Kardashian Fortunes Flailing

PrintHe may get booed when he steps on courts away from New Jersey and a (questionable) poll may have declared him the most hated player in the NBA, but Kris Humphries, with his big new contract and success on the court, is doing better than his soon-to-be ex-wife.
The New York Post reports
The wheels came off Kardashian’s caboose in October, when she filed for divorce from Nets forward Kris Humphries after 72 days of a sham marriage. E!’s Kardashian TV franchise, "Keeping up with the Kardashians," suffered a 14 percent dip in Nielsen ratings, from 3.5 million viewers per episode last season to 3 million this season. Circulation at Us Weekly, In Touch, Life & Style and OK! dropped about 18 percent when a Kardashian was on the cover in December.
Everything the reality family touches turns absolutely toxic

Nets, Mavericks, Lakers. Those are the fan bases who can talk about getting Howard and what it would take. Everyone else, stop. It’s not worth your time or mine
Mavs dont have the trade assets so he isnt going there, its between us and the Lakers.

If he makes it to the offseason him and Deron are staying in NJ, since we are his first choice he will come here...but if he is traded its us and Lakers
Hopefully Bynum keeps playing good so Lakers will think he is better than Dwight and not trade him, which I see happening.
Lakers have one of the best FO in the NBA
They know DH12 is better than Bynum no matter how he plays. Question is whether Bynum and fillers are enough to get DH12 or Magic would want Gasol too. Then they will think twice about that.

You seriously believe that they would love Bynum so much that
they would say no to the most dominant big man in the NBA. Kobe would kill Buss if he refuse to trade Bynum for DH12.

Bucher... really Lakers shopping Gasol?
Bernard (Philadelphia)
With Otis Smith stating they won’t trade Howard until after the All Star Game, and with Bynum getting more touches offensively are the Lakers and Orlando going to trade straight up Howard/Bynum with draft pics? Are the Lakers and Nets talking a Pau/Williams trade?
Ric Bucher
(2:07 PM)
Everyone I’ve talked to in the league just can’t see it. LA picks just aren’t high enough, for one. And if you’re Orlando, no matter how well Bynum is playing, you can’t hitch everything to him. You need picks and another young player to at least cover you from coming up empty if Bynum goes down again. But waiting until after the all-star break really screws up both the Lakers and Nets. For the Lakers, it means waiting until it may be too late to find a groove for this year with Howard, and if it costs both Gasol and Howard to get him, are you really that much better this year? That’s why Lakers are contemplating moving Gasol to improve now. Which would take them out of the Howard race if they did.

Sadly, Deron, you are already trying your best. You're just not good enough. You are just not a superstar.

Just curious
Would you mind naming a few other superstars that you are 100% confident of? I’m just curious as to who you think deserves the title superstar.
To me, a Superstar is a player who has the ability to (relatively) consistently play above the level of his peers. Which Deron has not shown this year.
Ability to perform at high level amongst scrubs (during his prime, of course) is key. Play like a man amongst boys. For example, Blake Griffin and Derrick Rose are young but obviously superstars in the making. Deron is not in that league.

"My interest in owning the Nets has not diminished at all," Prokhorov said in an e-mail this week when asked if his political aspirations presented a problem unforeseen when his purchase of controlling ownership from Bruce C. Ratner in 2010 injected life into the stalled Barclays Center project.
"Regarding team operations, I hate to disillusion anyone, but I do not make the day-to-day decisions," he added. "We have a superb management team in place and I see my role as lending vision and strategy ideas, but not intruding on their good judgment."
Prokhorov wants to be the best in all than is engaged. He isn’t frightened by local difficulties.

You don't seriously think it's a real legitimate campaign, do you? It's not his full time job.
Um, Russian politics is a lot different from American presidential politics. Mitt Romney is campaigning full time for at least 2yrs.
Prok has time to go heli-skiing in British Columbia – which he did. He has time to attend at least 1 Nets game and at least review the progress of his $1b arena.

that article is honestly worthy of its own article on netsdaily

Yep...
"I welcome an environment in which you have to compete, to bring your A game," Prokhorov said in the e-mail. "My experience as an owner in the Euroleague was great, but basically you could spend as much as you wanted to create a championship team. It was like checkers and the N.B.A. is chess. You have to count many, many moves ahead. I believe this makes for an interesting environment, and, yes, sometimes a bumpy ride."
why is everyone always dissing checkers?
Also, how does spending money help you in checkers? can you buy extra pieces?

