    Hedo in Howard's trade

    We aren't getting bynum and gasol for Dwight and hedo. most likely a 3rd team will be involved.
  2. Harper can easily replace Anderson here. Honestly. Not to discredit Ryno, but he is simply knocking down wide open 3s at a very high % right now. I believe Harper could end up being better.

    Ryan Anderson breakout season?

    Exactly. And D12 is the reason he is getting these looks. If we have to ship D12, we need to move Ryno as well. Personally, I believe Harper could be even better once he gets his chance. but I give kudos to Ryan Anderson who is a very good player and a class act.
  4. You have a huge chip on your shoulder for no reason.
  5. I will be honest, I do not think Big Baby's contract is that bad. He is still young and is a versatile frontcourt player. I am not a huge fan of the JRich deal though. That should have been 2 years. I don't get that.
  6. A lot of you guys were wrong about Baby, at least I hope that out look continues, but I believe it will. He brings a different attitude..the never say die mentality, that we really needed. A message board habit we all can get into is to post like we are all authorities and can predict how a player will do in a given situation. I guess this is why we all watch the games instead of coach them.

    Game Thread: Heat @ Magic 12/20/11 (preseason)

    Glad to see people changing their tune on Baby. It is so easy to armchair it and look at stats, but he brings a far better look to this team. We got a taste of it last night. What I am hoping now is that Harper keeps balling and we keep running with Hughes/JJ/Liggins as our reserve wings. That is a real athletic and versatile backcourt. Also Orton..this guy has potential. He really can shoot rather well, and I have been saying it for a while. I think he could end up being a very very good player for us, but we just have to hope he gets the PT.
  8. There is no way Dwight stays with our starting lineup like this. It is really bad. I am at the point where I pray that Harper is good enough to somehow get burn and relegate Hedo to 6th man, and Liggins gets to run point behind Jameer and in 30 games get some starting time. Does that sound insane enough? Because it is. We have nothing..JRich is our "go to scorer". LOL. What a massive fail by Otis so far. I feel like a college football fan begging for the freshman QB to start because the seniors suck so hard. Orton needs to play to..let him see the court for 5 mins a game. Give the guy something.
  9. Just curious what your opinion is? And I am not being confrontational, but wow the team looks bad. They got run on by the Heat's 3rd string.
  10. Hey guys remember when he actually didn't? He said it looked like it was done. Do you really think the Magic did not go after him last year?
  11. They are trying to do that..it's not easy. GSW may keep Ellis due to Marc Jackson loving him
  12. Thank you. I pretty much posted the scenario the Magic are trying to achieve a few pages back but it seems to be dominated by arguing with a Nets fan.
  13. I am not sure if it will happen or not. It was leaked that the Magic are pursuing Ellis yesterday. The problem is Marc Jackson melted down and does not want to trade Ellis. As a new coach, he does have some pull. I pray he relents because the Magic have a real shot at making this happen if so. It is far from a slam dunk like you are insinuating. What we do know is that the Magic have gone after Ellis. This could set up a huge shift if it happens. Why? With Ellis here running point this year, Dwight could stay. Guess what NJ? We are going after YOUR best player this summer then. Ellis moves to SG and we now have a title contender for years.
  14. It's only Magical because it's just something the Magic are pursuing and is not past that stage. So you are correct. And also Warriors are raving about Ellis and Marc Jackson may say no to this deal. But Magic have to do their work and try.
  15. I think we all know SVG will squash our dreams for the first 30 games or so.
  16. Not really a lie, but you have always bashed everything so carry on..lol.
  17. I get it just fine thanks. We went to the finals with his exact same style of play. Obviously we can argue about this all day long, but the season has not even started yet and I'd like to see the final roster. As for rookies, I believe that Harper could make an immediate impact. His play overseas was excellent. This guy is ready to do work. Our backup PF/C would be Biedrins, who IMO is a legit backup C. We could also slide Harper down there. And let's see what Orton can do..he could be a pleasant surprise. I believe he is more talented than Gortat, just needs the experience.
  18. He sucks when he is taking way too many shots. If he is bringing the ball up and deferring to a better scorer like Ellis maybe the chemistry changes.
  19. I believe Magical because I know him and he gave me the Hedo trade info which I posted here. He also was the first guy who even brough up Big Baby coming here, but at the time we were thinking he'd be a FA signing instead of a trade. But do I believe the warriors will do it? Not sure..I think it is a pretty nice trade that gives them depth at PG. JJ could also be a stud in their system, and Ryan Anderson is a very nice change of pace from Lee. With Hedo able to run point I believe Monte could be a complete beast here. I also am excited about the young rookies..there is a lot of bench depth with this trade. There is defense available as well.
  20. Nice to see people warming up to Big Baby here. I truly think his attitude is what we need. Now let's get 2 more guys with the same mindset and go to war.
  21. Very excited about Harper. I really like his game.
  22. That's because as stated multiple times I know the guy. He also called the big Baby acquisition, but don't worry about that one. Keep hating. I am sure you are a happy fellow. Personally, it is nice to see NBA ball again, regardless of the drama.
  23. waaah. He also tweeted that Otis wanted Big Baby, so I guess this whole day is a lie and we are dreaming?
  24. I am on a new account, but I shared info before that came through. You can search under Catman if you really want to. I also do not have a Twitter and radio show where I make up rumors to get hits. I posted it here so the 10 or so regulars could read it, and that's it.
