Man WTF is going on in the N B fucking A.
Joe Johnson Trade To Brooklyn Nets Completed
- Thread starter Mask
- Start date
Fuck that trade amare for dwight, My knicks will take that big dummy
Espn is reporting hawks will try to trade horford and Teague for Howard and try to sign cp3 if Danny ferry can pull this shit off he should win a lifetime achievement award
let's go hawks!!!!
You should stop dancing. Chris Paul is going nowhere and it has already been stated. Blake Griffin just signed his extension and Paul declined his because he can get a longer deal with more money next season with the Clippers.
As for this trade. It all centers in on Dwight Howard. While he was playing checkers, Nets and Magic were playing chess. Magic knew that the Nets had nothing to offer them and also knew that Nets were not going to wait forever because they have their own player in Williams that they need to worry about. Howard is running out of power and things might get interesting, depending the upcoming moves.
I'm surprised these NBA niggas don't wanna play and live in the ATL...as many regular niggas they're same age be breaking their necks to move down there...hell, I'm always seeing NBA players hosting Compound, Velvet, Essos, etc.
...and yet some of these same dudes wanna play in 'Boston?' Lol

Dude needs to be executive of the year for getting rid of Joe Johnson ass
JJ been chilling ever since he got paid
ATL isn't viewed as a big-market team. Howard wants to go Hollywood. Same thing with Deron Williams and the reason he won't go to Dallas. Cali, New York, Miami. Those are the IT cities for athletes these days.
Goddamn the Nets are desperate. 
I always wondered this.
as many entertainers and athletes stay there.
When they go on free agency trip, they could tour the strip clubs
If they had the right ownership they could be up there with New York and LA for black players. I guess the same could be said of Washington
Dwight just changed his list
1 Nets
2 Mavs
Dwight feels he can still join the Nets
I say
1 Nets
2 Mavs
Dwight feels he can still join the Nets
I say
nah you can DEFINITELY make the A more attractive with winning/exciting pieces. MIA was not an IT city until 2 years ago... if they get Howard and Josh running and dunking on everybody probably every game would sell out!!!
That's the thing though. You need a star to make them a winning team and they just haven't been able to do that and now with this trade, take a step backwards. Howard wants no part of his hometown team, and Chris Paul has found a home in LA. Who else is left that can make ATL a big-market team?
Dwight just changed his list
1 Nets

I say
well damn.... Come on then!
If Dwill signs with the Nets after this stupid ass shit then fuck em
Didn't read the whole the thread but basically the Hawks did this to try pursue Dwight in FA next year. Ferry (or whatever his name is) knows the Nets can't get Dwight anymore after giving them Joe Johnson. Yall can break down all the trade scenarios, but its not happening.
Dwight is fucked. He is in his crib destroying shit over this news.

actually they can if the owner doesn't give a fuck about going over the cap and paying the luxury tax.
the owner obviously doesnt give a fuck about paying luxury tax but unless its a trade they cant get Dwight Howard
you cant sign someone to a max contract if you are over the cap
and nobody is taking on Gerlad Wallace or Joe Johnsons bloated ass contracts except the Nets and they are already on the Nets
Okay. Smith gets hurt and is lazy...but, with Williams he might step it up. Nets stand pat now. Fuck Dwight Howard. Never wanted the dude. ALWAYS hurt. Plays like a bitch against good teams and flexes against weak ones. Only problem is once you get locked into that 6, 7, 8 round playoff spot, you never advance and you get shitty draft picks. You just wallow for years while your one or two stars get old.
Yup.
Nah bro. I like a team of DWill, JJ, Wallace, Hump, Lopez with Brooks and Green coming off the bench. Fuck Dwight. I put money on that line up competing with anyone in the East not named Miami.
Nice lineup I suppose Dwill is the "closer" there
That won't win you a championship though but if the goal is to make the playoffs, exit in the 2nd round, and put asses in the seats then mission accomplished
You are now the Atlanta Hawks
them niggas is the bucks on steriods.
foh
foh
Lets be honest. They wernt winning a championship either way. That lineup will keep the fans happy, compete nightly, and advance in a trash conference...Oh, and they will hammer the in state knicks early and often. Thats a major win for that organization.
See you in 2014.
the point I'm making is... They can only get him on a trade. Why would the Magic want the Nets is offering if there are dumbass teams out there willing to put the house up for Dwight just to "rent". Thats why I said Dwight ain't going to the Nets. I don't think this new Magic GM is dumb as Otis.
you are right
but I would say if a team does "rent" him this year I don't know how dumb that is or if its dumb
they will be calling his bluff to leave that $$$ on the table
Wait, so a team of D-Will, JJ, Gerald Wallace and Brook Lopez is going to shit on the Knicks?? 
You dudes who hate the Knicks are so blinded by your hate. That squad is decent but at best is still the Hawks team that the Knicks destroyed last year and the year before.
No lie the team improved but that squad ain't going deeper than the Knicks. Plus the Knick bench is still going to bust that ass.
Can't wait to son lil brother come November

Yeah, I don't think that trade makes the Nets significantly better than the Knicks. I'd call it a wash at best.
We'll see in 2014 when JJ is making 24mil/year, and ya'll are having parades for getting past the first round of the playoffs.
Good job at looking at my finger while I'm pointing at the moon, ol' short sighted ass!From Chris Broussard Twitter:
Sources: The Nets & Magic are discussing a trade that would send Dwight Howard to Brooklyn for Briik Lopez, Kris Humphies, Marshon Brooks and the Nets' first-round picks in 2012, 2014, 2016 & 2018....move would give Nets Big 3 of D-Will, Dwight & Joe Johnson
