Did Hennigan forget the cookies?


Am I glad when Dwight is finally traded and signed a new contract, then Rudolph will disappear as Howard is his only source. Not to mention Rudolph burnt his bridges with the Magic in the last couple of months Im sure.

The skittles, actually. Which showed Dwight he didn't know him well enough so that made him make a career decision off of that... ;)

It's time for Henny to initiate the Houston Rockets trade.

I'm going to be fair to Rudolph, he did bring us our Dwight Howard news a lot during this whole ordeal. He's not the greatest, but when it came to Dwight, he was pretty reliable.

With Ebanks still unsigned, LAL deal is favored if something happens before August.

They probably made Dwight drive himself to his meeting instead of ordering him a limo. Typical Magic front office...

Jarrod N Rudolph ‏@JRudolphSports
Source: Magic GM Rob Hennigan not rushing to move Howard without a trade that offers "acceptable compensation" for the six-time All-Star

Alex Kennedy ‏@AlexKennedyNBA
Meeting between Dwight Howard and Rob Hennigan is over. Howard wouldn't drop his trade demand, per source. Magic's last-ditch effort failed.
