Situation is different now though.

The magic may do something unless dwight does something. But dwight might do something unless the magic do something. Nothing is for sure though.

You forgot to add the part where Otis does nothing, because Martins took away his phone and e-mail privileges and does his job for him now

Problem with that is who is our C? BBD? Scola + Ryan is a lil redundant...would prob have to try to flip one of them, same with Lee, JJ, JRich, KMart...I proposed a trade earlier here that I love:

http://games.espn.go.com/nba/tradeMachi ... Id=7fcxvc5

Gives us immense caproom next summer as well to go after Bynum, Monta, Iggy, JSmith, and we don't get redundant pieces to what we already have really. Parsons is an up-and-coming baller imo.

My deal in my post a few up solves us the C problem, but doesn't give us the same cap relief (I don't think?). It's essentially:

ORL receives: Lowry, Scola, Dalembert, C.Lee AND Beasley
ORL gives: Dwight, Hedo

HOU receives: Dwight, Hedo, A.Randolph
HOU gives: Lowry, Scola, Dalembert, C.Lee and Martin

MIN receives: Martin
MIN gives: Beasley and Randolph + maybe a pick?

ORL would look like:
Lowry/Nelson/Duhon (could even add Duhon to HOU)
Redick/C.Lee/J-Rich
Beasley/QRich/J-Rich
Anderson/Scola/BBD
Dalembert/BBD

Wow, not bad, man....

Ends up with similar capspace after 2 years but I wonder if Jameer and Scola and BBD will continue to be content as 2nd stringers? That's paying over $25mil to 3 bench guys? I wouldn't mind getting Scola (because I really like his game), though I'm just not sure Houston is willing to give all of that up. I really do like Parsons though, very very low risk on his contract, and imo high upside. He has a very good all-around game. Your trade gets rid of Hedo, but puts Scola on the books for awhile whereas mine gets rid of Jameer, but Hedo would still be on the books (although only half guaranteed past next summer). If we took Scola from them, I would love to be able to give them BBD back. Then we would have some ridiculous caproom next summer with a core of Lowry, Ryno, possibly JJ to build on....and the potential to easily pick up 2 of (Bynum, Iggy, JSmith, Monta). Again, picture a lineup of:

Lowry
JJ
Iggy/JSmith
Ryno
Bynum (assuming healthy of course)

That's a contender right there.

It's because there's hardly any time left on the clock. Desperation and panic setting in... I've heard people say they will trade Dwight for ANYTHING.

My point wasnt that I was sad we wouldn't get Beasley, I was sad that we couldn't dump bad contracts for Beasley

Still doubting him ?

it does not change the fact that he is a nets homer. the most damage shall be done by the most credible among you.

4 out of 100-200 is like a 4 or 2% conversion rate. Do you doubt him?

If Howard does opt in, a lot of people on this forum owe him an apology.
