Team chemistry is at an all-time high right now. I'm not even mad. Jameer is ballin, JJ and Ryan are doing well, Dwight's all in. If we make a move, it should be minor, at the SF spot.

Yeah, run over, act all excited, and say "OMG, Dwight just flipped out. After signing the contract, he falcon-punched Rich DeVos right out of his wheelchair, suplexed Otis through the boardroom table, then stood over him and in his best Vince McMahon impression growled "You're.....FIRED!". Otis lay motionless, barely conscious, mumbling "I like this team, I like this team...""

hahahahahahahaha

Billy King owes the Magic an apology and maybe we wont file tampering charges...

More likely it's Prokhorov that owes the apology. The guy has probably been playing golf with Fegan every week.

Well, we need at least two changes - back up PG and back up big. No need to tamper with the rest of the squad yet. I'd use JRich/Duhon/BBD in a trade.

J-Rich needs to kick rocks.....Too inconsistent and virtually brings nothing to the table that Redick can't emulate

he'll be under contract through the 2012-2013 season, after which he becomes an unrestricted free agent.
He could sign an extension of up to two additional years today for max dollars if he so chose. After July 1 (I think) he can sign up to a three year of extension for max dollars (which would have him under contract through 2016).

If Dwight opts-in, it changes the whole game. The Magic have to be wise about their spending in building around Dwight. They have opportunity to clear a lot of cap space.
