woo in Orlando!

So how are we gonna get Dwight and CP3? The Rockets are gonna be filthy good.

If you could send salary to the Lakers for Dwight or to the Clippers for CP3. Do you have anything they'd take? Otherwise this probably means you get no one.

[Kurosawa0]

Would the Lakers really say no to a Blake and DJ for Dwight deal?

Do you have to dump salary to sign both?

You cannot receive a player in a S&T, you can give a player out in a S&T though. So the Knicks could trade JR (for example) in a S&T for a player already under contract. But we couldn't trade Novak for a player being S&T'd.

I see. So Lakers be like

Lakers would take that in a heartbeat

They have to dump salary to sign one

[bagelred]

Same old story....Chris Paul and Dwight Howard trying to force their way to Milwaukee....I'm sick of this shit.

[Rubio2Gasol]

I'm guessing the Lakers would be more open to trading Dwight than the Clippers would be to trading Paul.

Doubt they want Lin - but they'll take Asik and Parsons.

[hitman24]

we already knew about dwight..but didn't they say CP3 was one of the most competitive guys in the league?

[kenny817]

Resign Dwight, Nash and Pau for CP3.

CP3
Kobe
Metta
Clark
Dwight

?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!

LMFAAAOOO

[boozehound]

dude is a moron. he talks about a SnT between the lakers and clippers. Pretty sure teams over the tax cannot SnT.

[All Net]

The preference for both players would be to play together for the Clippers, according to the sources. Because the Clippers don't have enough cap room to sign Howard as a free agent, it would take a sign-and-trade deal with the Lakers to make it happen.

The Clippers would be open to working out a deal, but they fear the Lakers would never trade Howard to them, according to the sources.

hm

clearly they do. They have a ton of reasonably signed players along with salary in lin or asik.

You dont think that the clips wouldnt take parsons, one fo their young pf prospects and lin for him? Salaries dont have to match

Mavs are in a bind because they already used their amnesty clause on Haywood which means they would have to find someone to unload Marion onto and then still clean out more space.

Rockets would have to trade about 3/4s of their team and maybe even Harden to make room, it's damn near impossible for them to do this in Houston and stay even remotely relevant in the title chase because their roster will be so bad out side of those 3 and maybe one other guy, plus they already have 0 picks as it is.

Then you have ATL, with all the cap room in the world, two first round picks, the ability to S&T Josh for more picks/role players, Mike Budenholzer at HC and Al Horford who is already on a very team friendly contract.
