Dwight Howard almost a Net?

[candrew]

Well this trade is dead. Nets are screwed and Dwill is gone.

The trade isn't dead, it's in remission. The latest had Brooke Lopez and Gerald Wallace going to Orlando in a multi team trade with Turkoglu's horrid contract coming off The Magic's books. I don't care how great Howard is - that's pretty good for a player who has flat out demanded to be traded in a contract year. A deal will be made. Just not today.

Lakers have nothing to give either. I want Howard to stay in the East. I don't know if Howard and DW are enough to win it all but it is a great start to something. Can you imagine Jazz vs Nets in the NBA championship series? I think the league did the right thing with nixing the Lakers deal simply because of the financial risk they were taking besides the fact that all the players were older vets. I don't think the Clipper's package was great but the Hornets did get some young talent, picks and financial relieve when Kaman 's deal comes off the books.

Martin, Dragic, and a first round pick are old?

I bet the Hornets wish they kept Collison now, also IMO Gordon is better then any player NOH would've gotten in the LA trade and plus the assets they got are all younger and mostly cheaper (Kaman is a bit expensive but not overpaid) and they get a WAY better draft pick.

Didn't Stockton and Malone almost answer #2?

There really needs to be a third impact player---a James Worthy, Michael Cooper, etc. unless the two star players are just completely dominant like Shaq/Kobe.

for some reason, I wouldnt want the nets to fail while Dwill is there, not that I'm a Dwill fan (i WAS-when he was a jazzman), but I dont want the whole world realizing that the Jazz screwed the nets bigtime for the Dwill trade.

Jazz didn't screw nets. Nets screwed the Nets.

I still think the Nets have a very decent chance to retain DWill. They can pay him a max deal for 5 years, they are going to be in Brooklyn, new arena, filthy rich owner etc

If Dwill is gonna reject New jersey, what the hell he wants then?
He wants to set a new franchise himself and play there?
I am pretty sure he will stay there

If deron doesn't get to pair with Dwight then its going to be a disaster for him and the nets. Only dirk will be left to pair with and he is getting old.

All the rewards but none of the blame.

For Duron, it will always be "someone elses'" fault.
