Amar'e and Lin are mine. Dude wants them for Smith/Irving.

It's a no brainer. It's fantasy bball dude, you get whoever that can help you win, even players that you hate.

Magic executives have continued to tell teams this week they do not intend to trade Dwight Howard, but several teams came away from the conversations with a clear picture of what the club wants if it changes course: a replica of the deal Denver pulled off last February for Carmelo Anthony, multiple league sources told CBSSports.com Thursday.

...

Could the Warriors possibly give up Stephen Curry, Klay Thompson, Ekpe Udoh, etc., under those circumstances? The Magic hope so, which is why the Howard saga quietly escalated to the next phase Thursday: Orlando’s attempt to follow the Denver model by creating a bidding war and scoring a Melo-like haul of assets.

Anyone but Klay

Do it, for gods sake DO IT

haha I took it, even though Amar'e hasn't been playing well he still was above average for guys I could play as a center. I have two center spots to play and the rest of my eligible guys are Bass, Dalembert, D. Jordan and Camby (it's a pretty deep league). So he still had the most point production out of that spot and his rebounding was alright...plus I'm still a little worried about Smith post-trade demand but fuck it the rest of my team is playing pretty well right now so I don't think it could make me any worse.

 

[darkside31337]

I'm going to laugh so hard if the Warriors trade all that for half a year of Dwight.

 

[ryutaro's mama]

When Syphon Filter is praying for Steve Nash you know it's time to move Lin; Linsanity is dead.

Because people were delusional to think that NBA teams wouldn't adjust to Lin. He's a 23 year old kid that is basically playing in his first real season. Shit, I would say he over achieved in his first games. He's gonna be solid in the right systems (D'Antoni's).

Have some perspective.

Isn't Howard just a rental?

 

[linsivvi]

Pretty sure they won't trade Dwight and he'll walk in the summer. It's inevitable. History is doomed to repeat itself.

 

[darkside31337]

Isn't Howard just a rental?

Technically no. He has a year left after this year but he can opt out so for all intents and purposes yes.

 

[Canuck76]

How many all-stars do the Knicks need to break .500?

All of them

 

[Branduil]

These are the most ridiculous 3-second calls I've ever seen.

I think his lack of athleticism also brings him back to reality.

He doesn't seem particularly fast at all nor that strong.

He has no "escape plan" when the shit hits the fan.

 

[ryutaro's mama]

All of them

Too bad they all play in Denver now.

 

[linsivvi]

Just one legit all-star is all it will take.

Hit the weight room over the summer.

He's plenty strong... he just can't adjust to the NBA as fast as the NBA can adjust to him. He'll be a decent point guard if Melo and Pringles haven't already ruined him.

 

[pilonv1]

I'm going to laugh so hard if the Warriors trade all that for half a year of Dwight.

I wont. Getting rid of Ellis/Lee/Biedrins deals? Priceless. Better than thinking Curry/Ellis/Lee is going to win you anything.

However if they get rid of Klay and Udoh then I will cry.

 

[CoffeeJanitor]

2 more. Add Dwight and Kobe.

 

[Branduil]

Mavs can't even put away one of the worst teams in the league. Blow it up.

 

[TheGreatMightyPoo]

What about his speed though???

He seems to methodically trot into the lane giving the giants plenty of time to do their thing.

He seems crafty enough but can he be successful at taking the ball to the paint several times a game or should he limit that a great amount???

Bynum and Ebanks or Glock, but not both, should be pretty comparable to the Denver haul.

 

[pilonv1]

Warriors don't have a first rounder to trade anyway because of the deal with Utah, so it probably won't be them.

 

[ryutaro's mama]

Mavs can't even put away one of the worst teams in the league. Blow it up.

Brandy will be an interesting character study if Dwight and Deron go to Brooklyn.

I think he will call for deaths and carnage...in other words, WE'LL HAVE OUR OLD BRADY BACK!

Nobody said the Magic were taking back David Lee. Not even Otis is that stupid.

 

[Cipherr]

Wow, Carlisle took that timeout quick as hell, we just came off of a break lol.

 

[Branduil]

This team is a joke.

 

[K.Jack]

Too bad they all play in Denver now.

Gotdamn

 

[CoffeeJanitor]

Steve Nash is a fucking beast, you shouldn't feel bad

 

[Branduil]

I told you guys we would lose this game, but you didn't listen.

No team outshames the Mavs.

 

[linsivvi]

This team is a joke.

Please. The Suns is better than the Pistons and the Wizards.

 

[Puddles]

If the playoffs started tomorrow, we'd get some really fucking awesome series.

Too bad it doesn't look like there's any way for the Lakers to get homecourt in the first round and then the Clippers in the second.

Speed is really overrated.

He can get past that first defender most of the time... its just that after that, his decision making has been... 'questionable'. It always has been. It worked before because he could dictate the entire floor with Melo and Amare Houston not fucking up things, but that is gone for good.

He should be coming off the bench. But Knicks don't have the balls to make that decision. They like hype too much.

 

[Branduil]

Blow it up Cuban.

 

[ryutaro's mama]

DING DING DING

 

[Pkaz01]

oh come on that would have been so perfect.

Don't worry the Mavs won't score for 7 minutes in the 4th again.

Yeah he'll be fine in the long run if Pringles can think things through

 

[Puddles]

I didn't watch the last Knicks game, but didn't Lin have 20 points on nearly 50% shooting with 4 assists against 1 TO?

Seems like he's still pretty solid. They lost because they gave up nearly 120 points to the Spurs.

 

[pilonv1]

Nobody said the Magic were taking back David Lee. Not even Otis is that stupid.

He has to take one of Biedrins/Lee to make the salaries work if he's also including Hedo.

Most of those points were in garbage time IIRC

 

[Puddles]

The Carmelo deal kinda ruined the league. The Knicks gave up WAY too much, and now GMs think their superstar is worth half a starting roster. Yes, literally two and a half good players.

galonari was the only good player we lost.

 

[SoulPlaya]

Hey Poo, according to KC Johnson, Deng says he may need to rest a few games, cause of his wrist. It looks like it is his wrist.

 

[Branduil]

The Suns are shooting 54%.

Wilson Chandler says you cut him deep bro
