Adrian Wojnarowski of Yahoo! Sports is reporting the Orlando Magic and Los Angeles Lakers are crafting a four-team deal – including the Denver Nuggets and Philadelphia 76ers – that would send center Dwight Howard to the Lakers.

Wojnaraowski reports league sources consider the deal “serious” if not yet “imminent.”

There are multiple moving parts in the fluid talks, but the framework of a possible deal includes Howard and Denver forward Al Harrington going to the Lakers, Philadelphia guard Andre Iguodala going to the Nuggets, Los Angeles center Andrew Bynum moving to the 76ers, and Los Angeles forward Pau Gasol and Denver guard Arron Affalo going to the Magic, sources told Yahoo! Sports.

    Just so long as Bynum and Gasol dont spend all next season staring back at each other across the floor ! Bynum is a Worthy Man in the Middle; A True Center, who deserves more support from his Forwards. I. suppose Bynum was just to Hot, for Brown, Kupchak, and the Junior Buss to handle, so now they have to go out and buy Kobe another Shaquille O Neil !

    Lakers dont want his wasteful contract.

     Richard7 Maybe more likely... but there's no way the magic take Gasol.  They would surely prefer Bynum, yet they haven't made that trade.  This seems like a step in the wrong direction for nearly everyone involved.

    Lakers would be crazy to include Pau in the trade.

    This trade is no where near as good as the one the Nets were offering Orlando. The Orlando GM is nuts!!!

     CraigNyawela For sure, unless there are draft picks involved.  Why would the Magic want Gasol?  The trade makes no sense and it isn't going to get done.

    ESPN Trade machine says Magic would be over $2.2 million. It also says this trade is totally gay and wont happen.
