Magic Need to Play Hardball with Howard?

Basketball News & NBA Rumors

Magic CEO Alex Martins said the club next season would not go through another Dwightmare (hey, sounds like a great title for a Sentinel e-book).

Martins might wish he had a mulligan on that one.

I’ll give him a do-over, no question.

What the Magic can’t do is paint themselves into a corner if they must trade Dwight Howard .

Relax the timetable. They can’t let the prospect of facing more uncomfortable controversy in an upcoming season pressure them into making a deal.
