NOT Durant, Harden, and Westbrook.
The Nets draft picks will not lead to a contender.

not like a Tony Parker or a Steve Nash, a Rondo could be found out of top 10. every draft...no. but they do happen

i see henny using it to get rid of Turk, jrich or duhon or a combo of that

I thought you use a tpe to redeem to get a player. I don't understand what you mean here.

ya im stupid didnt realize how TPE works.

id love to see Henny use that to trade Jrich for exmaple to Houston for Kevin martin. thats was i kinda meant by getting rid of players. like trade those Players with crappy contracts for players who have expiring contracts that are big

Wait, which is it? Girlfriend or gay sex with Dwight Howard? I'm sexually confused here.

I'm against giving in and bending over to Dwight's demands. If what we were getting back was some outstanding deal, then I could learn to deal with it. But, if we cave to Dwight's pressure and take back garbage, I will be effing livid.

For a league and franchise that is already keeping me around by a string, that might be the straw that breaks the camel's back for me.

Why quote someone who just created their account recently and has no followers??? I think I'll create a fake twitter account, make up some stupid story about why you should believe my rumor, and then wait to see how long before someone quotes it here - just to prove a point on how easy it is to troll.

I was guessing the deal with whoever would go down Tuesday but I forgot NBA FO's are seasonal like that, Im betting most NBA FO's are really fully staffed today (Sunday) and I could see the deal happening late this night or tomorrow.

I'm still thinking Hou but Im supporting Henny and the new guys no matter what. And kudos if it's a West team not Lakers or a roll the dice move. We need young prospects, picks, cap space so we can flip them to top 10 lotto(s) with our own lottos the next season(s).

I bet my wife he'd be traded this weekend..I still have some time left! Like I said someone needs to make a "get to know Lopez" thread. He's a decent center the picks are worthless though.

Nope, I can't imagine it because his story sounds 100% bogus. I would not be surprised if it's someone from this board trolling, maybe you? :wink:

Why have a meeting about how empty the place will be? I could see a meeting preparing for more people than usual in a place, like with the allstar game recently. What kind of preparing is done for less fans?

Ryan Anderson:

"In Orlando, there's so many amazing things and so many amazing people that I got to know," Anderson told the Orlando Sentinel. "It was such a blessing to be there. But it's a business, and I'm incredibly excited to be a part of an organization that's rebuilding and that's building up, and that could be really good.

"It's all kind of still new to me. I'm still sort of trying to take everything in, but I feel blessed. But I also feel a bit of a 'what just happened?' kind of a thing."
