<p>Dwight Howard trades to LA, Houston and Brooklyn have been &#8220;imminent&#8221; a dozen times, <a href="http://sphotos-a.xx.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ash3/564114_329458140473209_107272559_n.jpg" target="_blank">Ray Allen is on the Hea</a><a href="http://sphotos-a.xx.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ash3/564114_329458140473209_107272559_n.jpg" target="_blank">t</a> and <a href="http://www.torontosun.com/2012/07/14/raptors-waiting-for-word-on-fields" target="_blank">Landry Fields got $20 million to play in Toronto</a>.</p>

<p>The Charlotte Bobcats got a <a href="http://sports.yahoo.com/blogs/nba-ball-dont-lie/detroit-flips-ben-gordon-protected-pick-charlotte-bobcats-004222453--nba.html" target="_blank">first round draft pick AND Ben Gordon</a> out of Corey Maggette from the Pistons.</p>

<p>And that&#8217;s not everything that went down.</p>
<p>Holy crap.</p>
