    If you need to take on 3 bad contracts to get the best center in the NBA, you do it.

    Stern has told Hennigen not to deal to the Rockets... Basketball REASONS

    Henningan would be sending Dwight to the Western Confernce, its obvious Stern has a draft lottery deal for the Magic as long as they dont deal Dwight to Houston. What else could be the holdup.

    Stern.............

    No.
    No.
    No.

    If we take on three of those the most we better give up as far as young players go is Jones and Morris. Keeping White, Lamb, and D-Mo. Orlando has to sacrifice too, and if they want to dump their mistakes on the Rockets then they shouldn't get any of our high potential young guys.

    Morey will know how to maneuver those bad contracts if he gets them. He isn't Otis Smith. At worst, we'll be better than where we are right now. Some of you acting like we'll still be mediocre with Dwight. Dwight changes EVERYTHING. This is what we've all been waiting for and all of you are getting cold feet.

    he's relying more on the money enticing dwight to stay, not what dwight thinks of the potential 2013-2014 team.

    I am not sure if Morey's sexting to Hennigan is having the desired effect.

    I think its amazing how Kevin Martin has managed to stay on the roster. During this regular season he was involved in more trade rumors and talk then anyone on the roster, and now only him and Parsons and Morris remain. Crazy.

    D'oh! Completely forgot about that guy.

    Ha Donatas and Dwight. What did he say at his press conference a year ago to/about Dwight: Catch me if you can(?). Now they might be playing together.

    ALL WORD.

    My only fear in getting Dwight is what it will cost us and how can we hope he re-signs with Houston if our talent level is worse than Orlando's?

    Why do you think Orlando is going through this dog and pony show? Desperate to force Houston to up its bid. That's all you need to know about how much we are giving up. Morey will get the deal he is looking for, and not for a cent more. He is 3 steps ahead of Orlando's GM, so you can bet he is at least 10 steps ahead of some random posters on the internet the next time you think we are giving up too much.

    Clutchfans = where irrational attachment to their own players happens.

    Clutchfans = where people would prefer keeping rookies over getting a superstar like Dwight.

    If they want us to take that many bad contracts then they can't ask for as much in regards to picks and and young players. If they are, then screw them and move on from this Dwight saga.

    I'll take J-Rich, Q-Rich and maybe Turk If it means keeping White.

    D-Mo can't be traded so I'll keep White to take on Turk

    That's a lot of bad contracts.

    Hopefully we can move Scola through trade instead of amnesty.
