Today has been one of the busiest rumors day since we first launched LayupDrill.com. ESPN is reporting the Nets and Magic are in serious discussions to bring Vince Carter to the already loaded Orlando Magic for Rafer Alston, Tony Battie, and Courtney Lee. Orlando, who had been quietly laying low while other title contenders made moves this week, may steal the thunder from the Cleveland Cavaliers by landing a player that Cleveland was looking at acquiring themselves.
The Nets are in a cost-cutting phase right now, and it was just a matter of time before Carter would be dealt this summer. By obtaining Alston and Battie, the Nets would be getting two more expiring contracts. The Magic, on the other hand, would add another weapon, and if they are able to re-sign Hedo Turkoglu, would be the favorites to come out of the East again.
