Oh, forgot to tweet this earlier. I'm told the Warriors are NOT interested in trading for Dwight Howard unless he signs extension
So who exactly is still in the Dwight sweepstakes? Lakers, Clippers, Rockets? Guessing there must be some surprise teams interested in a rental too.

Michelle Obama is looking fine as usual. Barack did pretty good for himself.

Am I missing something? That team looked old last year. Dirk is 34 and this deal will be at least till he's 38.

Nets have nothing to trade. Dwight's leverage is gone if Brooklyn can't sign him outright. Now every team that can offer more than the Nets can (LAL, Houston, shit even Clippers) have the inside track on resigning him for the max money now that he can't simply walk to Brooklyn at the end of the year.

I'm pretty sure they only get that pick if we make the playoffs. Plus it's not like we need more rookie forwards...
That team never gave a fuck. From the FO to the last guy on the bench. Dallas was one of the few teams that clearly treated the lockout season like a lockout season.
It's top 14 protected.
I still can't imagine a team willingly trading for Amare.

Source: Nets are meeting with Deron Williams right now. Telling him about trade for Joe Johnson right now.
Hopefully for their sakes that D-Will doesn't read RealGM

The hawks just got rid of a huge enormous shitty contract.

they could go 0-82 and that move would be a success.

They have already talked to him. Don't see the point for them to just reiterate what they said like 3 days ago.

What is going on there? Did they really just go from potentially Deron and Dwight to Gerald Wallace and Joe Johnson?

If Deron makes $18 mil next season on the Nets, their "big 3" will be roughly $48 million. $49 with Brooks.
Assuming a $62 mil salary cap (it goes up $2 mil), and 8 roster holds, the most they could offer $9 million to Dwight in free agency. And that's assuming those are the only 4 players on the roster. If they use a MLE or sign lopez to more than 1 year, etc, they can't offer Dwight more than the MLE.
Deron re-signing ends any bid for Howard. It's over.
Can still get dwight if Deron walks.
Would be HILARIOUS if that's all they get. JJ and GW. oh my god.

They can trade Marshon Brooks and a resigned Kris Kardashian and Brooke Lopez for Dwight in December.

They can trade them now. Orlando doesn't want it.
And no team that trades for Dwight will want them, either.

You can't trade Tim Duncan twice in the same deal.

So this guarantees Dwight can't go to Brooklyn this year and if he goes next year the roster will be bogged down by JJ's contract.
Eat it Dwight, go take a sex ed class and come to LA already.

Fire sale? Fool, this frees them from Salary Cap AND Luxury Tax Hell.

Considering all the Dwight bullshit that has gone on I wouldn't be surprised if he says he wants to stay in Orlando now. Thats the logical finale to this entire soap opera.
This ain't a fire sale. They're getting rid of an albatross of a contract, so they can add depth around the still young group of Horford, Josh, and Teague. Otherwise they were stuck doing what they did last year - buying up the scraps of vet mins that Miami and Boston weren't interested in.
