the more i think about it the more i like this.

rondo/meer/ish
jrich/jj/waver
qrich/clark/liggins
ryno/bbd/harper
garnett/bbd/stiemsma or some rotation of these guys

i hate the celtics like any magic fan should, and i hate rondo even more. a buddy of mine is a huge kentucky fan and always talks about rondo, and i'm always telling him how much i hate rondo. but if we were able to do this deal that's way better than anything else i've heard about. and screw girly feelings or i don't want to trade with them blah blah. if this deal is available, its good. you do whats right for the team not your stupid pride.

Rondo is a great player to build forward with. Not a franchise guy, but still, I'd do it. He's the best named player of any legit Dwight rumors.

I'd say keep Jameer as a back-up PG... good 6th man role... Jameer already doesn't play no more than 28mpg... and he's going to be 31 years old by next season. Dwight/Hedo/Duhon for Rondo/Garnett is better since you get rid of two bad contracts in Hedo and Duhon. Nelson will opt-in this season for the final year of his deal... then by the 2013 off-season his salary comes off the books.


Not sure Jameer captain and PG starter would like that, but yea I agree. I'd hope Jameer would get used to 6th man and start to dominate more often, since he'd be on fewer minutes and against opposing benches.

I Did NOT write this... This is NOT my Grammar... but it kind of makes sense!

they are going to trade dwight to the celtics.. garnett draft picks and maybe rondo.. garnett contract ends this year.. that free up cap space for orlando(which we having had since lewis was sign year back) and celtics can try to keep dwight there with paul pierce as a saling point. or its paul n garnet, draft picks for dwight. and rando is the saling point for howard to stay there. either way orlando would get a star (young or old) and clear 20 something million for the future with garnetts contract.

looks like the Boston/Dwight "blog" comment was a comment from a Boston fan named "dewayne" at the link/article I posted I page 69.

http://hangtime.blogs.nba.com/2012/03/0 ... -a-dwight/

yeah, no credibility there. it's not even his blog... it was a fan comment on an nba.com blog... and stupid one at that. :nonono:


DJRajX wrote:we're not getting Rondo... the whole rumor is a dud... it's not even legit... it was just a feedback comment from a clown Boston fan to some nba.com blog article... it wasn't even a legit standalone blog from the guy who made that comment... read my last post ^^^^^

move along folks, nothing to see here :lol:

I saw him as a poor mans Kevin Love months ago... a stretch 4 that rebounds... I thought that was reasonable...then someone got mad at me and called him the next Dirk... then I laughed spitting my delicious lunch everywhere and possibly shooting some out of my nose. I can't remember...because I was laughing so hard.

yeah i just requoted it so people could see what i was talking about with my additional comments. that trade is the best one i've heard. i know its just some rumor, but i don't understand why you're making crazy smiley. and I hate kevin garnett HATE him. and hate rondo. and hate the celtics. but i'd do this trade easy.

we get rid of all our total garbage. get back a franchise point. keep everyone of our "non" assets. garnet t, vet min or let him walk or whatever. comes off the books. everyone is moveable for picks and stuff (not borderline allstars like we're going after now) and get to work rebuilding and making moves

His Spanish contract expires this summer. So he would be able to suit up for summer league and training camp in the 2012-2013 season.

I just have this sinking feeling, I have no info or proof but just a gut wrenching suspicion that Dwight does not come back to Orlando from Chicago. I hope to god I am wrong.
