"The New Jersey Nets are trying to rebound from the disappointment of their failed pursuit of Carmelo Anthony by swinging a blockbuster trade for the Utah Jazz's Deron Williams before Thursday's 3 p.m. ET deadline, sources said on Wednesday.
The Nets and Jazz, sources said, are closing in on a multi-team trade that would send Williams to New Jersey, with the Nets' Derrick Favors and Devin Harris going to Utah.
The deal, scheduled for completion later Wednesday after a trade call with the league office, would also involve the Golden State Warriors and bring multiple draft picks to Utah (ESPN)."
Which now has been confirmed..
"The Jazz have agreed to trade All-Star Deron Williams to the Nets as part of a three-team trade, Ken Berger has confirmed (CBS Sports)."
This is getting out of control. The East is going to be so stacked for years to come. The Knicks are already on their way with Melo/Amare, Heat have Lebron/Wade/Bosh, Celtics have a year or two left with Garnett/Rondo/Pierce/Allen, and the Bulls have Rose/Boozer.
Here is how I see all this playing out. I think Dwight Howard will eventually head to the Nets. I think Chris Paul will head to the Knicks, making life miserable for everyone in the East. At least for once the regular season will be exciting.
You have to feel bad for the Jazz after losing their long time coach, and now their best player.
