Diener!! Good sign Bynum would be loved 4eva!!

I know everyone doesn't really buy into omens. I just thought about it and posted.

yes but also they all look like average players at best

Don't leave #33 hanging yet: Catledge, Strong, G-Hill, and Ryno.

He's definitely a MAX player

You must be confused. We're not talking about Nikola Pekovic here.

Lebron, if not i wouldnt be mad with Durant.

I'd prefer Jason Thompson over those two

Zmill, we are clearly talking about viable options, face it!

JT wont come here, thats why i proposed Lebron or Durant.

Rebounds Per 36 Minutes:
JT: 9.6rpg
Lebron: 7.6rpg
Durant: 7.5rpg

That can be forgiven only because you're new to the board, but don't let Deiner hear you talk about him that way...it would go badly for you, very very badly.

I want to believe we'll trade for Bynum... But deep down I know Dwight will get what he wants. We'll make a deal with Brooklyn eventually.

I hope you are wrong! But deep down, we all have that thought/fear. Either Henny wants Bynum to build on or trade with the Nets and move Lopez and KH to other teams for more picks and build through the draft.

what teams will suck next year? Move Lopez to one of those teams for a 1st rndr and KH to another lottery team for their first rndr next year. With our own horrible record we could have 3 top 10 picks.

RookieStar · Post #1315 » by **RookieStar** » Fri Jul 6, 2012 10:19 pm

Ok flame me away!!!!

I hope you guys respect me for my opinion on this. Last year, we had that troll laker fan basically shoving Bynum on our throats while saying they will get Dwight. I was opposed to it then especially since Lopez was an intriguing prospect and they still had that pick ( before the idiotic Gwall trade ) and the blossoming Marswag Brooks.

However, Lopez did get an injury so this level the playing field somewhat. vs Bynum. Heck, for all we know those two will be competing for longest time in rehab or the bench. As to the extras ( meaning picks aand extra players ) I think Brooks trump anything Lakers offer except for Gasol. Plus in terms of willingness to take back our crap ( Hedo, Jrich, Duhon, etc etc) NJ will probably be more willing.

So I dunno about you all but I'm kinda torn. What's really preventing me from wanting to trade Dwight to NJ is for the sake of principle. I don't like people manipulating or forcing their way over a team's right just so he could get his way.

Anyway, the best scenario would probably be trading him to a third team. Wherein we get a decent big man, get rid of our bad contracts and get intriguing new prospects. Would this third scenario be a win-win for us all?

Dwight Howard to Brooklyn nearly died when the Nets agreed to MLE deal with Mirza Teletović. Now, door is still open: http://tinyurl.com/79gw94h

Isn't Gasol contract for more $ and longer than Hedo? I don't know if I would want...

i guess we could flip him though.
