Wait, how long had the player posters/graphics been up? Long enough that they could conceivably be due for a change, or not very long at all?

Weren't the VC and Shard ones up for awhile? I know they still were a couple weeks after the trades.

If we decide to trade Dwight+Turkoglu's contract. Don't you think that he could be a useful player to sign to be our starting SF? I do.

I want nothing to do with Travis OutLOL.

No thanks. I would imagine the AK47 to Nets deal is about to materialize.

So its basically between the Nets and Lakers for who gets Dwight,the Nets have to get a 3rd team involved in any trade to get Dwight,and the Lakers is basically Bynum,Gasol for Dwight,Turk or no deal.

So is Paul still opting out? Thought I heard he wasn't opting out if he got shipped to the Clippers.

I think we're down to a) Lakers manning up and sending both bigs to us and or the Houston 3-way or b) NJ finding a way to get us something better.

I read some where that the Magic don't like Bynum because they think his knees suck. I would imagine the Lakers would even need a 3rd team involved to get Howard too.

I think the Magic will just keep Howard if some one doesn't blow them away, which right now, no one is even close.

Why are we always making trade scenarios for Dwight...haven't we explored every possible trade already? If anything lets make trade scenarios that can keep Dwight :o

I think lakers will give up both bigs because kobe is getting pissed off at their FO. I think dwight and kobe plus a bunch of scrubs could be a top 4 seed in west.

And they still get swept in the playoffs by the Mavs. People keep thinking Kobe is going to turn back into Kobe of 3 years ago. He is only going to get worse from this point on.
