[Mexi]

they have assets though
including a big giant 7 foot asset

 

[RipCity32]

Meh, neither team are competing anytime soon.

Lakers aren't going to pull a Gasol deal again.

 

[Mexi]

Bynum/Odom for Dwight+

completely possible

or if Deron isnt going to stay in NJ, one of the reasons they traded for him was to try and re-sign him, but if not, then deal him
now DH is going to have a heart attack

idk. to say the lakers wont be competing soon is kind of crazy. unless you mean soon as in tomorrow, may 10th. then yes

 

[RipCity32]

LA won't get Dwight.
Nor do I see how adding Dwight but removing the other two makes them THAT much better.

Plus Kobe is way past his prime. And Pau is soft yet again.
Still no PG either.

Dwight, and CP3 aren't gonna be traded so easily. The Hornets GM already said they are planning to build a champion around him. Same thing with Dwight Howard, they are gonna try their asses off to keep them, not just say "Hey give them to the Lakers broz."

The Magic are held down on some horrible ocntracts. I dont see how they are going to to get people around Dwight. And the guys they got are gonna be hard to trade with the contracts they have.

I'm just pointing out it's NOT just like DWIGHT HOWARD LAKERS ITS A WRAP!!!!!

JA Adande reported today that Dwight wants to be a Laker

Ric Bucher a few weeks ago said he expects Orlando to trade Dwight this offseason

 

[RipCity32]

There is also 28 other teams that want Dwight, and 1 team who doesn't care where he goes as long as they get equal talent.

of course not
but it's definitely possible

Dwight to Lakers for Bynum (other pieces in the trade as well for both sides)
juts makes a ton of sense for both teams

as for CP, i never even mentioned him lol
i did bring up DWill though. thats something to keep an eye on.

No it isn't.

DH12 to the Nets make the most sense in the grand scheme of things.

I'm talking about the arrogant other Laker fans too, who think they are gonna build a god team, and win 19 championships.

same could have been said for melo
it's a similar case
thats the only reason i mentioned how he wants to be a laker. if it was a normal situation, it wouldnt matter

 

[DannyColtsBro]

I know I sound like a hater here, but I think D12 to the Nets would be better for him than D12 to the Lakers. I don't think Dwight is gonna be happy with Kobe shooting under 45 pct, and not giving him enough touches.

 

[Mexi]

No it isn't.

DH12 to the Nets make the most sense in the grand scheme of things.

as long as he isn't re-signed, yes it is.

as for JA, i dont know. But i doubt he would make something like that up. he's pretty reputable

Deron can't sign until a new CBA is in place, so it isn't something to keep an eye on.

Adande works for ESPN, of course he would make up pro-Laker propaganda.

idk if dwight wants to be with the Heat or Chicago or New York though

the west just has old dallas and okc.

Good point, but what about Memphis? You don't think they can be a contender next year too? I mean Z-Bo got time left, and Rudy Gay is still there. If they can stick to what they are doing in these playoffs, why not?

I hope you're not grouping the Knicks with Miami and Chicago.