Back to the Hump topic........
I don’t think it is a huge secret that Hump is my favorite Net……however, my girlfriend is a big fan of all this Kardashian nonsense so I got stuck watching an episode the other night……
I freely admit that I ended up watching 3 or 4 episodes in a row and posting about how great Hump was on Facebook midway thru the second episode. It is absoutely MUST WATCH TV to see how absolutely retarded everyone in the Kardashian clan is (Lamar’s wife looks even more disgusting on the show, and that clown Scott Disick is the biggest toolbag I have ever seen in my life) and Hump just makes fun of them to their faces throughout the entire show. It is awesome. He comes across as a very very cool guy – and the kind of guy most people would want to go hang out at a bar with.
I think without a doubt Hump will come out the victor in this…..and Kris’ prediction that nobody would care about Kim when she has kids in the future – if she got pregnant today – I am not sure anyone would care about her by the time the 9 months is up…..Even though, I could see her getting knocked up to stay on the covers of magazines. In any event, Kris was the voice of reason.
Oh and the Dubai trip that she took – it was to promote a milkshake shop at a shopping mall. Imagine any other celeb tweeing non-stop about their trip to (insert foreign country) to promote a ice cream shop in a mall – they would be laughed off the map……
This might just be short term

i been sayin this all along
Orlando will not trade Dwight until the last minute because of ticket sales and a playoff berth. Orlando might not trade Dwight. If they are a top 3 seed forget about a trade. LA will not trade Pau and Bynum for Dwight.
If Olando can rack up enough wins by T/D, and (obviously) get back sufficient talent, they will still make the playoffs this year and have a fighting chance of getting to 2nd round
It definitely softens the blow of losing a Top 3 player.

The way I deal with the Dwight Howard situation...
is I don’t. I’m more interested in our present team.
We got a game tonight and that’s all I focus on.
In fact I’m more concerned right now about Brook Lopez coming back healthy.
BUT BUT BUT
Wade loves Miami, had prevoiusly won a ’chip there, and Miami has a winning culture. Lebron quite enjoys Miami, also.
Deron is not wedded to NYC area, and he had never won here. His only experience here has been negative. Deron and Dwight have option of heading elsewhere (Dallas or LA).

Past is irrelevant.
That is what Billy King is saying too with his comment. No one hates the NYC area, its supposed to be a major factor of why Dwight wants to come to the Nets actually.

I’ve been told that the New Jersey Nets aren’t too happy with the Orlando Magic. Last month, the Magic and Nets agreed to a deal involving Dwight Howard, but Orlando’s ownership stepped in and stopped it at the last second. New Jersey was upset because they thought they had landed Howard. Then, several days later, Brook Lopez fractured the fifth metatarsal in his right foot. The Nets were annoyed that the Magic backed out of the deal and they were angry when Lopez went down because he shouldn’t have even been on their roster had things gone as planned. After everything that happened, it’s hard to imagine New Jersey turning around and trading Deron Williams to Orlando, but we’ll see what happens
Wow! We had a deal in place but they stoped it!

I know I know..Its DWIGHT HOWARD..but still..
I don't agree with this...
If Howard is traded to the Lakers before the deadline, sources say New Jersey would then be forced to explore its D-Will trade options, knowing that Williams would be a virtual lock to leave come July.
If we don’t get Dwight, I have faith in Billy that he has a Plan C (Melo and Dwight).

Absolutely
But Dwight will plan on following (IMO), so i find it hard to believe, under any circumstances Dwight will commit to LA.
No that won't happen
If Dwight makes it to free agency, he’ll be a Net. To me, the only way Deron gets to Dallas is if they miraculously pull off a trade for Dwight – or Dwight goes to the Lakers.

that Cuban is clearing cap space like a madman
almost like he knows something
They can't get both though
Deron and Dwight seem to be pretty set on playing together, that’s really far fetched on Dallas. They have a very complex situation, and it’ll take some miracles for them to pull off the signing of both Deron and Dwight. That’s why I don’t see it happening. But in the case, that Dwight goes to the Lakers and signs an extension there, then you can say goodbye to Deron.
