Thug is a bit harsh. I remember Dwight throwing a few cheap shots of his own. Young players sometimes do stupid things. I would like to think a player in thier early 20s can still mature.

You give him way too much credit.

Clippers: Gordon, Aminu, Bledso, Jordan, Min pick, Clippers pick for Howard, Turk, and Nelson
Bulls: Noah, Deng, Gibson, Brewer, Bobcats pick, Chicago pick for Howard and Turk

I doubt the Clippers give up that much, but you should damn sure try to get them to

Don't Forget OKC

Forgot about OKC. Would love Westbrook, Harden, Ibaka, and a pick for D12 and Jameer.

Not too bad. We'd basically be the Lakers without a perimeter scorer but wirh a good PG and decent bench.

You forgot my guy, Von Wafer.....being the prolific scorer that he is, we should be fine.

Lol I think otis said this cuz the dude can score, did so in college and was averaging 19ppg in the italian leaguhe he was currently playing in, that's probably why otis said that

Anyone listening to ESPNFlorida 1080? (http://www.espnflorida.com/espn-1080-station/)

Kyler is on and he just said that he (and several of his cohorts), have talked to Bynum and people in his camp, and they say that Bynum would love to be here. They said "He looks at Dwight's situation down here and dreams of being in a similar one.".

He would no doubt be the number one option, as opposed to the third. He is only 24, plenty of time to turn around. Is he Dwight? No, but he is good.

I'm warming up to him.

Honestly, I'm going to be quite sad getting CP3 in a Dwight trade...

We wanted to team Dwight up with CP3, and when we get him, it's to team him up with a bad-knees Bynum!

Man F this... just get good picks, lets rebuild through next years epic draft.

is he suggesting this is for real, or just asking us to envision something unlikely.
because there little point in that trade if paul walks after a season

you guys are delusional....it doesn't matter who we get, Chris Paul would still leave Orlando for New York

Hopefully, this isn't Otis's dumbass plan....

Ryan + Liggins for Stephen Jackson
Hedo + Redick for Camby

Dwight
Baby
Captain
J.Rich
Meer'

Then we see where Dwight stands at the deadline.. That's a tough lineup.

That's good news! If hecan stay healthy, he is an absolute beast. Anybody that says different, definitely has not seen what he looks like when healthy and fed the ball.

Pau and Bynum for Dwight is probably the best trade we'll get since Dwight made it known he wants out and only has a few markets he'd like to go to. My only issue would be that we would be sending another superstar center to LA, but I imagine getting two allstar caliber player in return would be less of a blow than if Dwight just ran away there in the summer.

I talk. I write. I listen. And the views I express are mine and not anyone I work for (c 2012, World Glomulous Toys, Inc.).

Dont believe anything that Steve Kyler or Rudolph say because they always have their so called "sources" but usually just rephrase or re-tweet what the above mentioned people say and say my sources confirm......
