Good grief... what a joke of a "team"

Star player an coach openly calling each other liars... then Dwight goes out and puts up a scoreless 1st half against a bunch of scrubs like the Knicks... Unreal. Van Gundy needs to go (I think he's a decent coach, but he is done there for sure).

I believe it's a mess because Dwight Howard can't make up his mind.

One day he's leaving, the next he is committed to staying.

There's a good ESPN INSIDER article somewhere that explains how Dwight Howard should take notice and learn from seeing the situation all of these other superstars are in after leaving their teams, vs Kevin Durant who chose to stay with the Thunder.

Howard should stay, but with his latest actions and attitude it's finally clear that he won't...

I always thought Howard was one of the "good guys" but this guy has buried his image now. Orlando should have traded this guy when they had too, at this point I wouldnt even want to keep him for next year. Its obvious Van Gundy is out because hes a great coach too but as with most cases the star player will win the war. The Magic have had there run with Howard Van Gundy and cast, its time to break up and rebuild now. The run is over.

When the Owners tell the Star player he can have his say in Coach and G.M you have a serious problem. And who wants to coach there, Howard is all most 100% sure to leave after next year, the owners are hoping if he picks the coach he will stay...Howard wants a BIG market, he is gone....A real mess!

Howard needed to go two years ago. He will not stay in Orlando. Orlando knows they are fucked if he leaves though but as it is it's better to part ways.
