Premium Member Diesel Posted July 2, 2012 Premium Member Report Share Posted July 2, 2012 (edited) Maybe the plan is to trade for Dwight after he gets healthy and send Wallace, Lopez, Brooks, and picks to get him. Then they'd have Deron, Joe, and D-12... Enough to win the East. Edited July 2, 2012 by Diesel Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Premium Member Sothron Posted July 2, 2012 Premium Member Report Share Posted July 2, 2012 I check for proxies and spoofs but its possible someone could get around. People with multiple accounts always get caught so I'm not worried.I'm 100% certain that joker and diesel aren't the same person though.I agree with you but being curious what would you do if you caught a long term poster using an alt account? Would you suspend o ban them? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't even think this Heat team fits. That Deron, Joe, Dwight squad seems to fit for their skill-sets. That would be more like a suped up Boston Celtics.

They wouldn't have the money too nor would they have the assets. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thecampster Posted July 2, 2012 Report Share Posted July 2, 2012 I don't know, for a non-committed Dwight, it's hard to get much better than Lopez and fillers. Dwight will easily walk from most teams.Which is why neither you nor I are NBA GMs. There are about 20 teams that would offer much better than Lopez and fillers. For example, we would have given Horford, Marvin, Zaza and our first this year to get him (and their bad Hedo contract) at the trade deadline last year.

NJHAWK Posted July 2, 2012 Report Share Posted July 2, 2012 The more I read about Brook Lopez injuries the more he scares me off. I certainly wouldnt want to sign him to a huge long term deal even if it is a s & t for JJ. He could be the 7 foot version of Speedy Clankston.

Not many teams outside of maybe Us and Houston will offer a lot for a 1 yr rental. IF Dwight doesn't get what he wants, he's leaving. That's why Brooklyn is kinda in the drivers seat. They can really wait Orlando out. They can push for Dwight after Wallace's contract goes tradable and offer Wallace, Lopez, and Picks... Plus.. if they do the Joe trade and Orlando refuses to deal, they get Deron this year and next year when Dwight is a FA, they can Amnesty Joe to make room for Dwight's contract. So Brooklyn is not so dumb. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So Brooklyn is not so dumb. Second time today I'm going to tell you this. NJ can not amnesty JJ. You can only amnesty a player you signed or that was traded for before the new CBA. You can't trade a player you trade for this summer. Edited July 2, 2012 by thecampster Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Each team may use this provision only once over the life of the agreement."
