Funny how everyone mentions Bynum's knees, but nobody talks about Lopez's glass foot...

Possibly one day left of being a Magic fan. Never thought I would see the day.

Because its a sign and trade they would have to wait until December to trade Lopez.

If that's what we're going with, why did they let Otis go? I can't truly believe these tweets but if true I'm done with RDV.

Time to stop posting now. It's obvious you have not seen Bynum play often. He is perhaps the 3rd best defensive center behind Dwight and Chandler. Your hate for the Lakers is making you blind. I got league pass and watched a bunch of Lakers game this past season.[/quote]

ok first of all I'll post as much as I like, whenever I like. You're free to think whatever you want. I see just about every laker game, and actually attend quite a few as my uncle who is a big laker fan has season tickets. Yeah, Bumknee might be "better" then I give him credit for, but not much better. this guy is a walking injury. He might be young but has the knees of a 45 year old. A healthy bynum is one thing, but hes never healthy.[/quote]

nice rebuttal i guess? Obv you ran out of material because you know how injury prone bynum is. Bynum has played one full season (i guess two if you count the lock out this past season) since he was drafted in 05. Facts > nerd message board cat pictures. Get over yourself.

I'd guess any deal would take place before the end of business tomorrow. I'd also guess Magic will get a few offers before pulling trigger.

so i see magic are going the latino route with Gustavo Ayon and Brook Lopez like they did with Carlos Arroyo and .. uh.. bo outlaw?

At least Otis was getting a 2012 lottery pick as well.

So we're seriously going to take a 19/4/0.8 center on a bad team instead of a 19/12/2 who actually plays defense.

Sh.it. Give me Houston package. Lamb, Donatas, White, etc...

We are going to get totally f''d on this deal. Run the numbers people. It's going to be at best Howard/J-Rich/Duhon. There's just not enough money to come back to us to make these trades legal. Lopez BYC is killer.

Well, it was fun while it lasted...Back to sucking.

The Orlando Summer League gets underway tomorrow at 11 a.m. The first game on the schedule? Nets vs. Magic. You can't make this stuff up.
