Trade Sessions for Nash.

Trade Hill for Beasley

Sign Jamison to the mini MLE. Sign Grant Hill to the vets minimum. Sign Johnny Flynn to the vets minimum. Sign Ronny Turiaf to the vets minimum.

Steve Nash/Johnny Flynn
Kobe Bryant/Jason Richardson
Michael Beasley/Grant Hill
Pau Gasol/Antawn Jamison
Dwight Howard/Ronny Turiaf


Holy **** even NBA 2K thinks this is ridiculous.

Maybe dwight doesnt mind la?


fake?

Nope . Drew RT from dwight's twitter


Dwight's twitter is dwighthoward, not TheDwightHoward

you would know that if you even bothered to read the part where it said "This account is not affiliated with Dwight Howard."

Well considering the fact that a team with Deron, JJ, Wallace, Dwight would net you probably a bottom 5 first round pick in 2013, 2015 and 2017...

Brooks is good.
Brooks and Humphries are both young, and both of those combined are better than an old Ron Artest.

Advantage : Nets

So that leaves Bynum vs Lopez + 3 first round picks.

Considering that nobody is going to do Howard for Bynum straight up, and considering that Lopez is almost just as good as Bynum (Bynum is better, but not by a lot), and you add in 3 first rounders and the advantage with Brooks + Humphries....

then yes, best offer out there is Nets package.

Magics get pick #28, #29, #30 picks in the draft :lol:

Along with having to take Humphries contract that will be high to fit in the trade.

Orlando wants to dump a contract off their hands along with trading Howard. Nets can't do it.

Bynum + whoever for Howard + whoever is more logical.

Lopez is nowhere near as good as Bynum and only played in 5 games last season. There's a small gap between Howard and Bynum. That's a canyon between Bynum and Lopez.

This Laker hater keeps posting negative posts about the Lakers and their players every chance he gets in every thread, Bynum not better than Lopez by a lot? Somebody is scared of a big trade going down.

Saying Brook Lopez only has to work on rebounding "a bit" is like saying Amar'e needs to work on defense "a bit" He's the worst rebounding big in the NBA, Andrea Bargnani grabs more rebounds than Brook Lopez, Ty Lawson averaged more rebounds per game

If you're trying to make a point refrain from making things up.

Last seasons sample was 5 games most of them off the bench in limited minutes.

If you think Brook Lopez actually averages 3 rebounds a game you need a reality check. He averaged 8 rebounds his first two years and 6 his third.

Hes bad but not even close to as horrific as you are saying.

And yes he can improve. If he average nearly 9 rebounds a game his sophomore season he can certainly learn to average 10 with a little more effort and skill.

The best magic could do is
Andrew Bynum +draft picks plus TPE
Why would they want to build a further with hump?

I think if every one of those draft picks was unprotected, 2017 could totally give Orlando a top 3 pick. The Nets are not built for the long term

idk if Lopez is incapable of rebounding or if their defense is just that bad so there's no rebounds to get.

Also he's pretty awful.


I apologize for my tone but its frustrating to hear everyone talk nonsense about Lopez all the time despite having never seen him play.

If you went and looked up his stats you should have also realized he was injured nearly all of last season.

Lopez is a bad rebounder but when you said he was the worst rebounder in the league and a worse rebounder than Ty Lawson you really crossed the line.

Well Shaq lite has been swept twice in a row, also don't forget Shaq lite had Kobe Bryant and Pau Gasol on his team.

Bynum > Lopez
Not even close, don't kid yourselves.

The Magic can have an All-Star center to build around if they want him. If they don't, oh well, good luck with Hump and Lopez front court with low picks. That'll fill them seats up.

In the worse case scenario,,,Whats really gonna tick me off is seeing Bynum being the man in Orlando averaging 30 points and 15 rebounds per game....
