The Blue Board

F the Nets. I want either Deron Williams or Dwight Howard or I'll be disappoint in this offseason.

Its managements fault for not trading in offseason, they cant get any value now

I hate dwight. Such a whiny nerd. Your not funny either dwight. Dudes a cornball. Fans will always blame dwight for leaving. I don't get why he wants to leave so bad. The team he's on is pretty good

The team he is on is that classic team that will make the playoffs every year but has a snowball's chance in hell of winning a title. I think he's hilarious and cool. I don't think you or really I understand some of the frustrating factors in Orlando such as their incompetent GM Otis Smith.

Rashard Lewis, Vince Carter, Hedo....the guy knows how to add good but not great pieces.

This.

Dwight has done everything in his power to destroy his Mr. Nice Guy, fun and games image. His curtain call last night was the nail in the coffin. The Magic should "roll the dice" and keep him for the rest of the season with zero commitment from him in return? Then he goes so far as to imply that the Magic owe it to him to keep him for the rest of the season because he played hard every night so far? That's your effing job, homie and you get paid well to do it. DH12 says he wants to deliver a title to the town, LOL. Could he have said he is leaving after this year anymore clearly than he did after last night's game? He's acting like an ass. I'm glad to see the Magic have responded by telling him to commit for at least next year or they'll ship him out before this time tomorrow. If the rumors about Tyson Chandler and Melo for DH12 and Turk are true, I say take that deal. I'd even take Bynum for DH12 straight up at this point. I don't want the Magic to send him to the Nets, but if they do it sure as hell will be interesting in Orlando on Friday night when the Nets roll into town with DH12 wearing their jersey. That might actually pry me away from the NCAA tourney for a few minutes.

For sure. Adrian Wojnarowski is reporting that Magic players have spoken about this team meeting with Dwight and said that Dwight told them he is all in for this year. They said next year wasn't even discussed. A lot of smoke blowing around. If he opts in for next year, we will just have this whole thing to do over again. If the breakup occurs in the next day, or if he stays the rest of this year and walks in the summer, it will be a pretty ugly break up. DH will really be trying hard to surpass the scorn that Magic fans have for Shaq.

Shaq is just likeable, and most Magic fans I know blame the team for not wanting to pay him. When Shaq goes by my work, Magic fans still freak out like schoolgirls. I think DH will be treated much uglier by Magic fans, as clearly its his decision to walk.

^This. I know the report was refuted by both sides, but if even a shred of the Magic offering him final say in any management positions is true, then that is absolutely pathetic.

For every penny you lose you gain one if not two. If you think going to the Nets will cause his yearly net income go down then I gotta ignore you. You can only do so many Disneyworld commercials.

What's funny is Dwight is doing exactly what I prescribed in my OP.

I guess he's changed his mind again (for the best ). What a circus. Now that it appears as though the Magic fan meltdown is delayed for at least another year it's time for us Magic fans to sit back and enjoy the Nets fan meltdown.
