Can someone explain to me Why Jrich? and Why Turk? Jrich i just don't know anything about is he playing well? what type of player is he? Turk on the other hand is clearly someone that i don't want back here.....Dude is a shell of himself and is not the player he used to be...all of a sudden he's suppose to find a fountain of youth back in Orlando?

@stevekylerNBA RT Vince+Gortat for Hedo or Arenas? --- Rashard for Gil, Vince and Gortat for J Rich and Hedo, Anderson possible


@stevekylerNBA RT @JarethOMMB: @stevekylerNBA Likelihood or a deal being done before Monday? %? -- with Otis? who knows, everyone saying could drop today.

Dwight Howard according to sources vented pretty aggressively at both Stan Van Gundy and Otis Smith, urging change.


Maybe Dwight shoulda vented more about changing the gameplan to get him the ball more than player changes.

Major player changes to this team is gonna eff us up.

You can't trade for 2 starters from 2 separate teams along w/ the role changes of players we've got now and expect things to go well.


Things could be well by playoff time. I think the main reason he's looking at Turk is to get some chemistry back. I think if we make a couple of trades, it's better to do it now than the deadline.

he's held conversations with Washington on acquiring Gilbert Arenas.

RT @ESPN1040JoshD: Would the Magic be getting back anyone to back up Dwight in these moves? -- no would be counting on Brandon Bass mainly

Makes no sense.

I'm stoked at the moment. There's no telling how much change is coming. I'm sorry, but it's obvious this team needs a shake up. I think it would really boost our guys. (the ones we keep) hopefully neither shard or vince.

Hope all this is a smoke screen and Otis can miraculously get Melo in a magic uni. IMO hes the only one that can put us over the top that is available

Please Otis, take Hedo back. Suns will gift wrap him and Sarver would even pay for his plane ticket! (Well, not really)
