what do you expect? Him to sign new deal between halftime in front of camera and take a pic with Divac ?


then dont say it is a done deal and already reported


Like it's public secret that Lebron is leaving Cavs in offseason and George won't resign with OKC? Some things you know before they are officially reported.

those wouldnt be a secret. Saying there is already a deal in place with LA, for example, is where it would become similar and a problem.

Dude, you aren't making any sense.

First you say that Mario going to Sacramento is a done deal, then you say he's surely leaving and then you finish it off by saying there's no reason for him to stay considering he wasn't treated well here. Nobody is saying Mario is staying or that he was treated so well here that he should stay, they're just calling you out for presenting your opinions as facts and constantly moving goal posts.

I mean, I couldn't care less where LeBron and PG will end up cause they sure as hell ain't singing with the Magic but I still find it very annoying that you're acting like some well connected basketball insider when in reality you have zero knowledge about what is going to happen.

Haha thanks. :) I don't like the guy though and I certainly wouldn't call him poor but I kinda get your point.

Sense of what ? Dude , every single balkan media reported that Kings will offer Mario deal ,his connections with Kings ,from business and family stand point make it clear that-that offer will be higher than Magic can offer ( $5,2M with 5% raise in salary next years).
Of course, if other team comes out with some crazy offer ,he will take that offer instad of Kings . It doesn't make any difference for Magic ,because it's clear that he is gone.

What's so hard to understand? It's bidding war where Kings will be first in line to offer .

I'll just skip the rest of your post cause for your sake I hope it's just the language barrier that's the issue here.

You said Hezonja going the Kings is a done deal. Saying the Kings are interested in him is a totally different thing. Hope you can see the difference.

:banghead:
it's done deal- Kings are offering him more it means he is gone from Magic. NOW there is always CHANCE that some OTHER team offers him better, bigger longer teal because it's not official- until it's official.
It has nothing to do with language barrier, but if you didn't notice, Hezonja CAN'T officialy sign until end of 2017-18 season.

Since Mario already has connections with Kings , their GM and they already tried to trade for him, and since they don't have SF and will probably draft C/PF that also makes them best landing spot from his POV . So it's safe to say that there is at least 80% chance that Kings are his new team ,20% Magic or any other team.

It's not like NBA allows pre-contracts where i can prove to you today that he signed with Kings. I really don't understand what do you expect me to prove to you? Show you print screen messages between him and Vlade?

There's obvious reasons to speculate that the Kings might go after him, but it's still just speculation. No disrespect to the #BalkanMedia.
11/18/2017 - I have officially disowned Nikola Vucevic and branded him a loser.

- Skal Labissiere was my guy in 2016 pre-trade. Whoops, but I still believe.
- Malik Monk was my guy in 2017. Whoops(?)
- Mo Bamba was my guy in 2018. TBD.

The loss of Mario will be an amazing exclamation point on the worst managed season by any front office in Magic history.

I'm not convinced Lebron is leaving. They have already started cleaning house and have a chance at a great draft pick. I wouldn't be shocked if he stayed.
