Dwight to Nets might actually happen. What would their starting five look like? Williams, Johnson, Wallace, Teletovic, Howard?

If the Nets end up with Dwight and finish with a better season than the Knicks, I may have to commit a felony.

Jesus fucking christ. Stern should just pick a random team* out of a hat and assign him to a team at this point. This is getting ridiculous with all the cock teasing. Wake me up when the Magic grow a pair and finally deal this guy.

The Magic would be incredibly stupid to trade Dwight to the Eastern conference. Also, getting a bunch of 1st round picks from the Net's that will be bottom 3rd picks? GTFO.

I have no idea why Dwight's not being traded to Golden State.

 

[Charlie121]

Trade is supposedly near completion and involves 11 players! Update on original post.

Glad the Cavs are just stockpiling PFs. Thompson, Zeller, Humpries, Varejao...wtf.

Solid big man rotation. :yep:

 

[LiquidLarry2GhostWF]

Magic get Brook Lopez, max him out, and get three first round picks.
Nets get Dwight Howard and I am not sure if they can do it, but a random big contract like Hedo or JRich.
Cavs get Kris Humphries, Marshon Brooks and something else.

That would probably be what the deal looks like.

 

[TheImmortalGoud]

Magic would have to be getting Brooks.

fixed

This seeing how the Cavs just drafted Dion Waiters.

It's Cleveland...they're taking Humphries off the Nets' hands and probably giving up a pick that goes to Orlando.

Orlando is fucking stupid if they agree to that shit. They'd essentially be trading Dwight for Lopez. The Magic would be better off just letting Dwight walk in that case.

Let him walk for nothing in return, or get an all-star caliber C, an up and coming SG in Brooks, and several picks.........HMMMMM

How does the crowd feel about option #2?

If they are getting Brooks then it's a good deal. Empire's post was suggesting they wouldn't. Also, those picks aren't worth shit.

 

[Primetime]

4+ picks should develop a decent role player. Either way, getting Lopez alone is a good deal for them rather than letting him walk.

 

[TheImmortalGoud]

You might be able to develop a couple bench players with those picks, and Lopez is incredibly overrated.

 

[ralaw]

Forget this Lopez (meh) and multiple late round trash picks for Howard...........If I'm the Magic I trade for Bynum and call it a day. Bynum is a franchise guy and Orlando is a solid franchise. I think they could convince him to stay. His biggest issue in LA is that he's behind Kobe and doesn't get the touches............in Orlando he'd get more than enough.
