Well, Tobias finally came down from his absurd level of production. 3/14 with 6 points sounds about right for a Rookie.

I was at the game too. It was just sad to see how terrible our defensive rotations were. The team is really lacking a veteran leadership and presence while on the court. As stated, Vuc needs to learn interior defense. Unfortunately, he's not a bruiser, now can be jump to intimidate like Dwight did. His strengths are finnese and range on offense. Very much, he is like a Paul Gasol. I wonder if we were to get Noel we could match them together as an inside-out twin towers? Also, Tobias has game. Only guy who was willing to drive and take contact. I loved seeing his hustle and attitude.

Going to the game in 4 Hours and attempting to come up with a moderately witty poster for the Nets Game and all the implications/drama the game has surrounding it. Best Idea gets made into a poster, held up by myself in the lower bowl behind the Magic's Bench, and intrinsically more than likely on Television.

That shot down Chris Paul deal may have just killed me even more than I initially thought.

The fact of the matter is I think Dwight is BSing more than we know. Otis may have helped him, but the fact of the matter is, I don't see Stan and Otis bowing down to his every wish, nor should they. If he thinks someone else is going to just bow down to everything he wants, they've got something else coming. Did they take into consideration his preferences? Absolutely. Truly, I think this all comes down to the abrupt trades last year that brought in Hedo and Arenas and traded away one of his best friends and mentors, Rashard Lewis.

Done. Hope he sees it.

This. I want to leave this site, but I cannot for fear and loathing. Ugh.

Thoughts?

Wait... Is this going to turn into a Lakers get David West too deal? I'm now confused as to why the trade was off. Is this the NBA trying to cover its tracks??

:bigparty: :bigparty: :bigparty:

Would they mind trading him to a small-market team? Like an Orlando? I feel as though most of the league would approve an Orlando trade since it is a small market team and would have someone to challenge Miami in the same division, of which everyone hates and wants to see lose anyway.

Quote: johnhollinger John Hollinger This is nuts. This was a *BAD* trade by the Lakers, but other owners so jealous of their shiny object they blocked it anyway. Agree? I didn't want him there, but looking hindsight, was it a good or bad trade? My analysis: Surface: Adequate. Undersurface: Increases Chances of Dwight coming in some form or fashion. So perhaps good.

Wait... seriously?

He can go to the Clippers or Warriors for all I care. Just not the Lakers. This is the BEST News for small market teams in years. :shard:

Jerk. I had to look at my twitter twice to realize it was a fake. Ugh.

At that rate, they really don't need Dwight. I still see him staying here. I'm not worried. And there's no way in heck Otis is trading him to LA.

This is like the trade for Gasol. Doesn't make any sense for the other team. I'm totally buying into the conspiracy theory. I'm done with the NBA should Dwight go to LA.

IT's official on Twitter - Shane's announced he's signing with Miami. Eddy Curry is expected to follow suit. Why do I even watch the NBA anymore?

You dog. I was so excited at the thought of getting Battier right there. Hopes = Crushed.

I've never really understood this: J-Rich is bigger and more explosive than Ellis (albeit older and therefore has less years). Ellis is undersized, is quick, can create his own shot... but can't really do much else.... And likes to throw up shots in bulk.... on a team with a bunch of shooters? I don't see how this helps us other than appeasing Dwight's "wish list"?

If only Otis hadn't offered VC, Gortat, Peaches, and co for an lethargic player who eats too pizza before games!!! gahasoiajwef;oiaejwf;oijaewf
