From ReamGM:

In addition to their four-team trade talks with the Lakers, Sixers and Nuggets, the Magic remain engaged with the Rockets in trade talks for Dwight Howard.

Houston's most recent proposal would be preferable to Orlando than the four-team proposal that would include Pau Gasol, Arron Afflalo and Nikola Vucevic, according to a source.

ESPN bottom line is now saying trade is imminent.

Looks like this might be legit this time

I wonder what we're planning on doing with Gasol? Trade him to Houston for Lamb and White?

When you think of it, it really doesn't make a lot of sense for LA too ..

If they wanted to give up Bynum AND Gasol for Dwight, they probably could've had Dwight/Ryan/JRich months ago, which is a lot better than Al Harrington.

I think Otis forgot his smoke machine at the Amway Center

That menas Bynum is coming to Orlando???? I would LOVE Bynum and Afflalo!!

I'd argue that Bynum and Afflalo is better than Dwight

I would say a healthy Bynum with Affalo isntead of J Rich definitely makes us better.

So with Gasol reportedly not being included, we'd be looking at

Vucevic, Afflalo & mediocre picks

Either a very bad joke or a big smoke screen
