I'll be happy when this is over and we get to watch and listen to basketball instead of what so and so is gonna do.
I'm looking forward to seeing what Nicholson and Ayon can do and any new pieces we bring in.

New coach as well which I'm gonna guess will prob be Malone just a guess but looking forward to a new system we prob won't win much but as a Tampa Bay Bucs fan rebuilding can be fun when the right pieces are in place.

ANyone else find it funny that its the CAVS that are ones helping the nets? After all the crying dan gilbert did about lebron, he goes out of his way to be part of a trade that helps form another superteam

Guess he really thinks the nets are gonna beat the heat and prevent lebron from winning anymore rings

Is this seriously going to happen? Bynum isn't going to walk away from 25 million. Call his bluff.

I just have to imagine that the rental teams just weren't there. The offer we got for Ryan and I imagine the rental teams offering similar packages.

Magic don't want Brooks or Humphries

so what are we going to end up with? 6rpg Lopez and Puke Walton?


hmm. Maybe that was why we were talking to ATL. Didn't they want Brooks in the JJ trade? We were probably trying to get a pick out of them or something. Just a guess. I am puzzled about all of this right now.
Woj is the new Bucher. Shams is the new Woj. Espn is the new TMZ. The NBA is the new WWE.

Dan is doing this in hopes of screwing LeBron and to screw the Lakers. I can't believe the Magic would go for this.

I could never say that about KG. Even though he is a great player. In some way even in his prime he is Joakim Noah with a jump shot and a little better post game. Outside of that they have the exact same skill set.

How can we not want Brooks? if we're dealing with the Nets then he has to be in the deal...the Kid has star potential IMO.........

I might be in the small minority, but I will be SO happy as long as dwight is not a laker. Maybe cause I live in Los Angels, but laker fans are sooooo fxcking obnoxious you guys from the Ozone have no idea. I still haven't fully recovered from Shaq going to the fakeshow years ago. The idea of the lakers getting the 2 best centers in the last 20 years from the magic stings. Sigh, if you guys could only see what I have to go through on a daily basis from Laker fans being a Magic fan.

I can't stomach paying Lopez 58 million over 4 years. I just can't.

This. Brooks and Bynum are not even that different offensively and they are both slouches on D. Plus at least Lopez still has cartilage in his knees.

Just wish the nets actually had something good to offer us :-?
