I hope that means that Dwight Howard will not be going to Dallas!

I wonder who Dwight will hire in Orlando.

Donnie Walsh and Mike D'antoni

Maybe they will reach out to Isaiah, since FIU let him go. jk

This really makes Orlando ownership look bad:

Fire a good coach and GM based on the wishes of a bratty player, and the go ahead an trade said bratty player.

These coaches have just as much ego as the players.

Bynum doesn't seem too happy in LA. Although I live in LA and it would be fun to have D12 on the Lakers, I wouldn't want it at the expense of the Jazz. However, I can't imagine that either NJ or Dallas could give another player or package that would be as enticing as Bynum to Orlando.

Orlando wouldn't be a bad place for Jerry, and I'd be happy to see him coach there. Charlotte? I may have just thrown up in my mouth a little.

I totally agree with Stephen A Smith:
