08:08 AM ET 04.13 | Dwight Howard on Thursday again denied he had asked the Magic front office to fire Stan Van Gundy this season. [Howard] did acknowledge that he has, in the past, make that suggestion when he was "upset" but ultimately return to management and back off that demand. Howard made his denial today in a one-on-one interview with ESPN's Hannah Storm. ... [Howard:] I haven't said anything this season -- to anybody in management about, you know, you need to do this with Stan, or vice versa; they never said we'll do this for you. Storm: Have you said it in past seasons? Howard: Have I said it before? Ahh ... Being upset, yea, I've said it, you know, but I've always come back and said I'll do a better job, I'll take more of a hit."

Looks like Howard asks for Stan to be fired every year.

Here's whats amazing.........people on this site gives SVG all kinds of kudos as though he's some kinda walking legend, when Superstars (although loudmouths) such as Shaq/Suppie have said and continues to say SVG lacks. Lets just continue here to do what most always do....give SVG a pass.......undeservingly!

Not sure what site you're referring to, but probably 90% of the posters here bash svg all the time

Yeah with.....he took'em to the finals, ec finals, good job SVG, or maybe.....he's a good coach and he'll get a job anywhere, the Magic are lucky to have' em. Some bashing....selective memory, 90%...really? Not quite sure what site you're referring to. Seems as though we both got these sites mixed up.........don't think so!
