But this is already a PR nightmare for Orlando, so they will let Donovan walk away, they have to look bigger then him in this situation, maybe let the NBA be perceived as the bad guy by banning him, which is a slap on the wrist essentially.
The Magic need the fans of Northern Florida behind them and by holding Donovan a hostage or playing hardball will do nothing but make them look like the evil empire versus the good guys in the situation by letting him loose.
Good points. Orlando's hands are tied in this and they are basically screwed either way. Worse yet, it sends a bad message within the organization and makes the job opening look like a bad situation. I feel bad for those guys in Orlando. I wonder if something like this would make a guy like Dwight Howard think twice before re-signing a huge deal?
