if Lakers go ahead and deal for Howard after this, Daryl Morey, like Chris Wallace, will be known as the guy who gifted the Lakers multiple titles.

Yeah. I hope Stern vetoes this deal for the second time. Hill, Ebanks and Caracter are fake sweeteners like Splenda.

VETO!!

Now appears Lakers will keep Devin Ebanks, and that additional young talent to New Orleans will be coming from the Rockets, sources confirm.

Now, they want to keep Ebanks too...lol.

It certainly doesn't make a lot of sense to me.  I hope Stern shows some guts, and says "No, I really wasn't kidding before.  Bring me a different trade, or quit wasting my time."

It's funny that Rockets are actually trying harder and willing to give whatever it takes to make this deal happen, when in fact, Lakers are getting the big prize.

Their "master plan" of pairing Pau with Nene has 0% chance of happening. If Paul goes to LA (without Bynum going to NO) Howard goes to LA ---> Nene goes to Nets.

In reality, LA don't have enough assets to get CP and DH but it looks like they will.

Odom+Gasol+Bynum = Howard+Paul    

Where amazing happens

Morey is the one getting screwed and he doesn't even realise this.

I could see the opposite happening too Stern saving face from the media his image etc and doing it just for that added excitement/drama/storylines across the basketball world following this dark lockout.

I hope I'm wrong.

if lakers make out in this deal even better than before and then send bynum to orlando for dwight, it will certainly seem as they run the league, not stern.

How in the world does Mitch Kupchak convince the Rockets to send more players instead of the Lakers?

I can see this happening too and I too hope it's wrong. It better get vetoed. Not just because it's LA, cause even in the first deal Houston takes the bigger hit players wise and LA is the one getting CP3, they were just going to get an aging and skills on the decline Pau Gasol. So, the deal didn't change... still vetoed.

How? Because they are the Lakers.

The league has no interest in seeing them suck for a few years.

Sean Deveney: Doesn't look like Jordan Hill will be in the Hornets trade, which makes me think Patrick Patterson will be.

Gotta think it will get vetoed because the owners don't want that pairing to happen right after the lockout.
