howard's shooting coach waited at the gym from about 3 pm until about 7:30 pm, then D12 cancelled his workout session for the day. via twitter 2 mins ago


I don't know if thats good or bad.

Does this mean the meeting is over? I'm so confused.

The Rockets, Celtics and Mavericks have told the Hornets that they are prepared to trade for Chris Paul without an assurance that he would sign a long-term deal.

Boston is believed to have the best potential offer out of those three teams since they would include Rajon Rondo.

Those so-called gambling teams would almost certainly beat any deal that the Knicks could offer, even though they are widely presumed to be Paul's preferred destination.


If true not good at all..

Josh Smith is like that guy in a pick up game you pick because he looks really good...then you play with him and regret it immediately because he has no feel for the game...yea he does good things, but the shot selection is beyond miserable (and you guys complain about Nelson's)...granted he is Dwights BFF which would entice him to stay, but sometimes what you want and what you need are two different things


I'd be cool with ellis..he can continue to do what he does best and score, Dwight will help his D out and grab anything he misses. I really want Jeremy Lamb off UCONN i believe he is going be TMAC part 2 in the league...he is soo smooth.

I'm guessing this is a smoke screen or part of a bigger picture.

I can't imagine dwight in there chatting for hours and hours and nothing big being planned out.
worst thing otis could do is trying to "work phones" and get rejected in dwight's presence.

I suppose they could be picking his next team... ugh.

I don't know what to believe about a Dwight/Otis meeting. I'm told there wasn't a meeting by 1 person and told there was a meeting by 10 ppl

Both sides may be going dark at this point. Certainly seems that way.
