lol that didnt look/sound like someone that wants to leave. That sounds like someone who wants to win and have everyone give 100% INCLUDING THE FANS. so stop with the tweeter baums!

maybe he was in a good mood because he knows something, who knows.

Dwight leaving the door open to remain with the Magic.

What a portion of dumbass fans slam it shut by booing him at the home opener.

*hope*

i like this. we need more than big baby though. do everything dwight wants right now. egos are not important in the big picture get dwight what he wants! i mean big baby wasn't hard to get. i think anderson and redick need to be he next to go. Q plays with heart so he should stay. bring back earl and most importantly get a player who can create his own shot to take pressure off dwight. sjax?

That 100% sounded like a guy who wants to stay but wants some changes. It also sounds like he is sick of the hater fans bothering him.

btw, i saw the Dwight interview just a few minutes ago on the ustream... umm... i was happy to see him a Magic jersey, I was happy to see him joke around, and his attitude seems a little different... much more positive... BUT... the problem is still the same... he wants change, and wants help, right now... I didn't like how the interview ended on that awkward not :-/

Davis is speaking a lot of sense right now... dang, I didn't know that had that long of a history together, dating all the way back to high school...

Whoah, anyone check out top story on google news? Nets owner is going to challenge Putin for the presidency in Russia. How can you be an effective NBA owner AND run a country... or even just a campaign? It's time consuming, especially to take on a behemoth like Putin who's been there forever. What exactly is he pitching Dwight on, max contract and political power? Something is sketchy here...

Ryno needs to take more advantage of Twitter. He's a funny guy.

What did he say about the BBQ?

"You either BBQ or you.... and I'm gonna BBQ. I'm going to keep moving forward. There's no other place I wanna be than Orlando. There's a lot of things that have to change with the culture."

Dwight Howard, playful and munching popcorn, just told me a joke that I can't repeat because children are on twitter. He was in a good mood

He keeps saying culture needs to change, wouldn't that start with coaching and the players being brought in? One of Stan or Otis needs to go and it's definitely Otis..
