Official Speculation Thread (Pt XIX: Trade Deadline cont.)

[MitchellUK]

Is it bad that I still don't?

You might not remember, but about a year ago, our first preseason game was against the MIA Heat (this was right after they formed their trio). Remember it was in Tampa, and it got cancelled because the floor was slippery due to their being ice under it or something?

Well, n the story, the reporter did a piece on good ol Christian Leibert, who was literally crying because the game wouldn't happen.

See Christian had been a Magic fan his entire life......all the way up until Lebron came to the Heat. He then immediately switched over to them, bought Wade jerseys and everything. He had become a running joke on this forum for a while.

Little douche.

WTF I DON'T KNOW WHAT TO BELIEVE. Ken Berger reporting it as well...

Good God, I came to grips last night that we'll be trading Dwight, now this... If that is true I'm gonna be doing some heavy alcohol lifting tonight, again... Good thing that my city has the highest number of bars in Brazil.

Sources confirm: Lakers, Wolves and Blazers discussing three-team deal. Michael Beasley to LA, Jamal Crawford to MIN, Steve Blake to POR.

he admitted to being a die hard magic fan, then jumping on the heat bandwagon and is now a heat fan for life, or for a few years

.@sam_amick makes the key point that Magic have yet to receive the paperwork making that commitment official.

@MaikLitoris he's been right on with previous magic matters and was in one of the meetings

Am I the only one sophomoric enough to laugh out loud at this?
