    No. They said Bird and Walsh are in Orlando now.

    I am going to try and ask this in the simplest way possible:

    You said, and I quote:

    what the hell does "Orlando reported the Pacer's deal" mean?

    Also, you should have said you got it from the ESPN message boards. Whatever it is you're trying to say is much less likely to be true in that case.

    snowmt01,

    For your sake, I hope this is confirmed. If not, you just set this board into a frenzy for reporting stuff that Clutch specifically frowns upon.

    They reported it just came on the news - all at the same time...

    That sucks to live in Orlando if your nightly news is not on till 11:30PM...

    :rolleyes:

    The orlando boards reported that they heard on a local channel that Bird was in Orlando to offer Artest, Harrinton, and Bender. So Orlando takes Nelson to keep for themselves to and make the deal with the Pacers. Just hearsay at this point, but supposedly reported on local Orlando news.

    Larry wouldn't go to Orlando at night to pitch a deal. Fake.

    I didn't see any confirmations, just people calling the guy a liar for not having a source/link.

    Edit: now I see them. :(

    Channel 2, which has all the Magic draft news on its homepage, evidently didn't think of enough of the Bird visit to put it here:
