Ya thats why he always wanted to Brooklyn and ruled out the Warriors, OKC, CHI and the likes.

It is all about the money. You even argued that Deron would stay because he would earn so much more money.

Maybe you should stop making the Nets fanbase look bad.

You comment on everything and always spin it the way that Brooklyn looks good.

"The Magic are stupid and should realize that noone can top the Nets offers"

"The Lakers certainly will not give up Bynum"

"Bynum would not resign with the Magic"

"Dwight wants Brooklyn and Brooklyn only"

"Lakers would be stupid because he certainly would bolt to Dallas and Atlanta"

Really dude?

Give it a rest. You are not the Nets pr guy and you certainly will not do anything to influence the outcome.


Thats just stupid.

If it was all about the money he would just stay in Orlando. He's willing to walk out in free agency next year.

I'm glad you've been following me around the boards. As flattering as that it I'm going to have to ask you to stop.

I'm told the Magic will include Jason Richardson in any deal for Dwight Howard.

Wouldn't be bad for LA actually, since JR could be a nice scorer off the bench.


I'd want Hedo, strictly because his contract expires the same year as Kobe/Gasol. That would be over 60 million coming off the books. :o

Looking like the deal now is all up to Dwight. Will he sign an extension or not?

Seems pretty simple to me. If Dwight is gonna leave eventually, and Orlando can get Bynum, you just do it and get this over with. In today's NBA, Andrew is the next best thing to Dwight in the middle, is he not? Even those who don't agree that he's the 2nd best center would have to agree that he's a top 4. And if he is being made available, you take that offer.

I'm a Mavs fan, and not a fan at all of the Lakers, but this makes the most sense for Orlando. Just do it already, and put an end to this crap.

At least Hedo got a little game in him. Blake offers nothing.

Dwight isn't giving up money. If he was willing to he'd not have opted in. He opted in to stop the Magic from trading him to a team other than the Nets. Now he's back to crying and pouting. Call his bluff! He'll re-sign with whatever team has him on the roster. That's why the Warriors want him. They know they're not "renting" him cause he'll give in come contract time.

You're not going to get a better offer Orlando. Does anybody really think Dwight Howard is going to leave money on the table next year? No way he doesn't sign as a Laker when they offer him a contract.

Well it is not like Brooklyn was a winning situation when he first expressed his desire to be there.

He wants the bright lights, fame and most important the money.

And I am not following you around. You just happen to post on every page of most threads regarding DWill , Deron and so on and it is always the same.

Just look at the latest reports. Your "opinions" are always in favor of the Nets and attack every one who says something different.

In this case you were just wrong.

Probably end up Howard/Richardson for Bynum/Artest.

Clearly this was always going to be their plan but will LA step up to the plate and do it. With little competition out there LA really doesn't have the motivation to offer Bynum.

Let's say LA trades Bynum. Dwight goes to LA Bynum to Orlando. Next year Bynum pulls same crap as Howard cause Orlando has nothing else and he tests the FA market.

Orlando only has themselves to blame.

I'm all over that like a bad rash. Sure, we'll need to acquire a SF, but J-Rich can be our 6th man off the bench.

As we've been trying to tell all of you all year, Bynum doesn't care where he plays as long as he gets his money. Orlando will have his bird rights and will have the most money to offer him, he'll stay in Orlando if traded.

it was just reported that Bynum would love nothing more than being the man in Orlando and it has been known for quite a while that he would be happy there.

Noone remembers his quote that there are Banks everywhere?

The problem with Bynum is his health and his attitude. But you can be sure that he will sign with the team that gives him the biggest paycheck.

Brooklyn had Deron Williams. It is an obvious winning situation for Dwight. Those two will make an elite team.

If he just wanted all that he would want to go to the Lakers too.

I do post on most thread concerning Dwight and Deron because I am a Nets fan and I enjoy discussing the Nets. How do you not get that?

I never attack anyone. Thats complete BS. I express my opinions.

I happen to think that trading for Dwight without an extension is a dumb move. How is that not objective?

If you want to see my opinions that aren't in favor of the Nets read what I said about the Joe Johnson trade. Or the Gerald Wallace trade.
