David Aldridge made a good point; OKC should offer Ibaka and Harden for him. They would be great future for Orlando and i doubt Dwight wouldn't wanna re-sign and play alongside KD & Rusty unless he's desperate to be the 1st scoring option, cause that won't happen with these two on the team lol

ibaka is just as good a defender, and harden is better on offense...not as great a deal as it would seem at first glance.

So more or less since Ibaka is "just as good of a defender" & you claim Dwight doesn't have an offensive game that impacts like James Harden. You'd almost go as far to say that Dwight for Ibaka straight up wouldn't be that much of a difference..lol.

dwight for a ibaka straight up would be a huge improvement for okc...but losing ibaka AND harden wouldnt be all that great.

A lot of the LeBron hate I think comes from the fact that he did that to his home team. I agree though, Dwight has been acting like an enormous bitch, I would hate him so much if I was an Orlando fan.

He is already. What he did was 10x worse because he's been doing this for over a year (before that he was avoiding such attention) and got a gm and coach fired in the process.

This is crazy, I doubt Dwight would accept a trade to Houston or Atlanta. Dwight in LA would make for an amazing LA-MIA finals, wow.

i think it's a win/win situation for both teams anyway. only concern OKC may have is that another big star on the roster could ruin team chemistry they've build.

shit, i think wherever he goes he'll fuck team chemistry up anyways...

I'd say more hate comes from him letting everyone's hopes down. Bulls fans, Cleveland fans, Knick fans, Net fans, anybody who had a realistic chance all hate him because he didn't pick them & everyone else hates him because teams like the Hawks, Pacers & Rockets, etc. weren't even thoughts.

Anyway, I heard the Magic realize that they have this whole season to make the move. So even if they have Dwight sitting on the bench until the deadline, the goal for them this season is to get the best possible deal in order. Which will still likely be the Nets come January 15th.

lmao @ the thought of Dwight sitting in street clothes all year OR EVEN BETTER not being invited to the games but yet still part of the team  (i.e. Keyshawn in 2003)

i almost hope this happens

I mean it's only natural you want to believe the one that is more degrading. I don't think there is a person on the forum that would hold you down as an unbiased critic.

So all my Knick fans friends hate him because they feel bad for Cleveland? Not because they were chanting MVP for him IN THE GARDEN while he was still in Cleveland? Logical.

no, because he pulled a BITCH-MOVE, and handled the whole process with no class, dignity, or respect whatsoever. u really think he's hated because people cant have them on their team? smfh...u really need 2 pull his cock out ya throat. the dude simply showed the basketball world how not to move during the whole "i'm takin my talents to south beach" fiasco, and if u think he's hated because of any other reason, then your retardation level is unmeasurable.

LOL. So you think my Knick fan friends would hate him & "not want him" if he said he was "taking his talents to the Big Apple"? Because they wouldn't of appreciated how he "handled it"? I'm not defending the way he went about it. Even he admits he could of went about it differently. But at the end of the day, everybody is mad because he picked Miami over them. The Nets & Knicks were clearing cap space for years prior just to make him a realistic offer.

We live in a world where a majority of people root for villains. But you don't root for villains who fucked you over too. He would of been hated by select cities if he stayed in Cleveland. His entire last season was fan base after fan base trying to recruit him by cheering for him. After the season every team made "LeBronComeTo"insert city".com" websites. Don't front like he wasn't the most desired free agent of all-time.

obviously, if he plays for your team, u'll overlook his bitchassness...but when he plays for a different team, that bitchassness magnifies. if he stayed in Cleveland, he would still be beloved overall, as he was prior to his lame antics. his behavior had a lot more to do with the hatred he's received than the fact that he left.
