I guess the Magic felt they needed to do something to replace that Grant Hill bargain.

Darko is gone. They had to renounce his rights to free up the cap room to sign Lewis.
Donovan made the right choice.
This signing would be the dumbest I have ever seen.... Shoot, give me a job as a GM and I could do better than this.
This is the worst contract I've ever seen a team pay to a player on their own team.
Shard's agent: My client's looking for something around the 6 year/$80 million range.
Otis Smith: I call that and raise you to 6 years/$90 million!
Shard's agent: Mr. Smith, we're not playing poker...
Otis Smith: $100 million!
Shard's agent: We already said we'd be happy with the first amount.
Otis Smith: $110 million!
Shard's agent: Are you seri...
Otis Smith: $126 million!
Shard's agent: Wow! You must really be enamoured with Rashard's skills. I don't see any reason to shop him anywhere else. We gladly accept your offer and I'll fax you all the paperwork tomorrow (leaves room).
Otis Smith: $200 million!
i wonder how long before people in Orlando start saying their team is hexed by the cursed of Shaq. Seriously, nothing good has happened there since he left. If i was Dwight Howard i would get out while my ankles and knees were still intact.

I think he was trying to follow the Ferry model that got LeBron to resign: "Maybe if I go out and throw cash around like a lawyer in a strip club, our star will see how serious we are about building a winning program!" But averaging $21M/yr. for Rashard Fucking Lewis is the most ridiculous thing I've personally ever seen.Quote:

Yeah but imagine how much trade value that expiring contract will have in 2012!!!Quote:

Given he has only ever once played a full 82 games in 9 years.... it's a dangerous contract, and that does not even consider his contribution on the court!
they are going to extend howard sometime this week.
WALLACE only resign with the bobcats at 60m/6yr or 10-12mill per yr with 2m bonus base on performance.....thats a fuckn steal there for the hello kitties
I heard that too. They just have to figure out how many zeros in a "Kajillion" first.Quote:

Howard is signing a 5 yr, $80 million extension. Somebody on here has a picture of Howard in a Spurs uni in their signature and I keep hearing talk about the "08 Master Plan." I'm glad it doesn't include Dwight Howard.
And this is why the Spurs win championships ... and most of the other teams don't.
They don't know how to put together a team.
Another question ... where was Isiah in all this? Couldn't he have offered Lewis about the same? Or is he waiting for Lewis to get into his 30's and show a bad attitude before trading for him?
Rashard has to have a degenerative ankle or knee problem before Zeke will touch him.Quote:
