Orlando Magic general manager John Weisbrod reportedly received written death threats at his home about trading two-time NBA scoring champion Tracy McGrady.
Florida Today reported Wednesday that Weisbrod received two such threats since mid-June, and was forced to check into a hotel under an alias for two nights last week.

This is just silly, c'mon people, he did what he had to do to get something back for TMac, you know, the guy that said he wasn't coming back to Orlando? Some fans are just plain stupid when it comes to basketball affairs.

And I don't mean Nash or Patterson. I mean, why didn't I think of sending a death threat to the Orlando GM because we traded Sheed? That guy should be blamed for everything.
Again, just kidding. I actually think Orlando will be better this year. Could they be any worse?

Still, I can't figure out why Orlando made that trade! I know they could have gotten alot more! I mean damn, Paul Pierce, Zach Randolph, Ray Allen, a sign and trade for Kobe Bryant....but Steve Francis and Cuttino Mobley??? WTF!

Some GM's have a knee jerking reation to players and some don't. Either way they get called out for it, but this is just stupid for someone to send a death threat. 
Voice your displeasure here and build up our post count, gee whiz!

None of those trade scenarios you mentioned were plausible. As much as I dislike this guy, the fact that people are making death threats against him is just plain ridiculous.
