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


I worry about that too. Fans will be boo first game in Orlando and it wont help at all.

me too... let's face it... we're a microcosm of all the Magic fans in Central Florida... and a lot of the casual fans (no offense) are pretty stupid or ignorant of the situation most of the time, and it's exacerbated when alcohol is in their system... so... i'm hoping they won't boo... but i'm dreading they will :-? and it will definitely F everything up

I came out today infinitely more hopefully. The letdown from going from today to a D12 trade will be much worse now.

I'm so excited for Big Baby, he's going to be so valuable to this team.

Not only that... my mind will sh*t bricks if Davis puts up break-out season numbers of 17/9... that will also help... I mean he will be starting for us and he looks to be in great shape, I would assume... crazier things have happened

I think Phil Jackson as the new GM/Coach could fix everything.

Dwight is still leaving the door open for us to change him mind... where's Otis during all of this? Hopefully in his office making a deal? lol

Very impressed with Glen Davis. Very well-spoken. Says good things, hopefully he means them. I think he'll be a much more valuable presence in the locker room than Bass. I loved what he did, but he certainly didn't bring any x-factors with his personality.

Man, this is going to hurt a lot more if D12 gets traded. He is putting it all on the shoulders of Otis.

I love the fact that Dwight's lighting a fire underneath management specifically Otis.. After Alex Martins had a conversation with him this morning apparently, it seems Dwight is more at ease. I hope it's not a "save face while your still here" with the fans after coming out like he did the other day. But I'll remain optimistic, we could pull a rabbit out of a hat and if Big Baby's already committing to try to talk to Dwight, maybe the "culture" Dwight so desires may come this season. It'll be an interesting next couple weeks..
