Smith will get near a max if not the max which leaves space for just one more max player. Not two.

Clearing cap space doesn't make you a GM of the year. JJ is on a terrible contract, but he produces. He'll be judged on what he does with his cap space and how that produces results.

I doubt Rob cares what Dwight's wish list is. Trade him to whoever offers us the best deal.

Let's see what Howard's bitch ass has to say now. Wouldn't be surprised if he releases a statement to try to clean up his image. That way he can change his stance and stay in Orlando.

Source: With Nets out of equation, Mavs go to top of Dwight Howard's wish list. No other teams - Lakers included - on it. For now.

Good for him. Dallas has nothing either. He'll just keep going down the list.

Teague - expiring
Marvin Williams - just traded for Devin Harris who is expiring
Zaza - expiring

They only have Horford on the books = 3 MAX contracts + Horford

Dwight backed himself into a corner, aliented the fans that have loved him, and is now without a home. Orlando doesn't want him. Brooklyn doesn't want him. And he doesn't want to play anywhere else.

That's karma Dwight! Have fun playing in Houston or Philadelphia!

Stop it. Everyone wants Dwight. . . Brooklyn is trying to keep D-Will first and foremost. . . We're still trying to keep him around too.

There goes Devin Harris. PG pool shrinking.

We should have traded him to Sac in January.

LET'S DO A S&T FOR THIS GUY!!!

If we were going to S&T Anderson, I'd rather trade him for a PG. I want BBD to start and Nicholson to back him up.

With Devin Harris being dealt, there goes my Redick/Doo-hon/Pick for Harris/Bell deal. Damnit.

It'll be tough to make it happen but it's the most logical thing for Dwight and CP3. Shame on ORL and LAC to let that happen and not do something similar themselves, and good for ATL.

If we're losing Dwight, winning isn't in our best interest. Player development is.

Why would we want Jason Thompson when we have Nicholson?

Don't think Magic are rushing to trade Howard. They are happy to let Howard stew., wait for good deal. They aren't the ones that look bad.
