I don't even like watching this team for entertainment value right now. This is just sad. I hope to be pleasantly surprised.

sounds like something the magic would love to take on, a huge contract for a declining player

I'm sure Otis is trying to make moves. The problem is the only player on the roster that anyone wants is Dwight. The team is basically stuck as is until the Dwight situation is resolved. Other GMs know Orlando is in a desperate situation. That is why the trade value of any player on the roster, including Dwight, is basically nonexistent.
Come on. In the last few days we've heard GSW offer Ellis and Lee for Dwight and OKC state they wouldn't even trade Harden and Ibaka for Dwight.

Would you do an Oak for Hedo and Duhon or BBD.

Re: Official Speculation Thread (Pt XV: Trade Deadline cont.
Would you rather we put '+1' or 'This' or something like that?
Sometimes you 100% agree with a sentiment, and have nothing else to add. Would putting "I agree" make you feel better?
Adding "This" is just as annoying. I am not sure which is more annoying but both seem pointless.
OK I get it you like someones post but this isn't twitter or facebook, its a message board which we are all here reading the same content. Maybe RealGM could add a "like" button but until then why flood the forum with blank replies or "This"?
Is it just to increase our chances of carpal tunnel?

I'm hearing Orton for Eric Gordon was in the works but Otis agrees you never trade a big for a small guard so he nixed the deal.

If we ban you, would that make things easier on you?

I'm assuming that people are just pointing out things for us skimmers to notice. I tend not to hang around here all day, so having all the little people figure things out for me is great (especially when people keep changing their avatars)... kind of like having a realgm gold membership
