NBA owns the Hornets.
NBA doesnt own the NETS or MAGIC .
Dwight is dictating where he wants to go but that decision falls to the MAGIC owner not the NBA/Stern.
Im guessing the NBA has potential buyers for the team so they want to keep a superstar in there.

Why not? Lakers can offer way more for Dwight Howard than the Nets. Bynum + LO > Brook + picks. Orlando still has Jameer Nelson, pair him up with Lamar Odom and Bynum that isn't too bad, expecially if you other options is Brook or nothing....As for CP3, I look at it like this. NYK was his other option, but now they have no money since they tied it up with Chandler where does that leave CP3 to go? Let him play out his contract in NO and then if he wants he can join the Lakers as a free agency. Dwight Howard should have always been the prize, his kind of talent is so rare right now in the NBA and would complement Kobe a lot better than CP3. We have won championships with Derek Fisher, Ron Harper, Brian Shaw, Ty Lue, and Jordan Farmer, give me a dominant center side by side with Pau and i'll be content. That is my rant....back to updating twitter and seeing what is happening.

I think LO understands the business aspect of it.
However to be told your traded then no your not. How do you take that with a smile?
I'd take that personal. Your boss tells you to leave then oh wait, you have to stay we don't have a choice. Sounds like an environment that I'd want to play in.

Dwight can still happen. But for now, it seems our roster is set the way it is. Are the Knicks still waiving Billups?

If that is the case, how would fellow fans feel if we acquired Okafor in the deal for Paul. I haven't looked at the logistics to see if contract's match, but that might be most beneficial for us now all things considered.

I would like Okafor and maybe trade him for Howard by the deadline.

Why even re-visit the trade? Stern is just going to veto it again.
