Latest: Orlando GM has no desire to deal with the Brooklyn Nets.

Continue. And hopefully this is the last one.

I don't even have a twitter account, so how can I be Chad Evans?

Someone else has been following him just like me

So will the Lakers be going all in to get Dwight, or is it not that big of a deal?

I can see the magic keeping Dwight and signing and trading him next summer.

you destro may not, but this alter ego Chad Evans apparently does have an account. There's random posters on Twitter giving him props for breaking the news that Dwight will NOT be a Net. I still think the account is a fake and the guy may just be getting lucky or talking out of their ass. Just doesn't seem legit, nobody knows what's really going on so I can see how someone may spew out something and actually be corrected, just like @insiderjayNBA's tweet about Lopez got some legs

We'll be going all in as far as trying to trade Bynum alone and take on as few bad contracts as possible...

We aren't going to do a Pau/Bynum trade or something like that.

And that's what Orlando fans seem to think. They're all big talk and brave now because their GM shut down that Nets trade, it's not that hard to see why that garbage got put down in the first place.

If it came down to that I'd gladly keep Pau/Bynum, and I've been hoping Howard gets traded here since December.

Thinking that maybe everyone's waiting for Bynum to get back from fishing in Alaska too...

I see them waiting for Howard to recollect his thoughts and decide on his new list of teams then Magic will be back on the table to find their best deal. They need a leverage and more options to explore. Only chance Howard will stay in Orlando is to publicly announce that he will be invested into the team.

They may be trying to screw around with us, but we need the trade the least out of everyone mentioned... We just got Nash.

It's a little hard to screw around with someone who has almost all the card.

It is a waiting game until a new list appears, I am so curious what the list is.
