We had a long, enjoyable run, and I would like to thank every Orlando Magic fan who contributed to our small community on the web. This message board will be left online as an archive into the thoughts and minds of a group of Magic fanatics who lived through a 21-win season, the drafting of Dwight Howard, and an eventual NBA Finals appearance.

Local 6 news just reported we have made a final offer to hedo of 5yrs/45mill. So its between us and the raptors but they expect hedo to take the raptors offer. Atleast we did make a good attempt to resign him if he goes to toronto although i think 5 years is a little long for him |

Go get your money, Hedo. I am sure going to miss his dope postgame interviews. "We play hard and... uh... thank you buddy!" |

We did at least try. I guess $10 million is more important to him than winning. I'm not judging, but at least Portland would have given him a chance. Toronto might be a playoff team now. But what happens when Bosh leaves after this season? |

I think they're trying to do the same thing Cleveland is - put together a good team quickly and then use that to convince your star to stay. If they manage to get Turk and Marion, they are looking at a pretty solid front line, and they've certainly got some talent in their backcourt. |

Deezy on Real GM has posted this: "It's either $53M from Toronto or $45M from Orlando. I've been told Hedo all but agreed to take the Magic's offer." If Toronto doesn't offer more than $53, why would he take that over our offer when you factor in taxes, it really isn't much more at all, maybe $1 to $2 million per year. I guess if his wife REALLY wanted to go to Toronto, maybe that would be enough reason, but the money looks close right now. There's still hope. |

Consider it a long shot, but that guy I quoted did say that we offered the $45 million before it was announced anywhere else. He might actually have a source. I wouldn't get my hopes up, but by the time we get up in the morning, there is no telling what all will happen. |
