Video: Van Gundy Says That Dwight Asked That Ownership Fire Him

As hard as Orlando is trying to keep Howard, expect SVG gone at the end of season and Orlando will be scrambling to land another free agent to keep Howard happy. If not, Plan B will be resorting to trade him before next season's trade deadline to get any value they can before he leaves for nothing in free agency.

I dont think it is possible for Dwight to annoy me any more this season. My god he is the biggest baby in the NBA- he cares WAAAY too much about how people view him. First he wanted to go to the lakers, then decided against it because he didnt want to be too much like Shaq. Jesus man just make up your damn mind on whether you are staying or leaving.

Oh, and by the way, Stan Van Gundy has been awesome this year. What the fug did you expect him to do when Ryan Anderson is your 2nd best player and the only other legitimate NBA players on the team are Jason Richardson (old, hasnt played well), Hedo Turkoglu (also old), Jameer Nelson (terrible this year), JJ Redick, and Glen Davis. Oh, and your best player has been involved in an ongoing soap opera the entire season too. Its a bunch of one-dimensional 3 point shooters + Dwight, and yet they somehow have the 4th best record in the East.

If you're going to demand someone be fired, why not the GM Dwight?

It is a longshot at best but if he is available this summer AND we get Anthony Davis in the draft, we may be able to get him here. He is a good Xs & Os coach and that is what Bismak, Kemba and Davis would need to help them progress.

Wont be the first time a superstar NBA player gets a coach run out of town, or the last.

Sometimes it works out, see Magic Johnson/Paul Wewsthead/Pat Riley. Lakers had a lot of success under Westhead but the team didn't like him and their Superstar spoke out.

A happy clubhouse keeps your star in town. We'll see what the Magic decide.

    • I just want to see a big guy with an NFL certified cannon arm suit up for the panthers again. To me, it will show that they are at least  trying to take the QB position in the direction it needs to go.   Will he throw picks? Yes. Probably a hell of a lot, but (for now) I’m strangely ok with that… for now. I at least need to see a dude that CAN make the throws with some semblance of accuracy.  This is the time to see what the QB whisperer is made of. The offensive talent is there. It’s certainly better than most rookie/journeymen QBs will ever step in to. If he can get a random dude playing at a JAG level, then I might be sold.  Andy could really surprise in the Buffalo game. He (for now) still has enough arm for Tet and XL to show what they’ve got, but we all know it’s only going to be good for 3-4 games, max. He has vet savvy, and that does account for a lot. He also has a full week of practice with all the snaps to prepare.  My best case scenario going forward: Andy plays the next 2 games nobly (winning one would be a huge bonus) giving White a chance to learn some of the playbook and develop chemistry with the players. Serviceable Andy turns in to old man Andy in game 3 and White takes the field after halftime.  A high ankle sprain (lol, sure it is) is an injury that can buy the team a LONG time for BY to ride the pine…. Maybe even IR. His peak trade value is now. Get what they can for this albatross. He’s now shown that he can be a mid level backup which does hold a significant value for the right team.  Not even in my wildest dreams do I see White being anything more than a JAG, but that’s ok. JAGs with a big arm make great bridge QBs that at least won’t have your play makers stagnating. Keeping BY under center is a 100% recipe for stagnating high ceiling (Tet/XL) dudes and/or not allowing them to take the next step in their development. Why even practice the good half of the playbook if the QB can’t make the throw? After a while, you’ve now got high ceiling guys who can only run a limited route tree. No thanks.
