Did anyone really think he'd be back all of next year?

He's going to be traded in the offseason. even the day he decided to stay 1 more year, I thought this was almost a given.

I dont know how informed yall are on this. But yall should check who Howards agent is. A lot of this trade shite was because of him. Espescially the New Jersey shite.

Dudes name is Dan Fegan. Theres a decent thread located on truebluenation.com.

Heres the thread LINK

I do agree that Howard needs to get over all this image shite and just be himself. Its just obvious from a fans perspective that he has been led astray by people who dont have his best interest.

A true friend will tell Dwight things like "go with your heart" and ones who have other interests will say things like "you need to here cause of big markets, addidas, etc etc"

JMHO

Not sure. I think they might fire SVG in the off-season in an attempt to appease Dwight and convince him to stay. It also probably doesn't work.

Though someone will get a good coach. SVG to the Clippers!

The end of the season for the Magic should be interesting.

Stan fricked up...

you let a third party reveal this type of info

now you tried to ruin your star player's (not a role player you can explain away as "the team" or "the locker room") reputation with the playoffs not too far away, a player who can walk after you lose

Dwight can deny deny deny now, and they may have to fire Stan

A win against the Knicks sure would be nice tonight.....especially after our last game against them the other night. Any word on whether Dwight, RA, or Jameer will be back?

Reporter: "Do you believe that Dwight has asked that you be fired?"

Stan Van Gundy: "Yes, I know he has."

Its no suprise that Howard would want SVG gone.

I wouldnt mind seeing Ewing finish out the season.

No way they fire Stan right before the playoffs start. And Ewing is probably 4th on the list to finish out the season if something ridiculous were to happen.

Might have to revisit these comments in the future.

Here's the video of Stan Van Gundy confirming the report. Fast forward to the 2:50 mark for the lulz. LINK

I have never seen a player destroy their image so completely without breaking any laws or having some major scandal hit.
