Why? It's worth more now than what it would have been if we traded him to the Nets in the beginning of the season.


That is what he is saying.


I guess I have to put statements like that in green font!

So he can speculate and tell us crap that we already know from his "Sources?"

Maybe GS will realize they have no shot at Dwight if we're talking a trade to the Nets... then they may be open to the previously rumored trade.

I've never heard this before. Who are all the people who have reported it?


Don't have time to research it right now, but it may have been tweets mostly after a report earlier in the season (maybe right after Dwight's trade request).

I've suspected this since the beginning of the season and have suspected by the deadline.

May The Magic get the best deal they can.

what we fail to realize is that dwight made him mind up prob over a year ago, he will be in a nets jersey very soon, he has one foot out the door and we are lucky he hasnt led us to believe he is going to stay with orlando, atleast we can trade him to the nets and get primarily their 1st round pick to jumpstart this rebuilding process,. Dont forget guys that this draft has talent!!!

pull the trigger get rid of howard, pull in monta play out the year and go into the draft with a high pick.

To me.. we will still be the same team.. if not better.. At least Bynum won't have a ball hog (Kobe) AND he can make Free Throws.

I am 100% all for this!

So far,
Monta thought it was a done deal. He's upset, plans on leaving the following year.

Golden State ALL DAY

I do remember him saying that... I still hate Otis (and he should be fired)... but again, at the end of the day... we're Magic fans... Magic > Dwight ... if Dwight wants to leave, then we just have to pick ourselves up from this mess and move on... Magic basketball will go on w/o Dwight.

Agreed! Let's do this, F a Brook Lopez!!! Send this bum pop star out west and give us some new blood!
