Well Orton was stuck playing behind DeMarcus Cousins and Liggins was a defensive, glue guy. We don't need Orton to be another Dwight. I think his potential is probably Tyson Chandler. A guy who plays defense, gets rebounds, and blocks shots. Liggins at his best will probably be Shane Battier. A guy who plays tough defense, hustles, and hits a couple 3's a game. Those aren't bad things to have. It's what teams win championships with.

Lakers get Dwight/Hedo

Magic get Westbrook/Gasol/Perkins

Okc get Andrew Bynum/Ryan Anderson

Then flip Gasol to Houston for Scola and K.Mart

I think no matter what we do it's going to be very hard to beat all the Super Friend teams that are forming up. So the only real option is join them and try and form our own.

with the moves Otis has made so far i am convinced that a Trade is on the horizon. the salary size, the depth. It just makes sense. I think we may see two trades this year. The Dwight appeasing trade, and the Dwight trade if he's not appeased.

OKC wouldnt do that, losing westbrook isn't worth the upgrade at center (especially given injuries to bynum) + Ryno

i think wafer would be able to fill redicks role and with the addition of bbd and clark not to mention harper i think anderson also is available. So what could jj+anderson fetch us?

i think we are one GOOD move away from being a contender in the east again. Doesn't even have to be a big name just someone that will fit in well. I think baby will be a good fit even though hes not an elite talent.

If Celtics offered Rondo for Westbrook, you gotta take a shot with Bynum..but Otis is too busy trying to land Gerald Wallace for Dwight so I guess it doesn't matter :(

I wish Otis would just buckle down and bring in Iggy. We have the goods for him and our D would be much improved.
