He's just telling people to settle downa bit first. He said he'll give everyone more info later on


No, he told people that DeVos and Hennigan were flying to LA to sit with Dwight and is now backtracking because his info may not be right.

Also, a TBN member tweeted Rudolph about it, which Rudolph denied and YBR told said poster to "Chill on letting stuff like this out like that"

Cant Jameer be traded to Dallas before he makes a decision on his PO? The 17th would be nice because thats where most Mocks have Marshall as his floor. I would rather have him than jameer I believe at this point.

YBR

That's how I feel, they're not trading Dwight this week. They'll meet with each other at some point to share each others visions but right now Hennigan is focusing on the draft.

WELL THAT WAS A LETDOWN

He has a history of reporting alot of stuff before they happen.

No he doesn't. He supposedly talks to Dwight via text a lot and he "proved" it by showing a twitter conversation or something. He hasn't actually reported anything. Not trying to say he is a liar, but people take him too seriously. Especially since he likes to make it sound like Dwight will end up staying. If he kept saying he thinks Dwight will leave, people won't take it seriously like everyone else who says he wants to leave.

An Ellis trade never happened, I don't see how him posting a rumor is somehow making him credible.

Rudolph first reported the waiving the ETO thing because Dwight called him and told him personally.

YBR:

I don't think he knows much about this message board, and me and him just talk one on one, he doesn't know about the stuff I've posted on forums. He's not using me to spread information. Remember I was not suppose to mention anything about that Monta deal. I'm taking a risk posting stuff on here

Haven't I read just yesterday that YBR was sure Dwight was going to leave? Bullcrap.

Prorl is right. You people believe everything you read and don't learn your lessons.

It's humorous, because the moment something is reported people take it and run with and make 50 different conclusions up on what it all means and what will happen afterwards, then weeks and months later the rumour is talked about as if it's fact when it could have been 100% BS from the start.

Happens all the time now that twitter exists. There was a lot of this all throughout last season with the Dwight situation.

I for one am enjoying the drama. whats the alternative, staring at the same old 1000 page. YRB, or YBR, or RBY you sure have my attention, keep talking.

I have no clue who this YBR guy is (nor do I care at this time), but I wouldn't believe anyone at this point except for a small group of credible Magic media.

Whatever happens in this draft, I'm assuming that Rob is operating under the belief that he doesn't have Dwight at his availability right now. One way or another we need help at every single position except PF. Just because Redick gets waived, Jameer leaves, Ryno gets traded, J-Rich or Hedo get traded, etc. doesn't necessarily mean that it's in response to a decision Dwight has made. Hopefully Howard has made up his mind. I don't think he has, but I hope he proves me wrong and sacks up one way or another. This is our future at stake.

That Jameer-Dallas 'rumor' actually isn't that bad. Jameer agrees to play out the final year of his deal, we trade him to the Mavs (who need a more than decent point guard and would love the disappearing salary come 2013), we pick Kendall Marshall at #17 and go either big man or wing scorer at #19. I can see Cuban doing that. Plus, Nelson gets to be on a competitive franchise.
