    Why did Lamb & Jones have to do good in summer league, damnit! No way I love to lose both of them, White is probably going to take years before he's fully adjusted to the NBA level. Jones is ready and Lamb probably very close.
    I hope the guy is full of ****, also why would it go down so soon.

    Sounds like he contradicts himself ? He says his source is directly involved and then makes it sound like he is involved ... I call bull****

    Howard is drama and our guard rotation is awful after this trade:
    Lin / Douglas / Duhon
    J-Rich / ??

    If Lamb and Jones are the only prospects we're giving up, then I'd consider that a HUGE victory for the Rockets. We're talking about getting DWIGHT HOWARD. And so soon? As compared to what? He has to get traded before training camp, and the Magic have waited plenty long to make a deal. It's evident they aren't getting anymore in a deal that hasn't already been offered up.

    Not saying I believe cyberx, but everything he's said so far on these boards has at least made sense. He's given me no reason to doubt him thus far.

    He's definitely trolling since he wont call on Chuck Nevitt's challenge.

    cyberx is an insider from this forum. He said he worked for an agent, but didn't say which one.

    With that said, something tells me it's just an Orlando magic fan whose read this forum and is impersonating cyberx to get us to buy it.

    But I guess will find out Tuesday or Wednesday... or whatever..:rolleyes:

    The way Lamb blew up summer league, I am not surprised that the Magic insisted on him. I would much rather give up Patterson/Morris (even both) over Jones, but it is Dwight frikkin Howard so gotta do it, albeit with much regrets.

    Will have to pick up another shooting guard tho (assuming Martin is also involved with the trade, with Richardson coming the other way I hope): maybe Carlos Delfino? Delonte West?? Dominic McGuire???

    Jrich and Baby aren't terrible to put on if that truly is the trade I'll be happy with it. It also clears up the logjam of forwards leaving white parson donatas big baby and pdpatt

    Was just about to comment on this. This trade is freaking horrible, if anything give up White instead of Lamb, we're already stacked at the 4.

    Maybe he is not directly involved in negotiations, but he works on making sure numbers work, and things of that nature. Just a guess of course.

    That means we take on 3 bad contracts and no way I want Davis on this team with so many power forwards already, he's going to take up playing time from D-Mo and White!! **** that trade
