Rockets actively shopping Luis Scola (UPDATE: Rockets, Nets talks fell apart)

[MghtyPtrck]

why are we giving them pieces to help them get dwight?

[JD88]

No point in getting their first round picks now if they get Dwight. Might as well get the Heat's first rounder.

[Audioout]

They wouldn't have the cap space anymore after signing Wallace, Lopez, and Derron.

This along with the Joe Johnson talk shows they are giving up on Dwight.

How is Scola a piece to get Dwight? You think Scola makes or breaks our ability to trade with Orlando?

i misread the article... who would we receive from the nets?

[Audioout]

According to the article "expirings". They barely have anybody so my guess would have to be Anthony Morrow and Johan Petro.

Bingo

[Convictedstupid]

You must've not looked hard.

[Audioout]

Nets have wanted Scola since he was a free agent.

A lineup of Deron, Johnson, Wallace, Scola, and Lopez is pretty legit.

I still think Deron won't resign though.

Draft picks. Howard recently has stated he wishes to be traded to the Nets to team up with Deron Williams, so the Nets are likely looking to acquire Scola to sweeted the deal for the Magic. Similar to what the Rockets were trying to do by getting the 18th and 12th draft picks, although it didn't work out.

I LIVE on this forum. I didn't see it. It's probably buried in another thread somewhere. Sorry, I didn't find it but if I didn't it's likely others didn't either.

Also, calling me out that way isn't called for.

Lol

[Grape_Swisha281]

IMO... With all the moves the Nets are attempting shows that Deron Williams is signing with The DallASS Mavpr**cks... I think they're re-tooling around JJ, Crash, Scola, kinda like win now.. again jus my take

a couple things. there is no evidence that can confirm that dwight "has stated he wishes to be traded to brooklyn" it may be an open secret but so far its all speculation. second, you cant trade for a player than immediately trade them to another team. if brooklyn wants to use scola as a bargaining chip to acquire dwight than it would take a 3-way trade between HOU-ORL-BK.. if Scola goes to the nets i forget the timetable of how long before the nets can trade him..
