LMAO! Nets fans can't be that stupid. No way we take him back for Howard. In fact if the Nets get Johnson and resign Williams, they are completely out of the Howard running. Howard couldn't even sign their straight up any more, unless he took the MLE, which he won't.


Lol Dwight can't be that stupid to sue the magic for blackmailing him into signing the waiver, after he was gonna sign it on the plane and Otis told him to sleep on it, then he drove himself to the arena to sign, then he himself signed, then at the presser told us a cool story about loyalty...

Wait, he actually is that dumb... Kids, get your education... Or at least work on your common sense

Oh they must still think Otis is our GM. Maybe we should let them know he was fired.

I'm not saying they would DO it, but I think most of us would.


You wanted to include Hedo and OKC is not doing 4 players for 1, they'd have serious issues filling out their roster.

Do not get me wrong, other then a trade with the Clippers this is my favorite option. Unfortunately it is very unrealistic.

Code: Select all

If the #Nets trade for Joe Johnson, they’ll owe Johnson & Gerald Wallace a combined $129 million over the next 4 seasons.

Thats not bad. Is Al Holford your center for five years though. Not saying it would be a bad option but thats a long commitment.

I dont know much credit we give him for it but at least Dwight opting in allowed rental teams to be involved. I would love a deal with OKC but I dont think they have any doubt that 12 wouldn't resign, where as Houston might be thinking that he might. BIG difference if you are a rental team. I'm sure Dream is all cued up and ready to chat with him about staying.

In the end I see him goint to Nets because the world just works that way sometimes. :evil: I would like to see houston. It would have been nice to have those picks on draft night.
