Nets general manager Billy King says he won’t let any information about the Dwight Howard trade negotiations infiltrate the team or the media.

He also denies that such negotiations exist, insisting he hasn’t talked to Orlando GM Otis Smith since the February trade deadline.

“It won’t continue. I promise you that,” King said. “The circus-like atmosphere that was surrounding last season won’t happen this season, I promise you that.”

“I worry about (the effects it has on players). There won’t be any leaks or anything coming from this organization because there won’t be many people who know what I’m doing. When I say it won’t be many, I mean (myself).”
