    Gerald Wallace and Nene are going to be Houston Rockets by the end of the day.

    One interesting thing to note:

    This deal does NOT come with an extension (as far as I'm aware). Deron Williams could still walk at the end of his contract.. 20 feet to the Knicks facility. :eek:

    More good news for the playoff hunt; this year and in the future. The West is weakening big time.

    Seriously? I can think of a couple of things:
    • "Utah"
    • "Jazz"
    That's good enough.

    Wow. Good for Jersey. They essentially screw New York into giving up too much for Carmelo and wind up with a stud point guard.

    There's no way D-Will is going to the Knicks now. They are most likely going to need to pull off a S&T for it to work for the Knicks and the Nets sure as hell aren't doing that.

    dang this literally came out of nowhere...and the Nets came out on top. New York definitely overpaid for Anthony.

    WTF can we offer that is better than Favors/Harris/2 1sts?

    Seriously, people are deluded if they think we had a chance to put together a package better than that.

    Man, crazy how the West's dominance of the past 10+ years is evaporating before our eyes. Good news for the Rockets.
