Noblekane- Not true about Brook and the Nets
Billy King has plans in place that if Howard comes to them in FA, he would sign Howard, re-sign Deron, and then offer Brook 10 Mil a year to resign.
Now, if someone came with an offer sheet and front loaded the deal, then yeah he would not but I think it would not get there and Brook would sign before hand (I think 10 mil a year is more than fair for Brook)
Either way, the Nets are in a better position. Could they lose both guys. Yes. still a possibility. but I think they are trying for the FA route to keep Brook Lopez a Net as well.

you give up blake griffin and deandre jordan for dwight howard and ryan anderson.
your front court SUCKS on d dude. blake cant play defense to save his life. deandre jordan is a shot blocker and thats it.
dwight howard alone changes your team defense dramatically.
plus you get ryan anderson the poor mans kevin love.
you also get a decent shooting guard for your teams trash.
if you cannot see how a core of chris paul and dwight howard could mean championship contenders for years to come i dont know what to tell you.
but i guess you are one of them fans who just like flashy dunks huh?
dwight howard aint no slouch in that department either you know...

I have a strong hunch that KG and Ray Allen will be dealt.

Adding Howard along with Griffin/Paul is the only way I see us contending for a 'ship. Paul and Howard alone won't make us instant anything. We'll basically just be the West Coast Magic and them kats aint winning +!!% in the East right now is why Superman wants out in the first place.

Clipper fan here. I'd do it in a heartbeat, especially the way Blake and DJ have been playing. CP3 + Dwight, Anderson > CP3, Blake, DJ easily.

so if getting Howard makes you the "West Coast Magic", who on the "East Coast Magic" is Chris Paul?

Paul, Richardson, Butler, Anderson, Howard w/ Mo, Kmart and Evans filling out the rotation. That team could win the West. %+%$ a lob city, that !!+% not winning you any rings.

Disagree w. you. I don't want this team to be like the Hawks. Hawks = Big 3 era Wizards. It's a team that you can see what their celing is. Melo is not a player who is going to take this team to the next level. He's a knucklehead, not a winner, and I thought this team was going to at least try to change the culture. For as talented as he is, this would be a step backwards.

If that Dwight rumor to Houston is true then I would approve.
Even if he doesn't resign it kick starts rebuilding which is really what needs to happen. Win/win.

Considering you only comment on things related to the Clippers, I'm a little surprised you would say that. If Chris Paul and Dwight would be the same thing as Jameer Nelson and Dwight.. then I don't know what to tell you.Originally Posted by mjshoefanatic

Essential1 broke it down nicely for the Nets if Dwight walks, I also feel they could package w/e they have left for an all star caliber pf or sf but I wouldn't count Dallas out yet if the plan is to go there for Deron and Dwight. I bet Dal even played coy by offering something weak like Odom, Carter, Beaubois, Mahimi to ORL and they shot it down.

Not sure what thread to put this in (this one, Javle has done it again, or season thread)...but I opted for here...JUST because it's a nugget from Chris Broussard and his "sources."
In addition to his on-court struggles, it appears that Wizards center JaVale McGee is a bit delusional. Sources say he has informed the Wizards that he will be looking for a contract averaging around $14 million when he becomes a free agent after next season.

The Cavs are also in talks with the Hornets about swapping Antawn Jamison for Emeka Okafor and a first-round pick.
A second-round pick is likely all it would take for the Hornets to move Chris Kaman.
