This is BS... Dwight gave us one team to trade with in BKN, now he's supposedly giving us one team in LA. If they don't have what we want WTF would we deal with them!

Sad part is I agree. We keep Dwight and compete one more season to try and win and then we let him walk and suck enough to get a high draft pick the year after.

This guy is pathetic he is bascially defending Dwight i wonder if Dwight is paying him to be a PR guy lol and the simple fact that we wont do a Houston Deal because we would have to wait another week might be the worst thing i have ever heard Hennigan has proved he has nothing but time to wait for the best deal he isnt gonna accept a **** poor trade with Cleveland for Anderson Varejo to be the best player coming to us with Miami and a Cleveland late round pick with bynum and irving. Could this guy be any less obvious in his agenda of trying to push off the Houston Rockets

Who gives a flying **** if Dwight will sign an extension with LA?

If we're getting a **** deal, then hell yes I expect the Magic not to pull the trigger. That doesn't mean the Magic don't want to trade Dwight, to make him look bad.

He's acting like the cavs and nets deal are good. SMH

Why's Rudolph acting like the Magic should just take whatever deal is out there?

Varejao and picks? That's not exactly a deal that you gotta take.

Bynum? There's a lot of reasons to shy away from committing to him.

The Rockets? If their offer is 1st round pick, a player, and taking a bad contract? I'll walk away from that too.

Since when is it a bad thing to wait and see if there's a better deal out there, or wait til trade partners up their offers... Jeez.

So the Rockets deal is similar to the Nets deal and the Cavs deal is better? And the Magic have to trade him?

I don't get the hate on Rudolph, dude is basically Dwight's mouthpiece. We can learn where his head is right now.

This.

I usually don't knock Rudolph, but he's clearly missing a huge part of this and he's just making completely irrational statements.

Dwight Howard, who is under contract for 1 more year, with the Orlando Magic, has requested a trade. Fine. Now, his employer will do what's best for itself because that is within the parameters of the contract. Dwight can do what's best for him in 2013 as a free agent. Until then, the Orlando Magic hold the cards.

Give Rudolph time and I'm sure he will surpass Bucher in the embarrassment department down the line.

I expect everyone here who has twitter to blast him with tweets. Tell this fool it makes no sense for Magic to take sideshow bob and weak picks from cavs! WTF! He is smoking some serious ish. Only way we help LA is if we get back Bynum or a huge package from the Rockets. Call him Dwight's puppet, too.

I almost want Rob to keep Dwight and bench him the entire season then let him walk to Dallas.

Rudolph said he reached out to Dwight and he didn't want to comment. YBR says he spoke with Dwight and said this rumour is 100% False. I'm hoping YBR is right
