Stan Van Gundy confirms Dwight Howard asked Magic to fire him
RT @Ian_OConnor: Stan VanGundy at shootaround this AM: Management told me story is true that Howard asked for him to be fired (WOWZA)
His exact quote "Yes, i am aware Dwight asked for me to be fired."
Yah, for the story breaking before Knick game. Orlando should be a huge mess.

DRAMA IN ORLANDO
From Frank Isola @FisolaNYDN
[QUOTE]Stan Van Gundy says it "looks good" for Dwight Howard playing vs. Knicks. Jameer Nelson is game time. Ryan Anderson is out
Stan agrees that teams don't want to face Knicks in playoffs because Carmelo "scares the hell out of you."
Wow. Stan says he knows Dwight Howard asked him to be fired
Now that all the cards are on the table, I'm wondering if Stan is coaching tonight. He just outed the clown prince of the NBA
Dwight's goal was to get Stan Van Gundy fired but not have blood on his hands. Too late brother
Dwight Howard, moments after putting his arm around Stan, denies he wants him fired. Wow, crazy times in Orlando
Dwight now denying he asked for Stan to be fired. Asked reporters to give up their source. Hey genius, the source is Stan
Oh Dwight, you've been outed by your coach. And in the moment of truth, you neither cracked jokes or were honest.
I think there is a 70 percent chance that Patrick Ewing makes his coaching debut tonight. Unless Dwight undermines him first[/QUOTE]
Re: SVG Confirms Howard asked for him to be fired
Man. I'd love to hear what goes on in that locker room. It has to be more awkward than an episode of The Office.
Re: SVG Confirms Howard asked for him to be fired
Lol. Dwight will never win a championship as "The Man"

Damn! I thought they were all hugs and rainbows in Orlando since Dwight decided to stay. Guess not.

Source close to Van Gundy: "I think Stan's been tired of having to talk around it when asked about it...tired of going along with a lie."

If there was ever time for a "Shit Just Got Real" meme, this is it.
Re: SVG Confirms Howard asked for him to be fired
It's sad it's gotten to this. Everything Dwight says ends up being leaked somehow and now the coach knows he will eventually be fired. But I think SVG could care less because he is still getting paid his 9 million or whatever dollars Otis owes him. I think the Magic need more then just a new coach to make them a contender.:lol

It would be pretty funny if SVG was fired and JVG was hired. :lol

Dear god, please let this happen.
Re: SVG Confirms Howard asked for him to be fired
Am I the only one who thinks SVG is a good coach?

Re: SVG Confirms Howard asked for him to be fired
And then Dwight went up to him and hugged him, not knowing he just confirmed the rumors :oldlol:
