I feel bad for Magic fans if this deal goes through.

I cant believe Bynum would give up his Bird Rights

The magic need remember they are not in rush...
Lakers still offer the most.. If cap relief is the issue than go with HOU

Bynum doesn't want to play for Orlando like Howard doesn't want to play for LA.

Whats the big deal? I would still do the trade anyways if I were both teams, but I guess Orlando is scared.

So the Nets are taking back Hedo's contract?

Brooks max contract is like 4 years and 58 million.

Bynum's is 5 years 100 million.

With at least 5 knee surgeries and periodic Synvisc injections.

Oh and now he reportedly does not want to be there.

Nets are finding traction beyond third-team involvement of Cleveland to find a landing spot for Kris Humphries, league sources tell Y!

Nets GM Billy King is flying to Vegas Monday morning to watch Deron Williams w/ Team USA. No Dwight Howard deal imminent, still work to do.

Uhh Bynum>>>>>Brooks which is why he would get paid more. And Brooks isn't exactly injury free himself. He played only what, 5 games this season lol? Brooks reportedly doesn't wanna go to Orlando either. Lose/Lose for Orlando it seems.

A 3rd team is necessary if they want to move hedo .

Truthfully Bynum is currently one of the flatout most overrated players in the L and Brook one of the most underrated.

The gap that separates them is a lot smaller then people will ever admit, if Brook was a Laker people would be all on his nuts like some Gold Bond, his win shares and efficiency would be all pumped up and his defensive woes would be masked and covered for like Bynum's are.

Bynum is a better rebounder that's for sure and it's not close. Everything else is very close.

Why do the Lakers need anymore assets?

Andrew Bynum is hands down worth more than anything the Nets can offer.

I'm saying that I don't think Magic is using this as leverage to up the LA offer because there is not much else they can offer.
