He'd only get through signing his first name on the paperwork, then decide to sleep on it before deciding whether or not to finish his signature.

I think I would be surprised if he signed, but wouldn't be surprised that if he wasn't traded, he ended up staying in Orlando. We all knew from the beginning he was not signing that extension, which is why it was a shock today, but financially, it was never in his best interest.

I will not be surprised if Martins doesn't trade him though.

Its amazing how the same event can be interpreted in such a variety of ways.

I've always thought Dwight has the right to make his own decision for what's best for him, but he should make his own decision.

I agree that trading him now doesn't make much sense to me because there's actually been signs that he isn't gone for sure. At this point I think its getting pretty late to get a trade that goes in our favor, so a panic move is the last thing you want to see.

How in the blue hell can you think he'd resign now? Trade demands, flip flops, secret meetings, shoes, all of this crap. Sad sad sad.

I bet you think strippers really like you huh?

Dwight doesnt want to be in orlando, and has proven it multiple times in the past 5 months, not sure how you dont see that

It will be interesting to see if this event ups the trade offers for Dwight or kills them. Not sure how to go about it. After my initial fury over this happening, I realized that this was supposed to happen all along.

WOW, so from what im hearing dwight wants to stay, but there are shades of grey... One being his agent and others trying to get him to budge outta orlando.

uhh not really much else to say here, nobody i know really knows whats going on.
I really wish i could give you guys good news, but nobodys knows at this point.


Sorry for the unwanted hype-guys...

I hope somewhere between now and tomorrow afternoon, Dwight will realize that Dan Fegan is destroying his image & fires this mofo and signs the paper ..
