Yeah Stern promised Dwight a championship to go to LA, when he nixed the CP3 trade to LA last year. Get that idiocy out of here please. -_-

It keeps ESPN/media/fans interested in the NBA in the off-season - it's a win for the league, which is a business.

lmao you can't read sarcasm. He nixed the CP3 deal bc the owners petitioned against it.

The good thing (in a schadenfreude way), imo, about this is that it may hurt Fegan in future negotiations for his is other clients.

He has $ in his interest, not the integrity of the game for the fans.

I think it's pretty cool Stern called Fegan out. He wasn't saying it was bad, just wanted to let everyone know that it's only have the story.

Not for everyone ... some here are in the mind frame that "everything the Magic org does is the personification of ineptitude" based on leaked reports from D12's team.

Bobcats fan here (yes, we exist). Just want to send my condolences for the recurring Dwightmare. What a mess. I really hope you guys can turn him into something of value (a la Denver/Carmelo)

Thank you.

I'll have you also know that, once we trade D12, I hope your team wins as many games as they possibly can

Both of you are right. The Magic have handled things poorly in the past, but in my opinion, Howard has handled himself poorly as well. Between the 2 sides we get the crapfest we are getting now.

Without that said Tim Duncan would never, EVER pull what Dwight is pulling right now. He is classier and more mature than Dwight ever will be.
