- Harkless prefers to go by Maurice; not Mo.
- this deal is still better than Nets' offer
- Management chose this package for a reason and I'm interested to see how it plays out
- Philly's pieces intrigue me
- I'm happy to get cheap tix for my family

It is what it is. Still a magic fan and will cheer for my team.

Cap floor, plus he's only partially guaranteed for the final two years of his deal, so while it's bad, it's not as horrific as it looks at first glance.

I'm battle tested and PROUD to be a Magic fan even after this "highly criticized" trade. A new day, a new era, embracing it like nobody's business.

So much for snagging a cheap ticket to see kobe this year...

We as fans need to show our support for this team this season. The first game of the season, we need to sell the Amway Center out and show the world that the Orlando Magic are bigger than Dwight Howard.

And when the coward does come to town on March 12th, we need to boo as loudly as we have ever boo'd before. And don't show up late. Everyone should be at that game 20 minutes early before tipoff to boo him for shootaround!

John Hollinger ‏@johnhollinger
Go easy on Hennigan. Hearing Orl Pres Alex Martins likely ran this one. Always good to have non-bball folks make critical decision.

No tears shedded here, a new day, a new team, and no more superhero sized distraction to get in the way of progress towards the future. Now lets see who the real fans are...

Henny might not be the GM by the time the time comes around to make all the draft picks for this trade
