    Morey's reputation is really on the line now that Dwight is off the table. As usual, it "appears" as if he put too much stock in this one deal. I hope that isn't the case and he can still pull off some SIGNIFCANT trades in the last two hours or so.

    If he doesn't, all faith will have been lost in his abilities, no matter what the reasons are.

    This means Morey doesn't want him because we could offer more.

    If the trades are there to be made, they aren't there. Everything's not Daryl's fault. What he does this summer will tell us more about his abilities than what he does here at the deadline.

    Well hopefully he doesn't want him because were about to finish up another deal. If not i'm going to be pissed Wallace would of definitely helped us in the playoffs.

    So I guess Nets are no longer looking to salary dump since Dwight was supposedly extended?

    Did you watch or catch the highlights of the Blazers-Knicks game? That should be the answer you seek.

    They are trying to convince Deron Williams to stay so they are surrounding him with talent.

    I think they needed to dump Wallace so they can have the money to resign Batum. Plus, its no secret that Wallace has been sucking it up all year for them.

    Okur is 10 mil expiring, I guess they are clearing up space, and starting all over again.

    This means we cant get Deron Williams in a trade either, so...bye bye to this option too.
