Its Wikipideia so I take it with a grain of salt but:

Double-triple-double[26] (at least 20 of any 3 statistics): Wilt Chamberlain is the only player to have accomplished this; in a February 2, 1968 game vs. Detroit Pistons, Chamberlain tallied 22 points, 25 rebounds, and 21 assists.[27]

that would be the trade for a Howard rental, but Orlando isn't doing that.

Made it pretty clear they fill they're a good center away from a playoff run with the core currently there. They want one without giving up much - which isn't happening either

At this point I'd just be fine with any major deal really.. for some reason I just get the feeling that Otis isn't planning on doing crap until a few days before the deadline... when he'll simply just shuffle some bench warmers around...

Why do the Magic realistically think they can land anyone of substance to help Howard?

Yea and no one has ever even come close to to it....until today, that is.

Meanwhile the guy we took 10 spots ahead of Rondo; undersized, alligator armed, Caucasian shooting guard J.J Redick is still working on his 17th career rebound I'm pretty sure.

What do Dubs fans think of David Lee's contract out of curiosity...I mean when you look at his stat line you think he's worth the money, but he obviously isn't helping them win. Do Warriors fans consider him a bad contract?

Magic had 24, 17 and 17 in 1989. That's pretty close.

Opinions vary. He's having a good year and management loves him. He may be a bad deal down the line, but he's fine at the moment.

either would be miracle. Otis will probably just trade Dwight.

At this point, I'd be happy if we make ANY move at all ..

i would love to make a play for gerald wallace. his contract would expire along with turks and nelsons. i say give up a 1st round pick and get rid of 1 of our long contracts (baby,jrich,Q,duhon). Then sell dwight on the idea of getting some major free agents here when turk/nelson/wallace/duhon/q/jj all expire.

wallace can start at sf and bring in turk to play big minutes with the bench unit. he can also slide to pf and take andersons backup minutes and give us excellent defense. makes our roster very flexible.

davis+Q+1st for wallace

11 days left til the deadline. Do you guys really think Orlando is going to take their chances with Dwight and allow him to walk for nothing?

depends what 7 team trade king comes up with. Its established they don't want the Bynum Dwight swap. Feels like devos would be fine saving money by losing Dwight in fa than offers out now. That way Dwight is the only guy hurt by pr .you'll hear stories about dwights ego by woj

Unfortunately, yes.

This team is in the cap abyss, a full rebuild is needed. Thanks Otis.

This is why Dwight needs to be traded, along with a bad contract or two, if we feel like he's gone anyways.

Bynum looks like he can barely jump.
