Although, the Paul trade in its original form would have given LA a huge trade exception as well. Unless the rumors of Okafor going to LA were true.

Let's hope the reworked deal includes more salary going back to LA.

And let's hope NJ signs Nene.

And i hope its not Okafor going back! he has 3/40 left but for me he is with Dwight and Chandler the best defensive center in the league. With Paul/Bryant he is probably even a better fit than Bynum...

So the Lakers would just slightly downgrade center.

I hope its Ariza the Lakers have to take back and Okafor stays in NO, sometjhing like that:

The Hornets can choose to keep Martin/Okafor/Bynum or trade them with their two year contracts...
