he hired the gm's, yea he gets blame

devos has to approve of the deal and crap as well. if he approves it then yes HE gets a lot of SH.IT for it. Might as well spam the GMs EMail and tell him how u feel about the deal

Something is not right about this.....

Yea, we hired a GM with no experience.

Been gone for the past 4 hours. Can someone tell me what the hell is going on and whether I should still be a Magic fan.

Is this deal really better than the Nets? Still saddled with bad contracts and mediocre players but w/o cap relief and picks..

Dwight Howard: Top 3 player in the league, most dominant player in the league...Traded for...Affalo.

Meanwhile the Lakers get Howard, Denver gets Iggy, and Sixers get Bynum.

Everyone wins here.

Depends...how fond are you of role players and late first rounders?

The Magic just got gang banged by the other teams, we had the best player and we end up with this crap. We got screwed without lubrication.

How the **** do the **** lakers not take any bad contracts? They win every **** trade! If this goes down I might just be done with the nba.

Just root for the lakers. Not because they just got Dwight but because their organization knows how to build a contender while the magic continually lose every trade they make.... Even when they trade the second best player in the league, they come in last out of the four teams involved in the trade.

Seriously if Stern ran this team, he would've cockbloccked the **** out of the Lakers, probably would get you the same package as for Chris Paul...

As silly as he is, he knows the business side of basketball like noone else

We're not for sale, Stern doesn't care about us.
