The rumor that is all over the web right now is that Danny offered Perk and Walker for the 2nd pick. It originated with Felger and Tanguay on Sports tonight with this exchange: " Felger speaking: We heard a rumble today, just a little rumble. Danny’s throwing a bunch of stuff against the wall as he likes to do. Memphis sitting there at number two. Perk and was it JR Giddens?" Then Tanguay corrected him saying it was Walker instead of Giddens.Everyone who knows me knows how I feel about Perk. I love this guy. I love his work ethic, his earnestness, his willingness to play his role to a T and to be an enforcer. He is also one of the biggest bargains out there. He is also only 24 and has improved every season he has been in the league. He began as a project and is now one of the best defensive centers in the league as evidenced by how well he handled Dwight Howard in the playoffs this year. If this was indeed the offer, Danny is more than likely targeting Hasheem Th...

Sportz' Finals Bullet Points

DWIGHT HOWARD: I have never ... NEVER ... seen a player built up and crushed down so quickly. During the Magic's series with the Cavaliers, everyone was on the Howard bandwagon. He was deemed the most dominant center in the NBA and placed in that super-duper-star status. During the Finals, his flaws were exposed and, apparently, numerous. He has no moves, he has no shot...

Magic's Man of Steel not strong enough in Finals

Via CBSSports.com  |  June 15, 2009
For Dwight Howard, this is a learning experience. The Lakers teach him how far he has to go during their 99-86 title-clinching victory. Howard needs to acquire more of a Kobe killer instinct, Gregg Doyel says.

2009 NBA Finals (Game 5 Recap)

Via MVN  |  June 15, 2009
#1 Los Angeles Lakers 99 (WEST) @ #3 Orlando Magic 86 (EAST) (Lakers win series, 4-1) It was a long wait. But, finally, the Lakers are the champs once again. It's their first since 2002. Let's go over the game first, though. Admittedly, I missed the first quarter... and that seemed to be the only time the Magic were in the game. In the 2nd quarter, the Lakers went on a 16-0 stampede...

Hocus Pocus - Nuggets lose to Magic

Via Nugg Doctor  |  June 16, 2009
(Boulder-CO) This game was like a bad episode of the Twilight Zone. In the early goings you didn’t really understand what was going on and towards the end you were disinterested in the outcome. That’s exactly how I would describe the Nuggets as they conceded, 106-88, to the Magic who continue to terrorize their opponents on the road where they are now 17-5.The Nuggets shooting...

Via True Hoop  |  June 14, 2009

They were painfully close to taking a 3-2 series lead home to Orlando when they led by 10 point with fewer than five minutes remaining in Game 4 of their conference...
