Houstons wants Bynum because they feel he would absolutely resign with them.

Lakers wants Dwight.

Rob wants picks and young players. Lamb/White/Martin/picks.

Perfect.

Another thing that i was thinking, if we get TOR and HOU's pick we could get 2 Top5 picks. Imagine if Bynum gets injured, Houston would be really bad and cash in for us!

Rockets fan here and I think you guys are a little confused about the Rockets first round pick situation. The Hawks currently own our pick for next year if we make the playoffs otherwise we keep it because it is lottery protected. But because of the Ted S. rule we can't currently trade our 2014 first round pick either so the first Rockets' first round draft pick that you guys could receive would be for the 2015 draft.

#Magic are showing no indications that they want to deal with the #Nets whatsoever anymore. They'll still listen. But it won't happen.

Isn't this just a fan?

Ok, somebody catch me up.
The latest is Houston gets Bynum, LAL gets DH and we get young players and picks?
You guys prefer this over us getting Bynum?

Orlando gets:
Toney Douglas, Harrelson, Jordan (FRom Knicks Trade), Kevin Martin, Jeremy Lamb, Royce White,
Marcus Morris
Toronto 2013 unprotected lottery pick
Houston 2013 unprotected lottery pick

Rockets get:
Andrew Bynum
PG Chris Duhon
PG Ramon Sessions
SG Jason Richardson

Lakers get:
Dwight Howard
Courtney Lee

Makes sense, but i'd say Duhon to the Lakers and Q gets envolved somehow too.

As long as we get a package consisting of Lamb/Ebanks/Tor pick/Hou 2014 pick i'm happy.

Maybe they could agree that HOU would send him for someone by August, that's my wish, but i know, its very unlilkely!

i want parsons in any deal coming back to orlando lol... not cause i think he'll ever be anything more than a glue guy, but because it would be awesome rooting for him on my team and his favorite team growing up... plus the idea of someone i have known since 6th grade playing for the magic is pretty awesome

Rob prefer young players and picks. We would be getting tremendous talents back unlike that proposed Nets deal. Not to mention Toronto pick which likely will be in the lottery.

After that press conference It'd be funny if Donatas wasn't moved and Dwight Howard actually caught him.

Chad Evans?

I think he has inside NBA information but that's as far as he goes. Not a insider ike Woj or any of those guys but he probably has connections.
