Basically
Suns Get: Bynum, Harden
Suns Trade: Gortat, Dudley, Marshall, Frye and 5 of our remaining 9 picks in the next 3 drafts.

Lakers Get: Hedo, Frye, D12
Lakers Trade: Gasol, Bynum

Magic Get: Gasol, Perkins, Dudley, Marshall, 2 1st round picks from suns, 2 2nd round picks from suns.
Magic Trade: D12, Hedo, J-Rich

Thunder Get: Gortat, J-rich, 1st round pick from suns
Thunder Trade: Harden, Perkins

Why for Suns.
Rebuilding team trying to get back into contention. A core of Beasley, Harden, Dragic, Kieff and Bynum(assuming all play up to their potential) would keep us in the top 4 year in year out.

Suns Line-up
Dragic/Bassy
Harden/Brown
Beasley/Wes/Tucker
Scola/Kieff
Bynum/FA??


Why for Lakers.
This is a no brainier. They want D12 and will do probably anything to get him without having to trade Kobe. Also Jamison/Frye rotation at the 4 spreads the floor even more for Nash to work the pick-n-roll with D12 as well as provide more room for Kobe to play ISO.

Lakers Line-up
Nash/Blake
Kobe/Ebanks??
Artest/Hedo
Frye/Jamison
D12/Hill

Why for Magic.
They get rid of Hedo's and J-rich's contract while getting something in return for D12.

Magic Line-up
Marshall/Duhon
Dudley/JJ reddick
Q-Rich/Earl Clark??
Gasol/Big Baby
Perkins/Ayon??

Why for Thunder.
It is no secret that they have a tough decision to make choosing Harden or Ibaka. This is one way to let Harden go to a place he likes while getting something in return. Gortat will give them the one thing they lack which is a player who can play with his back to the basket and give them some easy points. J-rich is a stop gap to make up for the offensive production loss from letting Harden go.

Thunder Line-up
Westy/Mayno
Thabo/J-rich
Durant/Cook
Ibaka/Collison
Gortat/Aldrich

Horrible for all teams except the Suns.

Care to explain or are you just hating cause I'm a Suns fan. Thunder get better, Lakers get ALOT better. Magic get what they want.

The Lakers lose Bynum AND Gasol... They are a better team with them both. The initial deal discussed the past few weeks include only Bynum

[Kjthunder]

Thunder do not get better, Jason richardson is pretty much washed up at this point. and gortat does not make up for the production of harden. I'll keep harden and perkins instead

[OKC]

add scola/beasly to the lakers.
otherwise theyre giving up to much

[gambitx777]

the suns are giving up to much, plus they can not trade marshall right now. AND i doubt they magic want and aging PF in gasol and a long term large deal like perk has.

[LJEATON26]

If okc wanted to upgrade at center why not just offer harden, perkins and two 1st round picks for Dwight?

[mdm692]

Obviously nohere knows how to read. Suns take Bynum without commitment from him which is what stopped the Dwight for Bynum swap. With D12 in LA the offense will change no need for Pau also the Lakers have a 2-3 year period where they are top 3 team in the NBA. After those 2-3 years they have tons of cap space with an expiring Nash, Frye, Kobe, Hedo and D12 locked in long term. Jrich maybe washed up but all the thunder need is for him to hit 3's and Gortat>>>>>perkins offensively but defensively Gortat</Perkins overall they get better. The magic don't want to be the Bobcats they keep Gasol and Perkins as their frontcourt and then have bunch of cap and picks to stay relevant while they retool.
