Still would have preferred Lamb and that TO pick.

When have we ever had trouble luring free agents when we have cap space? And hopefully with the rebuild Hennigan can sell prospective free agents the idea os playing with an up and coming group, and maybe by then we'll have drafted our next franchise player(s). A lot of guys wanted the OKC model. Well here you have it.
We will now. We now have a history of pissing off stars. Again:
Shaq
Penny
TMac
G Hill
Dwight
That is EVERY star we've ever had and we pissed all of them off.

We basically just traded for the 24th, 25th, and 30th draft pick

probably 20-something for the Nuggets this year. 2015 for the 76ers depends if bynum resigns and if he does id pencil that for 20 something. 2017 for the lakers and i can see that being a early 20 because no Pau, Nash or Kobe for dwight to play with

damn, I totally forgot they didn't have a pick until 2017. That's even worse. We did get GS 2nd round pick though!

Here's the irony...
Bynum's numbers are going to go up in Philly while Dwight's have a good chance of dropping a bit in LA because of all the other offensive options.
I can easily see Bynum being a 23/14 guy in Philly.
If we had gotten at least one lottery pick to go with our own inevitable lottery pick - I could have stomached it.
Philly is going to have a great team to watch. I think Jrue Holiday and Andrew Bynum will make each other better. And Hawes will be far more effective moving to the 4, getting open looks from double teams Bynum draws.
Jrue
J-Rich
Turner
Hawes
Bynum

No need to hate on the Lakers. Hate on the man pulling the trigger.
