    We need 2 get in on this somehow and get either curry or Gordon since GS seems like they want 2 blow it up and maybe stern makes up 4 da veto by realizing Gordon is not signing long term 2 da hornets

    I repeat: Don't expect Dwight Howard-obsessed Warriors owner Joe Lacob to help Orlando keep Dwight Howard in any way. That is all.

    If true, great deal for the Magic. They dump Hedo and take on a solid backup for Howard (Biedrins) and Howard gets to play with a quality player.

    What's this mean for NJ?

    Sounds like horse crap to me, why in the world would Warriors get rid of Ellis and not get Howard??

    LOL at people saying Ellis is the best player in the deal. No one's been paying attention to what Ryan Anderson's been doing this season. Ellis a slightly above average player who plays a ton of minutes, takes a ton of shots, on a fast-paced team.

    Funny thing is he was thrown into the deal that sent Courtney Lee to the Nets. Sounds like the Magic got a better "asset".

    I don't see this happening. It just doesn't make sense for anyone but Orlando.

    Great trade for the Magic.

    Dwight, Wright, J.Richardson, Ellis, Nelson

    Not bad.

    It's an opportunity for the NOH to dump Okafor or Ariza's contract/s. They shouldn't be taking on anything but expiring contracts, ie Reddick and Anderson.

    Possible first fives:

    Nelson, Ellis, Wright/Ariza, Davis, Dwight

    Curry, Klay, Hedo, Lee, Okafor/Kaman

    Biedrins contract and his inability to play at all is holding back that franchise. They blew their amnesty on Charlie Bell.
