As hard as Orlando is trying to keep Howard, expect SVG gone at the end of season and Orlando will be scrambling to land another free agent to keep Howard happy. If not, Plan B will be resorting to trade him before next season's trade deadline to get any value they can before he leaves for nothing in free agency.

I dont think it is possible for Dwight to annoy me any more this season. My god he is the biggest baby in the NBA- he cares WAAAY too much about how people view him. First he wanted to go to the lakers, then decided against it because he didnt want to be too much like Shaq. Jesus man just make up your damn mind on whether you are staying or leaving.

Oh, and by the way, Stan Van Gundy has been awesome this year. What the fug did you expect him to do when Ryan Anderson is your 2nd best player and the only other legitimate NBA players on the team are Jason Richardson (old, hasnt played well), Hedo Turkoglu (also old), Jameer Nelson (terrible this year), JJ Redick, and Glen Davis. Oh, and your best player has been involved in an ongoing soap opera the entire season too. Its a bunch of one-dimensional 3 point shooters + Dwight, and yet they somehow have the 4th best record in the East.

If you're going to demand someone be fired, why not the GM Dwight?

It is a longshot at best but if he is available this summer AND we get Anthony Davis in the draft, we may be able to get him here. He is a good Xs & Os coach and that is what Bismak, Kemba and Davis would need to help them progress.

Wont be the first time a superstar NBA player gets a coach run out of town, or the last.

Sometimes it works out, see Magic Johnson/Paul Wewsthead/Pat Riley. Lakers had a lot of success under Westhead but the team didn't like him and their Superstar spoke out.

A happy clubhouse keeps your star in town. We'll see what the Magic decide.

      With the first pick, don't draft a QB? Draft a DE? C'mon!

      Where did I once say we should draft him because he's a projected Top 5 pick?   That's one of my many problems with you, your reading comprehension skills are very poor (and/or you just don't care to use your brain, one of the two).  I solely used that to point out that me pushing T-Mac isn't some absurd homerism, that at least I'm pushing someone who is deserving of a Top 5 draft pick. And despite me explaining it to you numerous times, you still seem to not grasp how QB's get placed in mock drafts vs draft grades.  They are treated entirely different in mock drafts to any other position, because of how teams generally treat them in the draft because of how important the position is. Literally any other position except QB, mock drafts generally follow draft grades with some team needs factored in.  But with QB's, draft grades are generally disregarded and they ALWAYS put a few QB's at the very top of the draft, because that's just usually what happens.  The exact same thing happened in 2022 with guys like Pickett and Willis widely being Top 10 picks in mock drafts, only for Pickett to fall to what, around 20?, and Willis going in the 2nd round (and even being the 3rd QB if I remember correctly too). The overwhelming majority of draft experts are saying there isn't a high first round grade on these QB's, but they still get mocked there because they're trying to predict how the draft will actually go. That's been my point the entire time, reaching for a QB in a bad QB draft when you have a roster as depleted of talent as ours, does not tend to work out well. And I've never said I'm not open to other players, I've very explicitly said that if a QB or DE stands out come draft time, I'm open to that discussion.  That I'd be open to Hunter as a CB but I prefer a WR over a CB at the top of the draft.  But we're also not talking about the 15th pick here where there could realistically be all sorts of possible picks to discuss.  With the first pick, there really would only be a small handful of options, T-Mac is head and shoulders above any other given our current roster and state of the franchise in general.

      TMac is good, but he isn't pick 1 on a WR good.  Last year he would be below Nabers and Williams.  This year you could argue Hunter is the better WR.  WR at 1 better be a Calvin Johnson not a WR that disappears some games in college...

      So because he's a projected top 5 pick he's should be the guy we draft.   Yet you say the other 2 QBs who are projected top 5 picks are not worth it because you think they aren't that good.   That's my problem with you. You just seem to only care about Tmac. I have yet to see you suggest anyone outside of Tmac. At least I'm open to other prospects.
