Happy Thanksgiving

Heyyyyy World!!! We had a really tough game last night against Miami and tonight we’re back in the A-T-L to face the Hawks. It’s kind of messed up because we’re on a back to back and the Hawks have had four days off before playing us.

But I don’t even care because I like playing on the holidays. When you think about it, they only pick the best teams to play on TV on the holidays. So the fact that we’re playing on Thanksgiving and again on Christmas in a few weeks is OK with me because that’s a sign of respect for our team.

It’s actually good because I’ll be back at the crib in Hot-lanta today with my family, eating some good Southern food for Thanksgiving. Ya’ll may not know it or not but my mama’s chit’lins are one of my favorites to eat for Thanksgiving. Chit’lins are what have made my muscles as big and sexy as they are now.

But I can’t eat too much with a game later in the night. This is a business trip and not a homecoming. We really need this one, especially after the way we lost to Miami. I can’t believe we let them get those two offensive rebounds down the stretch, especially one off an airball!!!

Playing Miami, I got to see my boy, D-Wade. If there’s anybody in the NBA not on my team that I’d like to play with it would be him. We’ve talked about it some at the Olympics a couple of years ago and over the summer when we were shooting our movie together.

We both really love our own teams and teammates, but it is something that we’ve dreamed about. He’ll be a free agent this summer, along with Bron and C-Bosh, so I’ll be right there with everybody trying to see where they all wind up. It’s going to be really interesting to see. Maybe they can all come to O-town and we can build a dynasty. Now that would shock the world, huh!!!!

We’ll, ya’ll have a good Thanksgiving. I have so much to be thankful for, on and off the court, and I’m thankful that you guys are always here to support me. Peace out.

    Tough game man. There were mistakes on our magic team that will be disappearing as the season goes on. I already see the signs of the team bringing it together. I’ll say it for you to save you $15,000 that the officiating was a load of garbage. There was more traveling/carrying on the Heat then your plane trip today. Although, I prefer to be the underdog to the officials than the LeBron that wins from bad calls. If it’s only one way or the other I’d prefer to watch you guys overcome the odds. It makes the win all the sweeter and better yet it is proven that without a doubt that the team is worthy. Can’t wait for the game tonight. Have a happy thanks giving D12!

  7. Dwight, Have a great Thanksgiving. We are Thankful that you are part of our Magic. Tough loss last night….that just means you guys will have to blow them out tonight. Thanks for your thoughts for the day.

    Hi Dwight, that was a nail biter at the end..but thats okay Miami is a tough team and they wasnt gonna let you get the win, without a fight..it was just simple missed shots..on Orlando end and then they got those rebounds…
    But today is a new day, this is your hometown so you have to take it in Atlanta. They are a pretty good team and they are gonnna want to win at home.
    Right when your a good team you get to play on the Holidays where everybody gets to see you..Thats the benefits of making it to the Finals…your worth watching.

    That would be exciting if Orlando got any of those free agents, your team is already good…You all would be unstoppable…you seem like you get along with everybody and you work well with all different personalities, because your goal is to just win a championship.

    Well get your grub on and have a great game tonight…
    We will be wathcing you…We love U…

  9. DomG says:

  12. Dorothy says:

    That would be something everybody would love to see… DWade and DHoward playing in Orlando. I would buy my season ticket as soon as I hear that news!!!

  13. bramjot says:

    Happy Thanksgiving Dwight!
    Since you’re back home, beat the Hawks tonight! Plus really try to get D-Wade to Orlando. That’ll shut Boston up for sure.

  14. cnakeesha says:

    Happy Thanksgiving to you, too. Enjoy your meal with mama. Chit’lins build your muscles…hilarious! Whatever works…your doing something right, your muscles are quite sexy. Rally your team, bring your A game and get the W in the A…

  15. rachakaloislane says:

    Don’t be tryna stack your team!…lol At least give us Bosh! He won’t have so far to move. I’m pouting cause I didn’t get me no chit’lins. I did’t feel like cleaning them and no one else in my family that I know of did either. I bet my older sister is holding out on me. Imma give her the sad face and I’ll get’em. If all else fails, tell yo mama save me some of hers. That is if you don’t eat them all! greedy butt. Y’all beat the Hawks tonight. I’ll be rooting for you sending good vibes. @sweetcommunion5 will be there rooting for you in the stands. I told her to give you a big huge for me. Happy Thanksgiving! Peace and Love baby! Rachel

    Happy Thanksgiving Breh, Take out all the anger from last night and put that to Atlanta. Good luck D man!

  17. Dr. James Naismith says:

    Dwight,

    You should be ashamed. How about coming to play EVERY game. Quit worrying about how to spend your money and live up to your potential. The greats puke(Bird, Magic, MJ, Wilt) at your passion for the game.

    If I was SVG, I’d be chewing your a!! out.

    You’re a woos and you need to be a leader.

    J. Will and R. Anderson at least showed up last night.

  18. Joe says:

    Happy Thanksgiving to you and yours!
    Real tough loss last night but you guys will rebound from it, that’s why there’s 82 games in the season:)
    I’ll be up close in personal tonight in Atl, 1st row right behind your bench, supporting you and the team.
    Go Magic!!!

    BTW – I would love to see D-wade and/or C-Bosh in a Magic Uniform next Yr, what’s a salary cap anyway…Tell Otis to make it happen.

    Happy to catch the game last night on espn. The cameras showed a little girl on her dad’s shoulder’s with a pink+white jersey w/no. 12 showing her love for you. So, here’s mine: 1) You are an amazing rebounder. Even when there’s no one else at the end of the court, there you are, working hard to keep the ball in Magic’s hands. 2) You have just proven you can hit from the line — for 2 in a row under pressure (you tied the score at that point). Lovin’ the way that looks on you…can we see more of that, please….?? 3) Happy Thanksgiving! I am grateful that always come here to share your thoughts on a game, whichever way it goes. I’ll be asking Santa if maybe you’ll have a teammate or two guestblog about their thoughts on a game sometime.

    Happy Thanksgiving Dwight. Tough loss last night. What happened to the Pick & Roll? Vince is a great iso player but he could use a pick every now and again. Anyway, good luck against the Hawks tonight.

  33. J the Drafter says:

    Good game. I’m glad to see we rebounded from a poor first half to grab a strong win over the Hawks. But Dwight, something is clearly bothering you and its affecting your on-court play. For the sake of your team and fans, will you talk with someone you trust and try to come to grips with whatever’s bothering you?

  34. sweetcommunion5 says:

    Great game vs Hawks. I was worried abt my MAGIC during 1st half. I dont know what was said to you guys at half time but you picked up the pace and shined like Champions during the last stretch of the game. Great Job~You and the Team came through when it mattered the most! BTW: I had me some Chit-lins for the holiday too (sprinkled with Hotsauce and a side of Dirty Rice=Yummmmmy) :-)

  35. betty song says:

  36. Menni says:

  37. Brownruth says:

    GLAD YOU GUYS WERE ABLE TO BEAT THE HAWKS. I WATCHED THAT GAME WHILE EATIN’. AND SAW SOME FOOTBALL TOO.

  38. Eileen M says:

    Hey Dwight, Looks like I’m a few days behind but… DWade would be great but we dont want LeBron!! We dont need his ego or attitude in O-town!!
    Great win tonight! Hope you had a great Thanksgiving!!
