    Both of those trades, I think, improve the Rockets. I don't mind Howard going to LA if it means we get a star level player and instantly become the frontrunner for Deron Williams.

    D-Will + Gasol + good supporting cast can contend for a championship.

    How do you figure? What can we offer the Magic better than the best C in the Western Conference?

    Hell yea, but what about Turk's bad contract? The magic would surely want that off the books if they move howard.

    Everybody has made good points about Hedo. It might be too difficult to match salaries when combining Turk and Howard's contract in a 4 team trade.

    That's $28 million that needs to be matched by 4 teams.

    The Magic and Lakers might have to do a 2nd trade with Turk and use different teams to facilitate the trade. Turk is $10.6 mil by himself. Both deals would be completed on the same day.

    Rockets will somehow get involved and get a 2nd round pick & some assets back........ sending Martin, Lowry and Scola. :cool:

    That's exactly right.

    But he could go if we can get either of those two.

    the latest rumor has Pau and Bynum headed to Orlando, along with Calderon.

    Dwight and Jameer Nelson to LAL according to the unreliable source, aka sports radio in Los Angeles.

    I forget what they said Toronto was getting.

    Not sure this makes the Lakers better this season, but at least they would lock in Howard.
