Re: NBA Movement Central 2012 (All Transactions 1st Page)
Just out of interest, are the Orlando Magic considered a small market team?Comment

We'll see how you feel when that debacle of roster is competing for Charlotte's infamous losing record. I like Vucevic, but outside of him, Afflalo (overpaid) and Harrington that was a farce. What good is a $17.8 million dollar exception when absolutely no one of merit wants to play in Orlando. Add to the fact that the team is, I believe, still over the cap.So getting two young wing players, a young big, a veteran that can contribute for a year and then be bought out, three first round picks and a 17.8 million dollar trade exception is giving him away for nothing? Okay.
I get that none of those guys are "supahstahs" or whatever, but the dude was leaving anyway. Giving him away for nothing would have been letting him walk at the end of the year. Taking this trade was the complete opposite.
EDIT- I read that in Weird Al's voice, actually.

Yes, trading for subpar and average NBA talent while the other three teams receive all-stars, Olympians and "superstars" is a even deal. Guess you gotta spin that horrendous trade anyway possible.
Robert Sarver and his front-office still need to be kicked in the face as well. Why didn't Phoenix or Orlando trade Nash and Howard before last season's trade deadline? I'm sure they would receive much better offers from other teams or even the Lakers. Instead, they allow the situations to play out far too long thus removing all their leverage, while taking it up the **** from Los Angeles.

In order for taking this trade to be the complete opposite of letting him walk at the end of the year there would have needed to be....you know, not been at least two significantly better offers on the table. They took the absolute worst of at least three offers, they may have well should have just let him walk for nothing considering pretty much the same result came about.So getting two young wing players, a young big, a veteran that can contribute for a year and then be bought out, three first round picks and a 17.8 million dollar trade exception is giving him away for nothing?

Nah, the Heat are still the nWo. Lakers can't just show up and take that. They can be like...original DX or something or like Money Inc. but LeBron, Wade and Bosh still best represent the nWo. They even got Ray Allen to be Macho Man joining up after fighting them tooth and nail for the last two years.Comment

The Lakers are the new Corporation and Mitch is Vince McMahon.
I'll reserve the Money Inc. label for Brooklyn as they've shown no problem just throwing money around(see Lopez, Brook, Wallace, Gerald and Humphries, Kris).
nWo still belongs to the Heat.#RespectTheCultureComment

Not liking Dwight at all here... Dude fussed and whined and held a team hostage, got a coach and GM fired, lied and weaseled his way to LA
This guy makes LeBron look like the Pope if he had done 4 decisionsComment
