    And positioned them to get much better with subsequent deals, and likely to get Howard, so not necessarily. The NOH owners nixed the trade, not "the league" just like the NOH owner nixed a trade of Paul to the Blazers a while back. Once Howard is a Net, I'll feel much better about CP3 to LA, because I also don't think it improves them, but I don't doubt they'll be able to use the trade exceptions, draft picks and other assets to pull of another sweet heart deal. Seems like some of the owners are as sick of it as the fans. Also, someone said the Hornets would also have to lose West to make it work? If so, not such a great deal for NOH?

    Dwight Howard met with NJ owner Mikhail Prokhorov & GM Billy King Thurs night in Miami, sources say. Orlando was unaware if meeting

    Meeting was violation of NBA tampering rules.

    This Nets tampering story is devastating, if true.

    The Nets should get hammered for that if true. That's worse than the Joe Smith fiasco in Minny and they got several draft picks taken away.

    SOURCE: Nets are closing in on Nene after upping the offer last night. Went hard after the center after Chandler went to the Knicks

    Well I was hoping this nets deal went through because it's truly D12 what the leakers want. Now they still have a chance to get him.
