And I'm not a troll, I just say what you don't agree with it. Like how the Bulls are overrated (they are), how nobody is beating the Heat in the East (nobody will), how the Knicks aren't a terrible team (they just didn't play well under D'Antoni then got injured), and how virtually every remotely good white player in the league is ridiculously overrated in this thread.

I was right about the Bulls, I will be right about the Heat, I said Indy is a team to look out for and I was right about that, and the Knicks will prove me right next year.

I guess that's why I don't get mad... because I don't take the act as serious. The fact that others have? Wow. I really thought BBD was the scottyboy for the Knicks. scotty adored... bbd hammered. lol.

Oh well, I guess it doesn't matter... The Magic will win the Championship next year anyways.

Or, the most likely scenario.. they hire Shaq as GM, Dwight gets traded and they become a financially strapped bottom feeding NBA team for the next 10 years.

I'd say #Knicksin2013, but they won't even win the division.

Top of ESPN's headline: "Shaq, Magic won't talk GM job"

OOOOoohhhyeeeahhh...

Orlando will have a TON of cap space at the end of next year when Dwight's contract is up. They'll be able to add 2 max contracts.

[MetSox17]

Who are they gonna offer max deals to? And who's gonna sign?

I don't have a crystal ball. But there will be plenty of good names out there.

Chris Paul, Dwight Howard, and Bynum is about it.

They can use that cap space to take Villanueva's contract.

A plugged-in league source tells SheridanHoops.com that the feeling is mutual, and Orlando is prepared to trade him sooner rather than later.


The source said that when Magic team president traveled to Michigan last weekend to speak in person with owner Rich DeVos, the conclusion was reached that not only was it time for Stan Van Gundy and Otis Smith to go, but Howard, too.


That means the Magic will be proactive in soliciting deals once next week’s draft lottery results are in, clearing up the lay of the land in terms of which teams can offer the most value in return.

Trade his ass to the bobcats for the 1st overall pick and everything they have since they basically stole him from them in the first place. Bobcats got hosed that year having to settle for Okafor.

[MetSox17]

That'd be hilarious, Anthony Davis would be the third dominant C they'd develop and then lose for being such a **** franchise.

[Brodeur]

Psh, like the Bobcats will actually be allowed to win the lottery.

[MetSox17]

Kyrie Irving, Tristan Thompson and Anthony Davis would be quite the consolation prize for Cavs fans.

[Brodeur]

You have to know Stern is fixing it for Brooklyn.

[LTgiants]

Anthony Davis should go to Washington. The gif is just cause I felt like posting it.

[MetSox17]

Honestly, i just hope the Bobcats don't win it. I'm gonna hate to see Anthony Davis rot away on that dogshit team.

[Brodeur]

I feel like they have a solid sixth man in Kemba, a solid perimeter defender in Gerald Henderson who would be a great 4th option on a contender, and Bismack has some tools. They could finish 20-62 with Davis next year...

[WMD]

Greg Monroe and Anthony Davis would just be so perfect.

[Ravens1991]

I would do almost anything to get Davis here in DC. Cmon David you know you want a legit team in the East especially the nations capital. Give brooklyn davis NYC will still be a knicks town. No one cares about Cleveland or Charolette either.

Not as perfect as him next to Cousins. :D

The best team to develop with him to create a Thunder-type of dynasty - Cleveland

The best team fit for what he provides as a player, complementing those around him - Sacramento

Worst fit - Charlotte. Bismack still has a LOOONG way to go. Gerald Henderson is pretty much tapped out of potential. Kemba is a tweener who's better off the bench.

Davis and Bismack would be pretty sick. That would be a great start to a team if they had a GM who didnt suck

I was pleasantly surprised at what Biyombo was able to do this season despite learning how to play basketball like, last week.

[Ravens1991]

Yeah that would be a sick defensive shot blocking combo. But Davis running with Wall and Vesley would be amazing. Stern needs to send him over to the nations capital.
