Revised according to Woj (Yahoo):

Orlando gets:

- Brook Lopez (S&T)

- Shelden Williams (S&T)

- Damion Jones (S&T)

- Luke Walton ($6 million)

- 3 Draft Picks

 

Brooklyn gets:

- Dwight Howard ($19 million)

- Jason Richardson ($6 million)

- Earl Clark ($1 million)

 

Cleveland gets:

- Kris Humphries (S&T)

- Sundiata Gaines (S&T)

- Quentin Richardson ($3 million)

- 1 Draft Pick (2nd pick contingent on 4th team taking MarShon Brooks)

 

Since we're sending back $25 million in salary, that means we should get back the same amount.

 

Guessing something like: Lopez = $12 million, Williams = $4 million, Jones = $4 million or something.

Walton is an expiring contract. His salary is similar to J-Rich but comes off the books way sooner.

Ok TRYING to look on the positive side a young center in Brook Lopez, expiring contracts and cap relief, 3-4 1st round picks = full tank mode...... Ah hell I can't even look past Brook freaking Lopez without crying a little. It's almost funny how bad this is

[chosen12 75]

This is the 2011 NJN without Deron Williams!!!! What kind of disaster is this impersonating a trade???

 

 

 

Rob.............. you are making people ask for OTIS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

yeah, that's the thing. i'm actually OK with everything in this deal except lopez. i don't want us making some long term commitment with him or something, especially when we're keeping hedo.

Hello everyone. I'm a Lakers fan from the lakers.topbuzz forum and one of my forum-mates posted a link to this discussion on this rumored Dwight deal.

 

I just want to say how sorry I am (for both our teams) that our GMs are apparently incompetent. In the rumored deal you are getting trash and why Hennigan would do this beats me, maybe he's secretly working for the Nets?

 

A Lakers deal of Bynum + MWP/Ebanks for Dwight + Jrich would of been far and away the best option for the Magic and the best option for the Lakers. If it looks like a duck, quacks like a duck....

 

I hope this rumored deal is just a smokescreen. I want Dwight in a Lakers uni, and you guys would be getting the 2nd best center in the league who has the potential to put up 25-30 points a night as option 1 (instead of option 2-3 he is on the Lakers).

 

Sorry for your pain guys,

I say we flip Brook Lopez to some dumb team for a few draft picks. If we sign him to a 4 year deal I will cry.

[DanA_TBDP 12]

All the Orlando people say is they aren't rushing. All the Cleveland people say is they aren't interested. Yet we're all letting the New York media throw us out of wack.

 

Come on guys, Hennigan isn't this stupid. Have you seen the proposed trade? Lol.
