Smart decision.

The Hornets asking price was too high. Much better to use their assets in a Dwight Howard pursuit.

I don't like this one bit, because I think it is a sign they are moving on to Howard.

Yes, but he will be lowballing them.

What are they up to? Why would they do that? What's going on that we don't about?

The three-way deal to send Chris Paul to the Lakers has "fallen apart," league source involved in talks says.

Does that create a trade exception coming back to them?  I think so, right?

If the Lakers were to trade Odom and another $3 million in salary to the Mavs, they could potentially take Turkoglu in a D12 trade.

EDIT:  Of course, if they're doing it that way, wouldn't it make more sense to include Odom to the Magic for Turk, and then have the Magic trade Odom to Dallas?  That would free things up with matching salary requirements, etc.

I have little doubt that the Lakers just set the table to get Dwight.

Yeah, that doesn't make sense by itself.  Unless of course, they are taking back a lot of salary from the Magic.

Can't include Green now either......this is too funny.

Dell Demps ought to be fired on the spot for ruining that franchise really.
