    Re: NBA Movement Central 2012 (Updates 1st PG)

    It's not the worst deal in the world, but I don't think it's a deal Orlando should be in a rush to accept. And at some point, Dwight is going to have to be open to going to other teams, since he can't sign with the Nets outright. Once that happens, better deals may become available.

      The anti Laker comments are pretty upsetting and nonsensical throughout this thread. We got Nash, wed be happy with Drew, but Dwights a better fit, especially now.

      Is he not?

      No reason to not want what's best for the team and not be complacent and just accept this is all that's allowed because its the Los Angeles Lakers. We have a trading chip that's well worth a Dwight swap, more so than any other package we've heard proposed.

      Either way we have Dwight or Drew, grateful to have either guy, Dwight would be ideal.

          People saying they can get a better deal, can't you say the same thing about Phoenix dealing Nash to the Lakers or the Hawks trading Joe Johnson?

          FWIW, it was reported last week that the Nets were willing to walk away from this whole thing but that Orlando called King back to start back up talks, not the other way around. So if he can find a better deal, then there's really no point to call us back, right?

              Pack, I think there was more than a fairshare of people saying PHX could have got a better deal and same with Joe Johnson...

              But you're right, it really sucks to be in Orlando's situation right now... they're stuck

                How do you know he doesn't want to be in LA? Why did he state two years ago that he wanted to play with Kobe? What about this year that he wanted Steve Nash traded to the Magic. What if he wants to be in LA? No one knows but him. So you can't say that he doesn't want to be LA.

                  Nash was a sign and trade, so maybe? He was a free agent at that point and therefore could have gone anywhere. They did Nash the favor of sending him where he wanted to go. Perhaps you could say that, but Phoenix didn't take on any cap and grabbed two firsts and two seconds. If Phoenix didn't trade Nash they lost him for nothing already, and those picks were valuable assets to LA as they have no picks to trade for four years now, for a team with few assetsn

                      If Orlando didn't want all that money tied up into crappy players, they should have thought ahead.

                      Hell, even when the Cavs were all in with LeBron, they had the foresight to schedule massive amounts of money to come off the books at the same time. Smith was just a moron for taking on so many bad contracts.

                      If someone is willing to take on J-Rich, Hedo, and Nelson while giving up a kings ransom for Dwight, I'm sure the Magic are all ears. But I wouldn't hold my breath.

                      The Nets are the best option for the Magic to get both assets and cap relief at the same time. It's the best solution to the idiocy of Otis Smith.

                        So we have two days left of free agency and the Mavs have agreed to terms with a whopping ZERO players so far.

                        NFL: Pittsburgh Steelers

                        NHL: Dallas Stars

                          When was the last time LA actually used picks to contend or gain ground?

                          They always either make trades or somehow gets someone to come here

                            For Johnson, did anybody say that? Most considered him un-tradeable. People were saying the Hawks GM should win executive of the year for moving him. For Nash, people were pissed the Suns helped out the Lakers, but nobody thought they could have got more for him. It was either trade him to the Lakers for their crap, the Knicks for their crap, or let him walk to Toronto. Neither of those situations are anything like Dwight.

                            As for the 2nd part, I don't know who reported that, and who knows what's really going on, but everything I've read makes it sound like the Nets are driving this.

                              Once I hear that the trade if official that Dwight is going to Brooklyn then am moving on till then I'll still have my hopes up.

                                I'm not sure where I made an imaginary conversation and I would trade for Dwight without a commitment if I was LA because I have a hard time believing he'd walk away. If he did so be it, but 20 mill and an extra year is quite a bargaining chip, not to mention sponsors and being on what I imagine would be a winning team (dont know how successful draw own conclusions).
