That is what I heard. Wish I coulda been there. I haven't gotten many free tickets this year. But, I am buying playoff tickets for the whole playoffs in advance through our companies rep. I am getting about Center Court 1st row upper bowl. Because, they are cheaper and nobody sits in front of me as I can lean on the railings with a nice view of the court. I had them last year and can get them again. I may only buy 2 because I intend to take 5-6 different people one to each game to share the experience. I associate with people that have money, but my good friends are all broke. I am ready and put aside over $4k for the expenses.

ESPN isn't giving this story as much play as Bucher's "Dwight determines fate of..." or "Dwight Good as Gone" has gotten in the past week.

Until it's in writing, we can't be so cocky...

Meanwhile, Bucher's co-worker reported the exact opposite. LOLOLOL

I'm not shocked. He was saying some pretty anti Magic things on Sports Nation

True. I don't feel confident about this until it's officially confirmed by the Magic or Dwight himself.

Just told Deron Williams situation in New Jersey not connected to Dwight Howard... they are not sold DWill will leave - tough decision

I love how the narrative has completely changed.

I can't believe any of this. It doesn't take hours to sign a few pieces of papers. The reports are that Dwight HAS the papers. What's taking so long to get official confirmation?

A look at the summer of 2013:

Howard - we won't renounce him so he will count about 19 million towards our cap
Anderson - Thinking we will resign him probably to a contract starting at 9 million a year
JRich - 6 million
Davis - 6 million
Hedo - only counts 6 million
QRich and Duhon are combined 7 million, if QRich doesn't opt out

Combined salary is 53 million.

I think we also resign Redick to a near identical deal of about 6 million a year and we also bring back Nelson for about 4 million a year.

So all in all our goal should be to have Hedo, Redick, Nelson, Howard and Anderson on our books for a total of 44 million. Every one else needs to be moved one way or another. That would leave us with about 16 million or more to spend in the summer of 2013, basically giving us a max player (thinking the Magic target Paul and Ellis before any one else, unless Williams is available too).

Eh they do play a game in 2 hours. I guess there's shootaround and team meetings.
