Mark Price has not been fired by Magic and will be the Magic Summer League coach. - Ping

I bet Price hopes Dwight gets traded so they stop putting the camera on his face every time Dwight shoots FTs in nationally televised games.

Ahhhhhh Nice.

I just don't get these mock drafts, why would we draft a PF with Marshall still on the board ?

Not sure why they all have us taking this Nicholson kid. . . I don't want him. He seems like another stretch 4.

I'm done with that. I hope the Magic are too.

[ThatFloridaDude]

I think this

Orlando Magic ‏@Orlando_Magic
GM Rob Hennigan: We are looking for players who love basketball and are committed to building something greater than themselves.

speaks to this

John Denton ‏@JohnDenton555
New #Magic GM Rob Hennigan said he wants Jameer Nelson in an Orlando uniform next season. Jameer has to make opt-out decision by Friday.

possibly

Josh Robbins ‏@JoshuaBRobbins
Hennigan re: Jameer: "We hope that he decides to stay in Orlando, and we hope he is wearing a Magic uniform next season.”

or simply

Tony Mejia ‏@TonyMejiaNBA
Based on reports from Hennigan's media briefing, Ft Knox in place. #Magic wanting Jameer back no shock since expiring deal would be an asset

When was this?

[WeRockMagic]

Orlando Magic ‏@Orlando_Magic

That is saying something right there

He met with the press at 1pm to answer questions about draft/Dwight/and other Magic players. Last about 30 mins and a few of the invitees tweeted out some of his comments.

because hes a bad defender and cant do anything but pass

Because the passing ability of the players on our roster is amazing

I think offensively he's more like Bass, but bigger, probably could turn out to be a better rebounder and defender too. He's who i think were going to take even if Marshall is still on the board.

[Blue_and_Whte]

BBD is going to be at the Magic draft party at Friendly Confines. How crazy would it be if he was there and got traded on draft night..

Do we know which one

I'll be fine if we end up picking him, and, I'll cheer for him and hope he gets better. But, I'd rather go with a PG, SG, SF, we have to fix those problems in those positions.

Ohh thanks. DO you know if they aired it or are their any leaks? I don't have a tweeter.

I love that show. I watched it about 6 months ago, just finished my second watch through about a week ago and am starting my third watch today. This show is too awesome to not watch. This show is so awesome, that if Chris Duhon announced that it was his favorite show, he will no longer be hated.

no stream but anything of substance was tweeted and posted in this thread (read back 2-3 pages). There will be a couple articles that come out about it. When they're available, I'm sure it'll get posted in the thread; just keep your eye out.

i don't think we're just going to stick to 19 and 49....i think we get another pick somehow....but to be truthful i have no idea what we're doing? a lot of ways we can go......

I read back. Still no important information yet. Ahh. Guess I'll just save myself the trouble and wait for tomorrow. This guy is literally driving me crazy with his patience, but I admire it. I just can't stand to not know what is going to happen!!!
