We said this like every games against the Hawks in last playoff.


Lol, we said that a lot last year, in general.

I thought he demanded a trade 2 weeks ago. Or do you mean, like trade me or I'm "injured" and won't play hard? Sort of looks like that now.

I'm just saying.... I hope that they realize just how bad this team is and bring in people around Dwight.

Ryan: 28 minutes - 22 points - eFG% .60 - 8 rebounds

Now sure Nelson played like garbage but one bad preseason game for a guy that shoots as well as Nelson does over his career isn't going to tank his value. So yeah, our 'garbage' is good enough to get an Ellis, Iggy, or Granger type player.



Sorry, I have to strongly disagree.

It is preseason, but this team just in general isn't very good. Other than Dwight, who played one of his worst games. If he keeps playing like that, we may have questions of him dogging it to get traded.

It is going to be a rough year. We won't be a bad team, but there will be frustrations plus the Dwight talk.

Dwight has always had the ability, but the mental part of the game always weakens him. This could be a terrible year for him if he lets the trade talk get the best of him.

Stan system is not working anymore... It's obvious he's not willing to change it, he needs to go.

So those teams w/out capspace won't get desperate knowing Dwight can't sign with them? The offers will only get better as the deadline approaches.

I just hope we're not in for a mind trip of a season where all the players, coaches, and FO guys tell us we're good but such and such is the reason things aren't working out and we just have to have patience and it'll work out. Meanwhile we're 10-25 heading into All-star weekend.

That is fine. Granger, Ellis, Iggy are fringe stars at best. They'll never be the best at their position in their conferences, let alone the league. Nelson is clearly a tier below but only one tier, and Anderson has all the potential in the world while JJ is as solid a rotation player as you'll find.

Ryan played well and played in Rhythm....JJ played well and made tough shots....Before Hedo got hurt he was at least pushing the ball and making passes...J-Rich played Ok....Those are the only guys that gave a sh t tonight.....I'll feel better about this loss tomorrow but tonight i'm pissed because for like 2 quarters we played them close and then we sh t the bed....I guess at this point i have to hope our guys have career years in 3pt shooting being that is all we're going to be doing all season

I want to see if Dwight will ever attempt a turnaround jumpshot again after getting blocked by Bosh on his first attempt.

Wow! People are starting to finally wake up and see that Stan's college offense is the reason we suck. :D

It only took this board five years to see what I've been telling you since game 5 of the Stan Van Gundy era.Hopefully management wakes up and sees it too. Would bringing in Brian Shaw affect our season from here on out?

This is preseason. Why are people talking about a preseason game. Really.

Who's system would work when Jameer Nelson is getting balled on by Dleaguers and Dwight Howard is getting outplayed by PIttman?? Jameer 0-10 Dwight 2-9.... 2-19 for our "captains"

Not only that but for Dwight to make maximum money after January 1st he would need to sign an extension after being traded, so the team we trade him too would have half of this year and all of next season with Dwight, and then of course the 5 year extension at maximum dollars. Really that is the optimum value for a team obtaining Dwight which means the Magic should get an even better return.
