The only negative is Houston could likely trade DH to Nets in December if they cant convince him to sign?

Another idiotic post on the nets board...


lol the nuggets got a potential all star in gallo as well as a great player in chandler, plus they got picks

the gasol trade looked bad but the grizzlies ended up getting the best player out of the deal in marc... marc > brook, dwight > pau... lol nuff sed

Jrich is no assest but a team underachivieng at the deadline in need of 3point shooting would take him for expirings...maybe we even add a second rounder...but not taking bad contracts back is no deal breaker for me...

Idiots. The Nuggets got a solid package for Melo. Good role players in Galinari and Chandler. I'd be happy with a slightly better than that package for Dwight. And the Grizz got Marc Gasol in the Pau Gasol deal.

Brooklyn "fans" are stupid. Just a ridiculous statement to make. I'm almost tempted to go over there and correct that (Please Use More Appropriate Word).

trading with HOU and the Nets being an capped out, at best second round team for the next 3-4 years, before sucking again, would be amazing

Not if you ask JVG or Boston, but I agree, BBD all the way, he was real bad at the beginning of the year, but he was going through a rough time in his life with his dad dying amongst some other issues. Plus wth howard out he balled

I don't really think of Baby as a bad contract, I just call him that because he is a long term deal. We could realistically have a bunch of young players, good draft picks, like 40 mil in cap room going into next off season.

I don't know if we would actually have 40 mil in cap space but if we can trade Baby and JRich, cut Duhon and Hedo and have only Nelson and Rookie contracts.

I wish Houston good luck, but you know Dwight and his people will fight this to the death.
