Yes, the general manager of the Los Angeles Lakers used the plural. And with Chris Paul still brooding in New Orleans and with Dwight Howard in damage control mode in Orlando, and with the Los Angeles Clippers dance with the Hornets suffering from fits and starts, we are sort of back in the same place we were six days ago when commissioner David Stern turned the NBA on its head. The Lakers no longer have one of the trade assets that would
Three-team Chris Paul trade is dead; D12 to LAL?
Time to start all over again, from scratch. Chris Paul to the Clippers? Chris Paul to Golden State? Dwight Howard to the Lakers? Dwight Howard to the Bulls? Yep, those rumors are all out there this morning after the three-team deal between the Lakers, Hornets and Rockets fell apart late Saturday night, with the Lakers making a different deal by sending Lamar Odom to the Mavericks for a first-round draft pick. The Mavericks were able to absorb Odom’s salary through the trade exception
Dwight Howard has requested a trade to the Nets
That is the news out of Orlando this evening, and now it is a question of whether New Jersey has enough pieces to get the deal done. It has been well known that New Jersey is willing to deal center Brook Lopez and two first-round draft picks to Orlando, taking back the contract of Hedo Turkoglu in the deal to give Orlando salary cap flexibility. But is that enough to get the league’s most dominant center? Also, can the Nets clear more
Howard’s agent talking to Lakers, Nets, Mavericks
“Right now, we’re here in Orlando. We just had practice, and that’s what matters. Nothing else matters beyond today and this moment.” — Dwight Howard, Dec. 9.

Somebody is going to trade for Howard and/or Chris Paul, be it today, tomorrow or the next
Dwight Howard to Nets?
There is a question mark in that headline because there needs to be one. Things are going to change by the hour today, and who knows what kind of twists and turns the Chris Paul trade fiasco is going to take before the league officially re-opens for business at 2 p.m. EST. In case you missed it, 86 percent of the players who cast ball0ts voted to approve the new labor agreement before commissioner David Stern 86’d the three-team trade that would have
Deron Williams will not sign extension with Nets
This is one huge piece of news being reported by Al Iannazzone of the Bergen Record. Remember, the Nets insisted they would not give up their pile of assets last season without a guarantee from Carmelo Anthony that he’d sign with them long-term, and then they went out and made the monster gamble anyway in sending all those assets to Utah. The Nets can still pay Williams $25.7 million more than anyone else if he opts out and then re-signs for the

If Nachbar returns to NBA, he’d say “Yo” to Brooklyn
By Chris Sheridan KAUNAS, Lithuania — Bostjan Nachbar indeed wants to get back into the NBA, and don’t be surprised if he ends up in one of three places: New Jersey, Toronto or Detroit. Nachbar, who has been working out for two weeks after having surgery to remove loose cartilage from his ankle, arrived Tuesday in this quaint Lithuanian city to provide color commentary for Slovenian television as his homeland plays in the quarterfinals. He has spent the past three years playing in Russia
