The Magic/Howard drama is interesting, probably should have just traded him.

[GameTime]

gotta love van gundys blunt honesty.

My admiration for Howard personally has fallen quite a bit.  Either play for the Magic or don't, but STFU.

And Stan should have kept his mouth shut.  That entire organization may need to be blown up.  Otis has failed miserably too.

I'm glad Stan went public with it. Dwight has been trying to get him fired forever, Stan got sick of it and decided to stick up for himself while at the same time exposing Howard for the fraud he is. I'm over that guy and I sincerely hope he's traded before next season. I agree on Otis, total trash.

I understand Stan being pissed about Howard's antics, but it was still fairly unprofessional.

In the west I'm going with the Spurs, Thunder, and Grizz. Upset special is Denver over LA.

In the East I'm going with Chicago, Heat, Magic, and Hawks.

With or without Dwight I feel the Magic can beat Indy, we'll find out.

Bobcats finish with the worst record in NBA history. If they don't get the number one pick...

[Legend]

Awful news for the Bulls.

[Escobar06]

Dwight and Rose out, makes life a lot easier for the Heat.

[bucsquad]

That sucks.
