Who's excited for rebuilding?!?!?

I actually kind of am. Bring on the second coming of the heart and hustle team!

Is there anyway we could work out a trade with LA for Gasol and Bynum

Then flip Gasol for Rondo?
Just curious. I expect the answer to be a no but just wondering if there are any openings to this.

Rondo + Bynum is a nice core (if healthy***)

I think we have the best owner in the NBA.

I just hope he gives the OK to do what's best for the team. Pleaes don't let youre close relationship with D12 give you false hope. This is a business, if he doesnt commit to this team, that's all the indication you need to know.

Take it with a grain of salt, it's Ping.

Give me either (leaning towards #1). At this point. I'm not willing to lose Dwight for nothing.

Can we trade for Ping for anyone on the planet that's not Ping?

Listen rebuilding sucks but its time. Regardless of what happens I am a Magic fan thru thick and thin. I was here when we lost 19 games in a row. I will still be a Magic fan when Dwight is sent packing.

Lakers wouldnt trade Bynum + Gasol for D12.

As for being ready for rebuild, i have no problem with this. This type of thing happens every year with my soccer team in Brazil, so whatever.

Will we change our jerseys when Dwight leaves?

I WANT THE PAJAMA JERSEYS BACK DAMMIT.

I remember that Phoenix game where we snapped the streak... everything clicked... that long three by Shammond Williams was epic... Suns fired their head coach immediately afterward :lol:

Nets deal is better unless LA offers Gasol.

I will cry if Brook Lopez is on my team, I immediately hated him when I first heard him talk.

Only jersey I own... JJ!

Agreed, the picks are most valuable IMO

I'd rather him go to the Nets. It is well known the Nets are cursed and they will never win a championship.

If it is too New Jersey, it will be really tough Friday night but I do feel and have felt for a while a deal will come by Thursday.

Cammo: It sucks to lose a player and see all these star players team up and go elsewhere. It really sucks!

However, I am going to love The Orlando Magic until the day I die. I'm no bandwagon fan and the ones who are will go away now.

I am not going to let what Dwight Howard wants or the lack of a "Franchise Player Tag" in The NBA make me decide I am no longer a fan of The Magic.

I survived Shaq leaving and wll survive Dwight leaving.

Random question. Do you get change your poster name since you're the Main Mod?

Im assuming you can because you joined in 2001 and you're called Howard Mass. Unless you knew Dwight was going to be a Magic 3 years before it happened. lol
