    Rob Hennigan must not like what the Rockets or Lakers have offered so far.

    Unless this is something that's actually close to being done, I would guess is the Magic leaked this trade proposal for the other teams to up their offer.

    I mean, four 1st round picks sounds like a lot, but those first rounders will all be in the 25-30 range. Lopez, Humphries and Brooks... whatever. :eek:

    Do they get the MLE after all these trades?

    Otherwise, all the vacant slots would have to be min or vet min guys.

    They would find guys to fill that roster.

    In a potential deal with Orlando, source says Nets would be willing to take back Hedo Turkoglu

    The Heat had a bench when they were first put together! The Nets won't even have a starting line up :eek:

    I believe so. It depends on whether the Nets will have to go under the cap to do either the Joe Johnson or Howard trade. I believe they won't, though it's obviously dependent on what the Magic would be willing to sign Lopez and Humphries to.

    The Nets should still have their MLE, as well as the bird rights to Gerald Green.

    Yeah, maybe I'm missing something, but I don't see how that's possible.

    **** Dwight man. But the bright side to this is it gives the Heat a real challenger. Oh and at least he ain't going to the Lakers.

    Those asking how Nets can afford this: Can exceed the cap to re-sign Lopez and Humphries (Bird rights) and then flip them for Dwight/Hedo
