Dude it's all good. No one is upset at you. We appreciate the info (at least I do). Thanks man. Keep us updated if you here anything more though (but you don't have to if you feel uncomfortable releasing certain stuff).

Kyle Lowry, Kevin Martin, Chandler Parsons, Patrick Patterson, Samuel Dalembert, and 2 first round draft picks for Dwight Howard, Hedo Turkoglu, and Chris Duhon.


I like Parsons replacing Turk but im not high on him, he seems at his peak but I'm not a scout. Patterson and Parsons could be buried behind Ryan, vets, deals now or eventually. CLee and Morris have/should have the defense, shooting to be permanent rotation guys whether starting or first off the benches. At least, I know this isnt Morris of Phx but I think this Morris has those traits of defense, shooting. I'm also high on Terrence, moreso has a Turk rep than Parsons. He can't shoot yet but he does everything else. You got the potential of Lowry and Terrence averaging surreal ast/rb/ft numbers as pg, sf. Patterson I hear is good but you got him behind Scola or Ryan already. So he's 20-ish mpg if you're not confident to trade Ryan. I haven't even mentioned BBD, Harper, Clark yet either.

That's why my deal would be Lowry, CLee, Terrence, Morris and Dalembert for Dwight, Von, Ish, Duhon and Turk.

A source within the organization has confirmed to me that Fegan is controlling Dwight's "position". Nothing groundbreaking, but confirmed.

MagicBBallOnline ‏ @MagicBasketball
The organization is still holding out hope that Dwight will choose what he wants and not his agent, but time is running out.

I disagree with the notion that Howard wants to leave. His agent wants him to leave.

if NJ is offering draft pics why wouldn't we trade dwight, they will be lottery pics, maybe not top 10 but the nets aren't winning so many games just cuz they have dwight, we will have 3 pics in the draft with that trade and stop complaining about lopez being our center, we don't need to keep him, use him to move up in the draft with the other pics, draft pics are valuable to us if we won't have dwight past this year

D12 is so manipulated... he doesnt want to look bad for anyone, so he just cant say a NO and make what he really wants.

I really really hope Alex Martin talks to him right after this game and convinces him to follow what he wants or somehow makes Dwight understand that his agent is doing whats best for himself and does not have Dwights best interest in mind.

im so confused i don't even know what to think. i find it hard to believe that dwight would FAKE opting in to his final year just so the nets can keep their assets but i don't know what to think.
