Players represented by Dan Fegan.

Fegan basically owns brazilian market and has a lot of clients from Latin countries, all the brazilians in the NBA and the one who will come (Augusto, Raul, Scott Machado, Lucas, etc) are Fegan's client. Just Tiago Splitter has another agent.

Another thing, there is a guy who works for Dan Fegan, he is the 2nd in charge, and his name is Sandro Varejão, who is Anderson's older brother. He also used to play in Brazilian National Team, but some time ago with Oscar Schmidt.

Another thing, D12 likes CLee and SJax... who is their agent? I dont need to answer, right? Even Arenas's agent is Fegan.

BTW, Kevin Martin's agent is Dan Fegan too.

Wow, JR is RIPPPPPPPINGGGGG the Magic right now on Stephen A's radio show. saying that they gave Dwight two "first class" air tran tix instead of using a private jet. Also, saying that they promised him they were going to acquire Monta and Stephen Jax on last years draft night. Nothing happened. Wow......... He is going off right now!

THOSE SONS OF BITCHES!!! FIRST CLASS? ARE YOU F'N KIDDING ME? THAT JUSTIFIES HIS TRADE REQUEST ALL ON IT'S OWN!!!! MY BLOOD IS BOOOOOOILING RIGHT NOW!!!!!

Seriously, if that right there doesn't highlight how disconnected from every day life these guys are, I really don't know what to say. Re: Jackson and Monta - who's to say they didn't try. I'm willing to bet they told him they would move heaven and earth to try and get those guys, but then a) Dwight got his wish and our coach and GM both departed, and b) Even if, when he arrived, Hennigan was agreeable to following through on those promises, it still takes two to tango, and there's no guarantee the other teams were willing to deal.

Rudolph is a certifiable moron.

Didn't all of this occur AFTER dwight already started being a douche and Jameer had to put him in place?

Yes, I was talking retroactive justification. And not being serious.

[arkknight1988]

i just want to say the media is a complete joke. may as well be fegan with a rudolph mask on. they are trying to pressure the magic into making a bad move but hennigan is in no rush, i love it.

- Belém.

85
00:08:17,797 --> 00:08:21,699
<i>Don't suppose that Belém is famous</i>
<i>for having a 10-to-1 ratio of women to men...</i>

86
00:08:21,801 --> 00:08:23,735
where even the ugly girls
look like Giselle.

87
00:08:23,836 --> 00:08:26,896

00:08:27,006 --> 00:08:29,338
with a soft spot for charming

89
00:08:29,442 --> 00:08:31,910
Uh, not that I'm aware of, no.

90
00:08:32,011 --> 00:08:33,911
- Too bad.
- 'Cause Floripa is.

- It's a tiny town.

You know what i mean

[Idunkonyou2]

I doubt Rob actually watches SC or ESPN or the media since he has all the power right now.

[arkknight1988]

this is just like when the nets, media, and dwights people said a deal was "imminent" and tried to push the magic into taking a bad deal. why are the lakers in such a hurry to get this done?

apparently, this is also holding up other transactions for them.

they're just butthurt Rob isn't bowing down to their demands.

[Magicalltheway]

@Magicalltheway
My bad, 7 letters that 3 way deal from LAL/ORL/CLE sure is making me look dumber day by day.

is that with the slashes or without,

[SolidSnake008]

Ok we still don't have a coach yet? for some reason i'm starting to get ticked off with the organization for dragging our *ss.....

aka hurry up and make a bad deal before houston gets involved. honestly bynum for dwight straight up is not a fair trade unless u are a lakers fan

[InFlames]

Jason Lloyd Andrew Bynum's agent, David Lee, told me he has had zero conversations with #Cavs GM Chris Grant about a possible trade. "I would imagine any team involved in this trade would be smart enough to talk to us," Lee said, referring to the fact Bynum is entering the final year of his deal.


Quote
Jason Lloyd David Lee, Bynum's agent, said he was baffled by the recent Yahoo! report that listed Cleveland as a potential destination for Bynum in free agency. "When I read it online I was in Alaska with Andrew and his family ... I was taken aback by the list considering there is nobody in anybody’s camp he could’ve been talking to. I have no idea where that came about."

Uh, so they can move on to other important things like their bench? There's a ton of reasons for them to want it done soon. Either they get Dwight and build their team around that or they move on and start trying to get Bynum locked up in an extension. It changes a lot of things whichever one they get - if you get Dwight they would probably need to sign 3 pt shooters for their bench and a backup C for if he's hurt, whereas if you have Bynum you probably want more athletic guys for the bench

Eventually the Lakers are going to have make a choice. I've said for awhile now that at the rate Henny is going the Lakers are going to withdraw like the Nets and be off the table. And truthfully it kinda seems like he WANTS that. Goes back to the idea that they don't really want to trade Dwight

At this point my prediction is that they're going to let everyone walk away over the next couple weeks except the Rockets and then they'll try to sell it on "Well, you only have us or the Rockets. Make your choice" thinking that he'll choose us and sign long term if those are his only options. I think it'll blow up in their faces..but that's what I see as most likely right now

proof that the media is complete bs.

[Idunkonyou2]

Bynum's agent just destroyed every media report.

[Driguez]

WTF is going on? And why are people still listening to Rudolph's idiotic ass?

So we can toss this BS shortlist that Bynum had out the window then.

Or its a conspiracy......dun dunt daaaa!

[thelead]

Dwight will be a Rocket or Magic next year. I seriously doubt the Rockets are offering much, so I still maintain, Dwight will be on the Magic unless a ridiculous offer comes in. The only thing that gives me doubts about my prediction is the fact that Hennigan gave Jameer so much money that it will hinder our chance to improve through free agency; if that's what Hennigan was going to sell Dwight on anyways.
