I actually don't miss those Rockets throwbacks posted up there

Loved the ones before that though. The pinstripes...damn...those were ugly. Those Bulls, Hawks, and Kings

i love that uniform because of Steve Francis, but the Rockets current uniform

Raptors wearing their 90's throwbacks for Hardwood Classics this season

Unless they plan on releasing authentic versions of all the throwbacks then IDC

Don't they usually?

 

[pmatic]

The Jazz sign Randy Foye.

Don't they usually?

they used to back when the jerseys were so popular but now they usually just release a swingman b/c not enough people would buy the authentic for adidas to turn a profit.

 

[Ja's 2¢]

The Jazz sign Randy Foye.

that means bell and miles is gone and burks would be starting with foye off the bench?

 

[dakid23]

at them bringing back the Raptors and Suns jerseys.

 

[jordanshorts23]

0shot at CP and D12. CP won't leave the Clippers. And Dwight would sign with ATL before he goes to or stays with Houston.
Only way Rockets land D12 for a year rental is take 2 of 3 (1. Trade all picks. 2. Take on **** contracts. 3. Trade all young talent).

i actually changed it to just jeremy lin at the 1 ....forgot about asiks offer sheet too ...smh  

with lin/asik ....are they out as well

GS released custom authentics when they wore HWC's a couple of years ago. I'm not really sure about this previous season though.

Christmas Uniforms

WTH is that :x . Looks like satin sheets.

yeah years ago you could be able to buy all HWC authentics. Should have copped some . This past season people wanted the heat flamingo jersey but only swings released.

 

[datznasty]

yeah, you know why? cause he thinks he can build another okc.. since he was there, now he wants to bring that same mentality to orlando, but he's not realizing he's screwing up his own team and is gonna wear out his welcome very soon

The irony is, the OKC thing to do would have been to take the Rockets offer. The first thing Presti did when Bennett bought the Sonics then hired him was trade salary (Ray Allen, Rashard Lewis, etc.) to get picks and get younger.

 

[mmg]

i ******g hate adidas, god they always do too much


Uncle Drew shall be copped in that cavs throwback though

 

[Ja's 2¢]

Yes the magic are screwing up right now thinking a better deal will come through.

Question why did the new GM give Jameer a contract for 3/$20 mil? I was scratching my head on why you would give that dude a contract when you trying to rebuild. Jameer is in no way part of the future. :x

from what all the orlando magic fans say is that the owner loves the dude?


magic are ******g *** backwards , that franchise is a joke.

 

[duba169]

you guys keep crapping on hennigan i bet he makes out like a bandit

 

[MVP]

He missed his opportunity to "make out like a bandit" the deals will only get worse from here. Everybody is going to lowball him, because the longer he waits the more desperate ORL becomes seeing as Dwight will walk after the year. Whatever deal he could have gotten with HOU/LA/CLE/BK is no longer going to be plausible cause these teams cap situations aren't going to allow them to take back the contracts the Magic so desperately want to get rid of. Those teams squads will be locked in for the most part when the season starts. Teams desperately want Dwight now and are willing to throw half their team (HOU) or give you the picks and or prospects and cap relief you want (HOU/CLE/LA) or just another serviceable replacement (LA) and you just have no clue what you want to do.

He's an idiot and has screwed himself and the Magic franchise for years to come.

 

[bigmike23]

yall really act like the rockets or lakers wont give him what he wants today, a week from now, 1st game of the season or at the trade deadline.

 

[hood17]

May need to cop a HWC jersey

 

[finallyfamous]

Who is all wearing the HWC's? All the pics posted because that'd be

 

[SneakerProSr.]

Yall really think Dwight Howard is going to leave 28 million dollars on the table?

Dwight will play anywhere he is traded unless its somewhere like the Bobcats.

Dude is a big man who had back surgery he going to look for the most guaranteed money he can get period.

Houston should trade for him and Orlando should take the trade.

 

[airjordan jb23]

at all the HWC jerseys for this season. A lot of classics

 

[mmg]

It's not the point of Dwight being traded, it was getting the most bang for your buck and blowing up the team, fine they move Dwight, but are still stuck with hedo + jrich for 2 years.

 

[solarius49]

I swear Jameer Nelson is one of the most hated on good point guards in the league. Dudes act like hes Smush Parker or Allen Ray or something lol

 

[denni5themenace]

what MMG said.

i really don't see a better offer coming around than sending 2 bad contracts out along with dwight for cap relief, picks, and young talent. thats a homerun trade right there, esp if they get lottery picks from cleveland/houston.

as time passes, the likelihood of teams taking on bad contracts will decrease.

do you guys think GM's are getting frustrated with orlando? the way they have handled this situation with all of the "leaks" for leverage? you think its bad form and they aren't following some unwritten etiquette when it comes to trades?

I feel like you like terrible players between this and the Louis Williams/Jamal Crawford discussion. I'd take him as a backup though
