I hear the Clippers are looking for a 2 guard maybe they take Jrich off our hands


JRich for Foye or Mo Will. One can only dream.

I don't know who they would exactly send back to us (I can think of a couple guys as upgrades) for J-Rich, but unfortunately I think the Clippers are more intrigued with acquiring Jamal Crawford instead.

I was hoping for J-Rich-Mo Williams swap early in the season, but I think Billups injury ruined it.

So basically, a trade revolving around Monta, Klay, Udoh and two firsts for Dwight who has expressed every intent to leave Orlando in Free agency, wouldn't be enough to trade him prior to the deadline???

Well you guys will not be trading Dwight Howard then because that would be more than almost anyone would offer him in this effed up situation. That is very comparable to what the Knicks gave up for Anthony... Even me as a Warrior fan would be against making this trade especially for an non-extended Dwight. But, it's all a moot point anyway as the Warriors don't have any picks to deal... But it kind of shows where your minds are at and that is being content with possibly getting nothing and losing Dwight at the same time...


Has nothing to do with You or the Warriors organization. Dwight won't want to play there. Won't ever happen. Even if it is Ellis for Dwight straight up, the Magic with Dwight are better than Warriors with Dwight (sans Ellis). He won't root up his home and city for that.

you don't get it. If Dwight leaves, we are screwed either way. No matter who we get in return, it is not gonna be enough to top Miami or Chicago without Dwight. Orlando plays for NBA finals, anything else is disappointment.

Jon Barry just picked SVG as his coach of the year thus far. Impressed he said something nice about the Magic. He still sucks (edit: Jon Barry, not Stan), but I think Stan deserves some credit for keeping this ship afloat.

At that time people were mocking and making fun of those that suggested we trade for Mo-Will... considering our PG play has been (for the most part) inconsistent, it still might be an option for us now... even with the Billups injury. It wouldn't surprise me to see the Clippers make a move for another back-court player (upgrade, possibly with a 3rd team involved) in order get the proper depth for the playoffs at those positions. They are built off of guard play and PNRs with Blake and Jordan.

I also wouldn't mind a trade for Ramon Sessions... but that's starting to look less and less likely as well :( ... he's another guy I wouldn't mind having on our team.

Magic have had a great season with all these players supposedly nobody wants. Stan does much with this team plus the nice bench play. Especially, considering that bench involves Duhon and BBD.

Nice. Yeah, that's not a bad pick by any mean. SVG has dealt with a lot this season, trying to keep this group together amidst all the trade request talks. I can think of a few more coaches who are obviously ahead of him in the actual voting for Coach of the Year. But SVG is a very solid pick, and there are good reasons for him to be COTY.

I agree Stan has always been a good coach while a lot of us fans have been angered by some of his decisions such as the infamous Jameer Return to the Finals I still think he has done a good a job as anybody for this team. I think he has put this team in as good a position a coach can given our current situation.

If we have to trade Howard...I want DeAndre Jordon, Mo Williams/Foye or Bledsoe and picks. Also I will be willing to throw in JRich for good measure :)

That's the best trade package out there since teams want to low ball us, lead by the Nets. I still can't believe they offered us Okur/Farmer and a pick for Howard (Even Kwame Brown is worth more than that) :lol:
