lol this thread has been back for only 2 hrs... we're already on page 10

Who wants to make Part 24 when this one reaches 100 pages? Might as well get that answered now and out of the way early.

Who wants to... Dalic? VGOSWAMI? Chosen? eyriq? Nemesis? etc

Yeah, so do I. It's so much easier than the hell we had to go through the entire season. Lol, I know I'm exaggerating a little bit, but I missed this thread.

#Magic CEO Martins told me on camera w @BHSN that #dwighthoward needs to sign long term extension or "necessary decisions will be made."

Believe me, I would love for Dwight to sign a long term contract with the Magic but no offense Orlando need to built a proper team around Howard before they go and threaten the guy. We just lost in the first round and his teammates have been shown to the world how bad they are, don't go make threats to someone simply because we hope that he'll cover up our mistakes.

I think Orlando need to be patient with Dwight and see how next season goes. Yes, we would love to have a deal on the table, I understand that, for longevity and stability sake, but he too need to be shown that Orlando truly want to win a championship and that he needs to get on board with this, maybe that's what will get him to sign that long term deal.

Hey, there you are. I don't know if you saw what I said earlier, but, do you wanna join my association? I haven't made it yet but I probably will on the weekend. Then I'll set the date when enough people join.

Tough because Ryan is a free agent. We'll be lucky to S&T him.

Reading between the lines here but I think Alex Martins wants Dwight to extend if he doesn't why fire SVG. If he does the faster he hires a coach. This off season is going to be exciting quick...

It wouldn't suprise me if Otis "stepped down" as GM and took some smaller role job to avoid the heat of getting canned.
