Not bad for Indy if they can get him.

This is complete BS. Neither teams have needs at the five.

Houston definitely needs a back up 5 so they can trade Asik

If Indy are really interested, it is only to keep him out of a Heat uniform.

Asik is impossible to move and isn't going anywhere. Morey already said that publicly.

If Indy signs him heat probably dont 3 speat...if Miami signs him...the east is easier then it already is.....Whoever signs Bynum icreases their chance for a title...Houston could sign him and put Dwight back at his true PF position

Exactly! The only team that will consider Asik and his poison pill contract is the Knicks, but it doesn't seems Morey is interested in JR and Ron-Ron.

Don't laugh. He is right. D-How was a PF before he came to the NBA. But since then he became a five and thrived in that role. The Rockets tried to move him back to PF and pair him up with Asik. We all know how that goes.

I wonder how well Bynum would play with a PG like Rondo, nevertheless the more realistic and understandable situation for him to end up in would be the Rockets, the Pacers doesn't really make much sense at all to me.

From his performance with the Cavs the past few months, I think the answer is very well. How many seasons his feet can hold up is another question though.

The only reason the Rockets/Pacers want him is so that OKC/Miami/whomever is in the way doesn't get him.
