LOL!!! if u think calling a cat on top of a moving turtle avatar "silly" was in direction to DJRajX. though i see y u would assume that. I only ever been warned by a Magic Mod. It's clear u guys are emo about Magics downfalls. I am a Dwight fan so i want whats best for him. Im jus not delusional enough to think it's better for both parties to trade Dwight. While Orl desperatley needs to blow up the team.

Why are you hating a cat riding a turtle? c'mon man lol... I don't know why you go on and on with your anti-magic posts... what's the point? this is an ORLANDO MAGIC forum... okay you're a vc and dwight fan...I get that...but no one on here is going to give you a positive reaction or response to anything you say, so why do it?... at the end of the day you're just trolling with magic hate.. it isn't even objective, it's just profoundly annoying... i'll just leave it at that... troll away

small samples of your work thus far:

Stan was asked about the Durant/Westbrook argument and jokingly said he thought it was very, very serious and they needed to break those two guys up immediately and get them as far apart as possible, bring one to Florida......Kevin Durant.

Just surprised me that he chose Durant over Westbrook, even though he was joking.

So I put that trade I proposed earlier into NBA 2k, and then traded Baby/Sefolosha for Ariza and then moved Dudu and Harper to the Cavs for Daniel Gibson and a 2nd. Leaving us with this line up:

Westbrook/Gibson
JRich/Redick/Wafer
Ariza/QRich/Earl
Gasol/Anderson/Collison
Perkins/Orton

We ended winning 54 games and won the championship. Ironically we played the Thunder in the Finals.
People like to say "Hey, you don't want to swim with sharks"

But I'm faster than sharks, so it's okay.

Like I said, only warned by Magic Mods. I am not a Magic hater, i dont think along those terms of basketball and sports. Im a player fan, no just VC, dwight, love, but from players from every team. I dont hate Magic as a franchise. I hate the organization and certain players. Ive said since the beginning, Magic will not win anything with a PG like Nelson. Otis dooms the team. I speak out. U get emo. I tell a harsh reality. Y do it? Bcuz im real like that. But more importantly this a discussion board.

When has the future of a team ever been objective?

I am not a Nets hater. I enjoyed watching the nets during the Vince & Kidd days. Like I said, Nets won't win anything with Deron and the team they have. Avery dooms that team and their new owner won't be nothing like the Devos. Nets could be the worst team in the league this year with their "Superstar". Worse than Cleveland and Minnesota with their "superstar". I am just being real like that. But, more importantly to this discussion board.

You are lucky the Mods here on the Magic board are lenient. If I posted this on the Nets board, I would be banned from RealGM. Just being real.

I enjoyed your dialogue, seriously. No hate for you from me. I can argue with anyone. But, I completely disagree.

Dwight and this Magic team is >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>Dwight and this Nets team. Fact.

Jameer would not get worked by Jeff Teague like Deron did. Deron is a great player, but no Superstar. Dwight is in for a big surprise if he goes to the Nets because there are no Garauntee's he will win anything with Deron, their coaches, players or ownership. Magic can always be a top 4 seed and could still contend for a Ship within 2-3 years garaunteed.

Otis doesn't have the balls or mindset to try and pull a trade with OKC. Dwight would be in the mix for championships for years and years to come. OKC will have the power to bring in another superstar if they wanted as well.

If Orlando wants a mix of veterans and young talent, Westbrook, Thabo and Perk would be a very good start, and a draft pick. They gotta take Hedo too.

Wow, we don't need to blame OTIS for EVERYTHING!


ANYWAY, to the topic, i don't think its a trade we do or should make. Westbrook is good, he's an all-star, but he's just the new Marbury, Steve Francis etc. I don't know if our roster has enough about it to keep his ego in check. if we could work out a deal where we keep Nelson OR Anderson then id do it:

Nelson+2012 unprotected 1st 2014 top 10 protected

Anderson/Duhon/Harper+picks (as above)


Westbrook is a very good, and don't get me wrong i would love to see him on our team but its a gamble. is it one we should take? MAYBE if the deals above are on the table we HAVE to take them (his value is low right now). If it isn't, the deal would HAVE to be:

Westbrook/Harden for Jameer/Anderson (picks as negotiated)

only way Harden is changed for role players is IF DWIGHT PUSHES FOR IT!

If OKC want to move Westbrook we might be able to get involved...

OKC: Jameer + Anderson
NJ: Westbrook
ORL: Deron

If Dwight pushes Deron to come join him in Orlando this could be just the deal to get it done for NJ.

Otherwise we bypass NJ and go straight for a Nelson/Anderson swap for Westbrook and filler.

IMO, the biggest concern is someone like the Suns swooping in and offering something like Nash for Westbrook. Gives the Thunder a better chance at competing in the short term, but it's a risk that Nash might leave or might not have long enough in him to justify giving up Westbrook.

I would rather have Westbrook than Williams.

Meer/Anderson/1st round pick for Westbrook.

Do it Otis.

Not if he is a determent to the team and please stop acting as if Anderson and Nelson are garbage.
