THIS


CP3 made a ridiculous Hornets team playoff material and took the lakers to the brink.... Deron just whines and complains when his team is losing. He's a quicker Jameer. I went to the Nets game and he looked lke SH**.... WHY doesn Dwight wanna jump ship for him so badly? Name recognition?


When Deron did look good in Utah, they had a helluva team and a Hall of Fame coach reknown for double digit assists from his PG's, even Arroyo looked good there.


Deron is playing in a pretty bad team and he is trying to do way too much which leads to turn overs and missed shots. If he was playing in Orlando with Dwight, Ryno and JJ, he would do so much better.

That being said, I wish Rondo could be in this team. Magic would be a very strong contender imo.

Is it safe to say without Redick and Anderson, we'd be gutter swine right now? Do we trade 'em while they're hot, or keep 'em and ride it out, dirty bird style? I like this team... I can hear it now.

I'd give it to JJ. Made big defensive plays down the stretch as well as offensive. Hedo close with his 4th quarter performance.

When Jerry Sloan stepped down after the confrontation with Deron, I was seriously pissed off at Deron because I had long admired Sloans ability to have 50 win seasons for so long.

No. He had his best as a 'facilitator'.


his assist numbers for the year were the same. how was that his best year? his best assist year was last year, which Hedo was here for most of it.

Orlando already is a strong contender. With Rondo or Deron we become one of the favorites, up there with the Thunder, Heat, Mavs, Celtics, Lakers, and Bulls.

Those were the two guys we were hoping to have breakout seasons, which they're are. I don't think we should trade either one.

Their exact words just now:

"Jose with DA DAGGA!!!" ... early 3rd quarter... got me so mad

Glad we kicked their *** at the end of the game...

4th quarter comes around and we started getting some calls going our way for once, and they b*tched... the first 3 quarters it was 8 on 5 for the Raptors, so idk what they are complaining about... homer commentary, what do you expect... annoying as crap though to hear



Calm down buddy... Just so you know, they always say dagger after a 3.... To be fair, both teams got their fair share of bad calls... You seem a little too heated for a game against a lottery team... Anyway, good comeback from your team....Till next time!

Williams is just another whiny little player who thinks he is better than what he really is. The way he is playing now, I would be reluctant to give him a MLE contract. He has sucked.

Could he be great with Orlando's team? Sure, but we wouldn't be able to get him with out giving up our 20/7 a game PF, Redick, Nelson, Hedo, JRich, so on and so forth. It would be him and Howard and nothing else.

I hope I'm not the only one who thinks a team wins a title, not 2 star players? And Williams isn't our answer. If we have to give up our whole team to get some one, they better be a Paul or Durant or Lebron. Williams isn't even in the same league as those players.

if you asked me who I thought would lead the Magic in scoring 1sr 5 games, I would have shot myself in the face before I said Ryno and or JJ.

Which has to be adjusted for MPG.

look guys, I don't think we need another ST to win. With saying that I do believe it has to be a better PG to run our offense. More like a floor general that can make shots if not able to find someone.

Yeah, sue me because I'm passionate and hyped up about my team playing well and winning EVERY game, no matter who we are facing :roll:... also sue me because I don't like listening to your TEAM'S commentators obviously ... get a grip... good game, bye bye now

I almost forgot. MAJOR Props to the Raptors for a great game. They were gritty and played great Defense. Had stretches where they couldn't miss. Played with an aggressiveness that I wish the Magic had. Good game, Raptors.

I would have even said this if they won too.

I have to agree. Under a hypothetical situation, I don't think I'd be willing to part with Anderson, Redick, Nelson and one of either Hedo or J-Rich. He's definitely not worth the production we'd be losing by gutting our team to acquire him.

Paul on the other hand...

Okay, well you can't deny the fact that Deron DOES have the talent that the Magic need.

This is a perfect situation for him to *REVIVE*, (which I use loosely) his career.

Again, like someone said. He's one of the few competent player on the Nets roster currently. He's having trouble dealing with all the attention he's getting. He's never dealt with that before in his NBA career.
