In what has to be one of the stranger stories of the season, the deal that sent Tyson Chandler from the Hornets to the Oklahoma City Thunder for Joe Smith and Chris Wilcox is null and void this morning, after Chandler failed his physical on Wednesday. The teams heard about the news after their games Wednesday night, and Chris Paul, when speaking to reporters about it, said that the team” rejoiced” when they found out Chandler was heading back to New Orleans. So where does this leave the Thunder? Now that their deal for Chandler fell through, there is still thoughts that they may look for a last minute move for either Joe Smith or Chris Wilcox. Stay Tuned…

In other trade deadline news, NY Newsday is reporting talks have begun between the Chicago Bulls and New York Knicks that could send Larry Hughes to the Knicks for Malik Rose and Jerome James. Hughes, whose contract expires after next season, will earn $13.6 million in 2009-10. Malik Rose contract is expiring, and Jerome James has a player option on his deal for next year.

Just when you think you can figure out the Nets, this leaks out. The Newark Star-Ledger is reporting that the New Jersey Nets have been in “preliminary talks” with the Cavaliers, Spurs, Bulls, and Raptors(ironically) about the potential of moving the former Slam Dunk champion in the days leading up to the All-Star break. Carter, who is owed over $33 Million dollars on his contract over the next two seasons, is more likely to land in Cleveland of the four places, as the Cavs are interested in dumping Wally Szczerbiak along with Delonte West. The Spurs would have to part with Roger Mason Jr along with Michael Finley and Bruce Bowen. Before you rule out that deal, the Nets may actually help the Spurs. New Jersey would more than likely cut both Bowen or Finley after a trade, which would clear the way for one or both of them to return to the Spurs before the playoff rosters are set. So, in essence, the Spurs would get Carter for just Roger Mason. Stay tuned… [click to continue…]
