Good dealing from Orlando really, I guess it wasn't hard to persuade the FO but still good dealing![]()
He called it
P.S.
So let me get this straight. The Magic used the Mavs to get a trade exception in the Hedo trade. The Magic signed Bass and were able to do so because the Mavs were convinced they were getting Gortat. The Magic wait it out and then match Gortat's offersheet after all the big names are off the free agent board.
Wow. That might be the dirtiest chain of events I've seen in the NBA. Otis Smith just played Kobe to Cuban's Kate.
It kinda sucks too because the Mavs with Gortat might have been a team that had a chance against the Lakers. I thought Gortat was a great fit for Dallas.

The Magic needed to fill the backup 4/5 and the best option out there was Gortat for sure. I guess that was Fair Market Value for him.![]()
Glad we didn't make a play for him.
You guys are crediting fan1000 for copying something he saw elsewhere on the Internet?
This opens up some room in the budget to hire the finest food critics to help Cuban describe exactly how Otis Smith's ass tastes. And I hope Orlando isn't patting themselves on the back too hard about this one. The ghost of Grant Hill's ankle is going to exact all sorts of karmic retribution.
Watching mavsfan1000 predict this brings a joyous tear to my eye.
Ok. Just checking. Carry on.
After watching every other mav fan at him just for posting that....it's nice to see how everything worked itself out.
nice call mavsfan1000
Now just to finish all in a total very good way let's hope Blazers make a push for Odom.
For posting it.
Not writing it, not finding out from someone in the know, not digging deep enough to make his own assessment. He posted a link and now you look up to him?
Hey, everyone! The Spurs signed McDyess! Kiss my ass!

mavsfan1000 has my admiration...will he now break the news that Cuban is signing AI??? Now that might make this the best offseason ever...
These guys are still figuring out what went wrong...

Kids...kids..kids..what have I told you about reading stuff on the internets? Put down your mouse right now and go to your room. Congrats to those of you who don't read the internets for news but the rest of you should be ashamed of yourselves. Now hold my hand as I explain why the Spurs won't be signing McDyess and then you can go to sleepy sleep and have mommy tuck you in.
"Why would you post that?? you mavsfan1000, you're no mavs fan!!"
lol Mavs. Owned.
gotta give Mavsfan1000 his props for Gortat, and Hoopsworld for Dice.
Just because their guess was correct, doesn't mean it was anything more than a guess. They're still incompetent and ill-informed.
It was a well-informed guess. It just makes sense not to give up a big guy that is young. Especially with the magic losing 3 players this offseason.
