I feel as if Nelson has more loyalty than Dwight at this point...

I don't understand why these NBA players have a grudge about owners trading them to teams of there choice? This is the business THEY chose to work for, they don't OWN the business they have no say in where they want to go. They are earning more money than majority of us will ever see and they complain because they get traded to a city they don't "like". Tough luck, who signed the contract? You go where ever your boss sends you.

Look how CLee is acting, and Meer has known Dwight much longer. Just sayin'. He doesn't look bothered in the least that Dwight is leaving.

whatever happens, happens, im a magic fan through thick and thin, its happened to us before, and it will happen to us again, if you don't want this city dwight, fine, we will go on without you, your not bigger than the city, we deserve better than how the situation is unfolding, we shouldn't be treated like this, be a man, shows some respect .....
The Orlando magic will get backup like we always do, and eventually we will win it all...

He just did his usual response of "I dont wanna talk about that!". Genius, Dwight. Maybe that's what he did with the FO too -

Dwight: "I want some changes, I want other people brought in!" .
FO: "OK Dwight, who do you want?"
Dwight: "I'm not gonna telllllllllll youuuuuuuuuuuuu"

Gimme a break.

I also like the "nobody will ever understand what we have to go through as players, it's tough"....blah blah blah. You get to play a GAME for a living, that people LOVE to play, that everybody WISHED they could play at that level, AND get paid $100s of millions to do it....and get everything handed on a platter to you, have a bunch of suckup adoring fans/employees. And every now and then you have to have somebody call you out on Twitter or get asked some questions by the media? Oh BOO HOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO. How awful of a life...


f'n amen lol

I'd do that deal. You get a starting frontcourt and a good defender and scorer in metta world peace or whatever he's calling himself this week if he keeps his head on straight. And you can flip one or more of those guys.

I think it depends on the trade. If we do the LA trade and get Artest/Gasol/Bynum then Jameer might stay because that is a patchwork pretty good team. If we go full rebuild, then Orlando is as likely to move Jameer as Jameer is to bail on us.

I just threw it out there because i don't "trust" any of them and this issue runs deep apparently with the players. If Dwight will have this influence in with his owner that he supposedly doesn't have here, then he could say to them to save a spot for Nelson. Maybe not, but that sheds a little light into the possible reason why CP3 here never happened. He is besties with Bron/Melo/Wade/Kobe and the are all with the same agency. That agency could have an agenda to get their players in certain markets for certain incentives. If Orlando is not one of those markets, then they won't be coming. This is MY personal theory.
