    Shaq: He(SVG) lost his team forever and it can't be repaired. Guys respect guys with proven resumes. Stan is good but sometimes they dont respect him.

    - - - - - - -

    @jadande: Deposing the coach is just another way in which Dwight is following Shaq's path.

    :p

    I just now watched the morning interview(w/ SVG/Dwight) on the TNT halftime show and wow --talk about awkward.

    My thoughts exactly! That is super awkward. SVG is obviously pretty cut, disappointed. Dwight trying to play oblivious Mr. Nice guy card still, but SVG has exposed him for the douche bag he is. If SVG blew up just then and said 'I can't believe you went to management with this Dwight, you said you had my back' it would've been the cherry on the sundae!

    Tells you how much Shaq hates SVG that he's taking Dwight's side(if you will), ha.

    Shaq sucks, he's obviously biased and shouldn't even try to give out his opinion.

    Sounds like LeBron-Cleveland 2.0.

    Some people still believe that "players should have the freedom to go where they want." Well, this is how it works. Superstars holding the team hostage. Managements have to bend over to satisfy their demands just so to hope that the stars would stay. When what the star demands doesn't help the team, he blames the management and walks away.

    I'd bet money that Stan gets fired tomorrow.

    Talk about a Good Friday.

    **** just got real:

    SVG postgame: "We are in a dark place right now."

    RT @MagicInsider One player's comments to me: "Our problem isn't Stan (Van Gundy). We got one guy who wants to run the show."


    RT @MagicInsider Magic player to me: "I know Dwight will be gone after next season."

    RT @MagicInsider Ryan Anderson on SVG: "I won't le to you. It's very frustrating...after all that crap (Howard's traded demand)."


    RT @MagicInsider Magic player to me about lockeroom climate: "We're split."

    RT @MagicInsider Hedo Turkoglu on Stan Van Gundy: "I want Stan to be my coach forever."


    RT @MagicInsider Ryan Anderson on Stan Van Gundy: "I love Stan. I think he's a great coach for us."

    RT @MagicInsider Ryan Anderson: "..Now all of a sudden it's chaos."

    What a disaster for Orlando. Split locker room. Prima Donna superstar who is now probably pissed cause he got sold out not only by the coach, but by the front office as well. A GM who probably has LESS job security than the coach.

    Suddenly, the mediocrity treadmill doesn't look as bad.

    ORL on a 5 or 6 game losing streak dropped to 6 in the East as well.
