i think dalembert is waiting on nene, who is probably waiting on dwight (esp re: NJ). and to a lesser extent marc gasol.

once memphis matches on marc gasol, houston will prob make the same offer it made marc gasol to nene and then new jersey/denver will up their offers, etc. seemed like new jersey was gonna sign nene but then held off while the dwight stuff played out.

i could see dalembert going to houston or denver after nene signs in NJ.

That's one less player that the Nyets can get. They're going to get desperate soon. Other teams that Dwight Howard would sign with have better trade assets than NJ anyway. They can try and get Dalembert there, but signing him won't keep Deron Williams from breaking camp this summer.

I don't know, he's said that he'll only sign an extension with the Nets, Lakers, Mavs, or Magic. I can't see anything the Dallas has to trade for Dwight which would leave LA or Nets. At that point what do you like better: the immature and perpetually injured Bynum or soft, not as good as everyone thinks Brook Lopez?

I actually want Dwight to get traded/signed with the Nets. I want a rivalry and it would be fun to beat up on Superman every year.

I"m not so sure about that. Other teams like who? I thought ther package was pretty good.

Other teams like the Lakers and the Mavs (if the Mavs were serious about getting D12). Lopez and some draft picks for the Best center in the NBA? I think not, and seemingly Orlando sees it the same way. That's why the Nets trying to get additional assets and/or bring another team into the deal.

You already know how much I hate the Nyets, Killa. Ain't a damn thing changed.

The LAL doesn't want to trade both Bynum and Pau, but they have other players of higher value that the Nyets do. In addition to that, the Lakers have the $9M trasde exception that they traded Lamar Odom for (that Dallas got from us in the Ty Chandler S&T), and that's also a valuable asset.

I know what LA has to trade, and it really isn't any better than what the Nets have, but what does Dallas have that Orlando would want? They're not trading Dirk and after him what's left?

There are players that Dallas could trade, but IMHO,they would be better off staying in Dallas. THey just won a chip there., so they should try to keep the remaining players on that team together. I'm actually surprised that they'd even be in the running for Dwight, but he's definitly an upgrade from Ty Chandler, and would be more than enough to fill the void left by Chandler's departure.

I'm looking at the Dallas roster and just don't see it. They have Dirk and a bunch of role players; all of whom, except Beaubois, are over the age of 30. Orlando could probably get a better package from the Clippers or Warriors to rent Dwight for a year.
