From my hometown newspaper, the Newark Star Ledger:

Quote:
 
Amid reports that the Magic had a deal that would send Francis to Denver for Kenyon Martin and Earl Watson comes this revelation, from a high-ranking Orlando official:

The Nuggets never wanted Francis at all, primarily because he and Carmelo Anthony can't stand each other. And the rumor about K-Mart makes little sense, if only because it would put the Magic -- clearly in cost-cutting mode with a $73 million payroll -- in the same salary cap hell.


Otis is turning into a human smokescreen. Credit to our boy Otis! Throwing other offers out there might have made the Penny deal go easier. I KNEW he told the Sentinel that lie about Odom!

He truly is doing great. I only worry that our joy in turning over our cards to show we were bluffing might screw us in future deals. I dont think it should be too bad though. NFL coaches use tricks like this all the time.

What I like most is not only did Otis make us younger with a ton of potential, but we are young AND balanced. This isnt the hawks who have a hundred small forwards on there team.
