The subject of trading Dwight Howard has already demanded billions and billions of bytes of digital ink and dead tree column inches as beat writers and bloggers cover and speculate about the disgruntled Orlando Magic center. Given all those resources it only makes sense that the latest Howard trade rumors involved a complex web of three, possibly four, teams along with more than a dozen players and draft picks.
Adrian Wojnarowski offered a glimpse of the latest scenario via Twitter:

Those teams are reported to be the Nets, where Howard would end up, and the Cleveland Cavaliers. The deal could go down on Monday. The Magic brass is reportedly meeting to discuss the particulars Monday morning says Alex Kennedy of Hoops World.
Magic brass will meet at 9 a.m. to discuss if they should pull the trigger on the three-team deal with the Nets and Cavaliers.
