Alex Kennedy @AlexKennedyNBA Dwight Howard said the Magic have an opportunity to contend this year and he has made it clear that he wants finish the season in Orlando.
Wow Dwight is totally playing the Magic. Wants to wait until next season to join his preferred team so they don't have to give up any good players or picks to get him. Ha ha!
Marc Stein @ESPNSteinLine Close Should be clear by now Dwight wants to finish season in ORL so he can opt out in July and head straight to Brooklyn w/out Nets being gutted
Heh. This is too funny. I wonder if the webmaster screwed up by posting it too early. Then again, maybe the webmaster leaked it anyway. I made a screenshot, in case the NBA removes the link before the trade deadline.
There's even a link on the Nets main store for it. Best tweet thusfar: @bruce_arthur: If Orlando doesn't trade Dwight now, they're the guy who thinks that stripper really likes them.
Its obvious, that Dwight only wants to stay so the Nets don't gut the team. With that said, maybe the Nets should trade Lopez+other player(s) or pick for Scola so they have a PF that can compliment Howard inside. Once they sign him this summer.
Boy o Boy. There is no way Otis and Devos can accept this without Dwight committing to one more season.
