Needed a pick me up, so i went to youtube to watch highlights of our only nba finals win.
Mannn, I so badly want another shot at the finals. Please be this year!!!!

Also, im starting to get annoyed with meers play. I would love to have nash on this team. Sure he isn't a great defender, but meer is just as bad. At least you get consistency and ball handling on offense. Something we don't get from Nelson.

I know this isn't trade deadline material, but it's better than pressing f5 and not seeing a trade be made.

Just got home from work, yet no noise on the Magic front. A loss to the Kings, a few DNP's, but nothing out of the ordinary (well, no Earl) but am getting the hunch tmrw will be seemingly quiet for Otis & Company on the trade front.

Ken Berger, c'mon fetch me some good news :) I like the idea of Troy Murphy, especially if we don't have to give up anyone or anything. I just can't envision Q and Duhon in our future plans. I mean, I know they're not eye-popping assets, but I can bet you anything Otis is trying for something out there to shore up our frontcourt or upgrade our backcourt in a variation of ways while trying to include Q or Duhon (w/one of our young assets).

I'd love to just wake up to us aquiring Iggy & Battie. Josh Robbins re-affirmed that their was no substance to the "Z-Bo to Orlando" deal, but I beg to differ. There's been quite a few news outlets from a few places linking Z-Bo & Orlando, so Zach Randolph has been on Otis' radar. To what capacity, I have no clue other than (J-Rich & Bass for Z-Bo) that was reported.

Oh I don't want either on the magic. I just don't understand the trade. Baron has been playing great with Blake. Why trade him? And why trade him for Mo Williams of all people.

"If guys don't want to play, they need to sit down. We can't just have guys or anybody out there not playing hard." - Dwight Howard after the loss to the Kings.

The Magic acquired Gil, J-Rich and others after the similar words in December.

I'd do the trade IF the Magic can unload bad contracts of Gil, Duhon... OR can get real All-Star player.

Good move for the Clippers, they get Mo Williams and probably a draft pick/throw-in player as well

Poor Baron. Plays for one of the most exciting teams in the NBA. Featured in all the Blake highlights. Even get's to throw him the pass from the Kia.

Now he gets traded. To Cleveland...

EDIT:

Just realized the Clippers were trying to get rid of his contract. WHY CAN'T WE DO THIS WITH ARENAS.

AlexKennedyNBA Mike Bibby is unhappy with Wednesday's trade. A buyout has yet to be discussed and will be difficult to complete.

Clipps arent making the playoffs, thats a Lotto Pick right there.
A smart coach once said, "Potential just means you're not good enough yet." Playing on potential is like living on air: It's essential, but if thats all you have, you're eventually going to starve.

Poor Barron... it seemed like he was just starting to feel his way back into things playing with Blake. Wonder how Blake feels about it.

Question. At 3 tomorrow, is that the deadline for trades or to sign FA's as well?
