Two of the sources caution that they have not heard directly from Orlando management that the Magic have agreed to the deal.

Maybe I'm wrong...

But I still feel there is zero chance this goes down as reported.

Thats because no one has perspective. For example, we dont want Bynum because we are doing a full on rebuild which is the right thing to do. But in this twitter era everyone wants changes imediately and in the situation we are in we would be stuck being mediocre with large contracts, no capspace and no draft picks. When we traded Tmac and got back 3 veterans (Francis, Mobley, Cato) that did not turn out very well did it? We did not make the playoffs with those guys, we did not have capspace and our draft position sucked. So if we do the deals that ESPN says we should have done then that would be our destiny- being mediocre.

No. It's because the deal sucks and is embarrassing. **** picks, **** prospects, more salary. Probably the worst trade in NBA history.

Afflalo but who cares really? This is the most boring Magic team ever. No one to be excited about and a weak draft class to sort through. Fun times ahead.

Don't forget the extra 'L' in Afflalo...we're gonna need all the L's we can get the next few years.

I made my peace with a deal being done for Dwight long time ago....knew that it was time for him to go....but THIS particular deal as it's reported i'm not really feeling....i hope some of the pieces change....

Lakers expected to get guard Chris Duhon & forward Earl Clark in Dwight Howard deal, too, source tells Y! Sports. Magic to land 2nd rd picks

Nothing says 'I won this trade' more than landing the #59 pick in the 2016 draft.

Haven't you heard...

Henny and his band of draft wizards will surely get a future Hall of Famer with that pick.

At least the Lakers will be un beatable. I mean damn man. How can that happen.

Ok, someone do us a favor and spin this in a positive way for Orlando. I have a feeling my emotions are getting the best of me and I can't see the positives.

This really should cause an uproar amongst all other owners .... The NBA needs a hard cap so bad it's not even funny, and it should be a low as hell hard cap as well
