Now, be sure to call out your teammates again Dwight, then wonder why they have basically given up. And please do not go to the Bulls, Derrick Rose doesn’t need any help. If things don’t go his way, I don’t see him constantly talking about where he’d be OK playing, especially if there was an All-Star game coming up in a brand new arena in the city built for the team he is currently under contract for right now. I give up for now. I just feel bad for his teammates.

Howard is acting like a clown
As long as this drama keeps going on and on, it will very difficult to expect anything from this team…

Meh, at least it expands the Magic's trading options to negotiate the best deal
I’m disappointed in all of this talk, but I’m not exactly angry at anybody in particular (my apologies to all of the current Otis-, SVG-, and/or Dwight-haters; I’ll leave you to your complaining at who you believe is at fault). I’m hoping this current bad stretch is just an aberration that everybody will be laughing about in a couple of weeks, but if not, Magic need to wait until at least March 1 anyway before a trade should be made.
In other words, if trading Dwight is a foregone conclusion anyway, I hope Dwight lists other players/teams he would like to play with all through the next month to expand the options and force the teams to up their offers.
If the Magic must trade Dwight, Hedo better stay. He needs to retire a Magic.
Exactly.
But he could do it in private, without the media being involved.

There is no indication the Bulls are actively pursuing Howard. Rose has said this season that he won’t recruit the big man either.
I don't get the whole 'pop-tart cats pooping rainbows thing,' but then, I'm old. So, there it is.
that's because Rose isn't a whining wussy

Over it.
Dwight is, sad to say, the biggest 7 foot pussy in the league. Somewhere, Shawn Bradley is agreeing with me. Shaq was a mean dude, and his fire fueled him to championships. Dwight couldn’t scare a door mouse with that sh*t eating cheese grin of his.
/end rant
At this point, I honestly wouldn't mind seeing the guy leave.
Magic existed before him, Magic will exist after him.
is there any trade with the bulls that you guys can think of that you would actually be interested in?
im not trying to troll here, i really dont have a good sense of how the serious fans of other franchises view the bulls’ players (other than rose i guess).
"We would look at each other with a glint of recognition and one of us would say, 'So you worry about ASIK, too,' as if admitting a secret vice. Then we would share our crazy ideas-- because all ideas about ASIK that are not immediately wrong turn out to be crazy."
Honestly, not really.
you guys have some really good players, but I don’t think any combination of them would be better than what other teams seem to be offering.
Please leave a message, I'm busy hiding my cat from TGS.
I'm from Chicago, but magic has always been my second favorite team since the McGrady/Hill days
I’m sure a lot of you guys are just tired of Dwights antics by now, and I see this being very close to the same story as what happened with Melo. I thought I’d give some perspective from a Bulls fan. I’m not entirely sure how I feel about this. Trading for howard means the Bulls would be giving up let’s say Noah/Deng/Korver and some Picks for Howard/Turk. As much as I would like to see pairing up a dominant center like Dwight with Rose, I’m not sure it would really work in the Bulls favor. I’m a huge fan of Deng, probably the most underrated player on our team (Our second best player behind rose), and I’d hate to part ways with our Screaming chiuaua in Noah. The Bulls are built on chemistry, and these guys genuinely like playing together. I would hate to dismantle such a core group of players for someone like Howard (even though it could possibly work out).
I imagine this sort of trade would be similar to the Knicks pre-melo era. Those guys were dominant, they killed the Bulls the first time we met and even Stoudamire was in the talks of MVP. They gutted that team and haven’t been quite as intimidating ever since. I’d hate for this to happen to the Bulls. But I feel for the magic, I hate seeing how the NBA is run by superstars. (FUCK THE HEAT) I just wish you guys the best of luck, I know the magic will be able to pull something off.
(Sorry for the wall of text)
Half a sig that's ridic
Personally, I'll be LMAO if Howard end's up like 'Melo and the Knicks. Not necessarily the Bulls, as they might be the only Eastern hope to stop the Heat.
Dwight needs to understand that if he wants a trade, the team that gets him will have to let go a lot of talent in exchange.
