In most advanced scenario discussed, Blazers swingman Gerald Wallace would join Nets center Brook Lopez as principal pieces Magic would get https://twitter.com/#!/ESPNSteinLine Lopez/Wallace for Howard? not a very good deal for the magic if you ask me. howard should get you a bigger haul than paul does and this is nowhere close to what the clips are offering for noh (i know the scenarios are different with the leauge behind involved and all but still) "OMG - did we just go on a two-trade-wining-streak?" -SupremeCommander

UPDATE: A league source told CBSSports.com that the Magic are "not in a rush to do anything," and that the team's first priority is to keep Howard. The scenario as currently constructed with Wallace joining Lopez in Orlando as the primary pieces is not enough to persuade the organization to move forward with the deal quickly, the person said. ¿ △ ?

The Magic want to get rid of Turk. The priority for them is getting space to rebuild.

As opposed to what they're going to get when he walks away at the end of the season? And it's not as if those picks will be at the end of the draft; unless the Nets can get some more talent to surround Dwight and Deron, any picks from NJ should be middle of the first round. And any picks from Portland could very well be in the lottery. And then if they are dumping their bad contracts that would, by my count, cut about $40M from their cap figure next year http://hoopshype.com/salaries/orlando.htm. That would allow the to do what Sea/OKC and Portland had done over the last 5 or 6 years and take on others bad contracts along with future firsts. It's almost certainly a better haul than what NO had agreed to with LA and Houston. Now the joy of my world is in Zion
