    BTW, I hate to reply twice to my own thread, but he's being replaced by Chris Jent. Isn't he a former Rocket?

    Yup, on the first championship.

    The drama continues season long. Weisbrod really has a knack with the entertainment industry.

    But wait a minute, Rockets management were the ones at fault and McGrady isn't a superstar and Orlando made out the best in this deal! I know this because Weisbrod told me so!

    That franchise is in a complete tailspin. As long as Weisbrod is the GM, they will continue to struggle and won't get the new arena.

    Too funny ... On many levels

    Chris Jent as coach
    Weisbrod trading Tmac then shipping Mobley for Christie

    It's all karma

    Rudy T anyone?

    If not, Mo Cheeks and the young assistant on the Grizzlies who used to coach the Warriors, he is a going to be a great coach. I still think the Mobley for Christie deal is what has done them in along with no consistent post presence.

    Rudy said he was done with coaching after resigning from the Lakers.

    This quote after the Sacramento loss probably didn't help his cause:

    "We're sitting in a playoff position. What could be better than that?"

    you know... you want to go pile on the Magic fans that jumped on the bandwagon and piled on againt the Rockets in Nov and Dec.

    but the tables have been turned so quicklly and so dramically, I am thinking

    ... why bother - its silly - they know they jumped the gun with the "magic won the trade" smack

    and Weis-a$$ hockey man - has displayed how over his head he really is

    Francis, Christie and Cato

    for

    Howard, Tmac, James and Barry

    I think ESPN had it right the first time when they said, this is the kind of deal in fantasy basketball that get protested by EVERY owner

    For Weisbrod being a total ass, of course. I think most people in here wish failure upon the Magic because of Weisbrod, not Steve. I, for one, hope Steve gets traded to a team I can cheer for.
