Re: Nets have emerged as favorites for Dwight; Howard expected to ask for deal there.
[QUOTE=B-Easy8]Im sure they could get better than Lopez and 2 firsts. Who wants a C that averages 5 boards a game? Especially right after you had Dwight.
Im sure a lot of teams could offer more than that.[/QUOTE]
Brook is extremely underrated. how many 7 foot centers average 20ppg?

[QUOTE=UK-NJ]Heh, after braving the 12-70 season, the LeBron sweepstakes, the Melodrama & all that stuff, it makes no sense for me to get overly excited over a rumour. [B]Melo was supposed to be a Net on about 5 separate occasions, so I'm certain this story has a lot more twists & turns on the way tomorrow.[/B] [/quote]
Melo was never rumored to want trade to NJ. Dwight is rumored to want to be traded to NJ. It's different this time around. I agree though. I'll believe it when I see it.
Re: Nets have emerged as favorites for Dwight; Howard expected to ask for deal there.
Nets don't have the best offer by far, but i'd rather what they have then no knees Bynum. Last rumour i heard was Orlando won't be trading him before the trade deadline mid season though, he had a meeting with management and gave ashort list of players he wants them to go after and commited for this season. Broussard is also probably the single worst person i've ever seen regarding terrible rumours from his supposed sources...

At this point are teams, players and agents really going to risk going down the road with the Lakers?

He is 7 foot tall, plays 35 minutes per game and averages 6 boards a game. Didn't his coach call him out about it also?

[QUOTE=Zedja]Bynum>Lopez[/QUOTE]
Factoring that Bynum has the knees of a 40-year-old ... it's pretty close to a wash.
Noah + Deng + Gibson is a way, way, waaaaaay better deal.

he also doesn't defend other 5's very good. sure, he's good offensively but he's far from a complete player. that said, he's still a top 5 center which should tell you how weak the position is

He's said on numerous occasions that he'd have been OK with NJ being his final destination. He actually thought he was heading to NJ a few days before he was traded to the Knicks, if I remember right? The Nuggets front office just played a few too many games with us in the end.
Granted, Carmelo never said 'I want the Nets' outright, but neither has Dwight. All we have is rumour & conjecture. I would bet you anything that it'll be a topsy turvy ride before we end up at any concrete resolution to the story. Not gonna get too excited.

Stern rejects rumor of trade!
