Magic GM Rob Hennigan described his talk last night with D12 as "just an exchange of what's going on."

Josh Robbins ‏@JoshuaBRobbins
Asked if he knows what D12 wants to do now, Hennigan said, "That's not necessarily true."

Like a tranny with a big bulge down low, Rob isn't fooling anybody.

Yes he would. He does not know that yet but he would.
They will treat him like premadona he is and he will like it.
They will show him ability to build around him and he will like it.
Plus, money talks.
We would do the same with him but looks like
value we get in this trade outweights the risk we would take with him.
Houston will pitch new start for him.
Good deal for both sides.

Teams have shown in the past, they aren't afraid to make their team deeper for the playoffs. Hedo come trade deadline could help a lot of teams who are in position for a playoff run, I would rather trade Dwight along with JRich, Clark, Duhon, and possibly Harper or Q Richarsdon. Sign our rookies. Sign Aaron Brooks to a 1 yr deal. Sign one of our Pg from the summer league. And go from there

Why would you send out Clark, Harper of Q who make such a small amount of money ?

[/quote]

Give their time to our rookies and let them develop slowly while their game adapts to the NBA... Losing Clark is not a big deal

Random. Hennigan kills me with his selective verbal approach to media lol.

he says things such as

"We’ve had talks with a few teams"
"We don't have a time set"
"We want this team to be better"

Only so the media can stop making stuff up.
I'd wish Hennigan would say things such as.

"The Nets Package was BS"
"Dwight's Still being a little *****"
"We Will have our coach by friday" it'll make things so much easier haha
