I know not a lot of teams would actually employ the strategy, but down the stretch of a close game, or even at the end of quarters, this may be a liability for the Lakers- if opposing coaches are smart.

There's no way to foresee what actual game situations will be like, but having Dwight in during late 4th quarters could be a sliver of daylight for a coach looking to utilize an advantage. With Bynum, the Lakers didn't have this problem (as opposed to a lack of defensive anchor, I say that's a good tradeoff- but I digress).

I, for one, am excited to see Pop use it



Still can't do it past the 2 min mark in the 4th. The most important part of any close game.

LOL, yup, I was up in the press box. It was so weird, because I happened to look down at the field right when it happened. They have a bunch of hilarious videos on Youtube.

I just read about this. The trade proposal in the wiretap sounds better than this, for Orlando. I thought getting Gasol, Afflalo and Vucevic and picks was a good deal for them. This...this sounds like they're getting boned. LOL! Even Otis Smith is shaking his head. Lakers get Dwight for Bynum and a crappy pick, and they only have to take on 2 so-so contracts. Lakers win this trade, if true. PEACE.

You can if Dwight gets the ball. Nash's decision making offsets this though, as well as Gasol's existence.

Bynum was better than bad back Dwight, you have Howard for 1 year before he begs and cries to be in Brooklyn. You guys still have no answer for The King

The Orlando Magic will receive AT LEAST three first-round picks. Source says they may get a fourth pick as well.


4th pick, now it all makes sense. looking at u philly or denver, time to pony up.


Oh. A 4th pick? Thank goodness. For a second there, I was going to call the Orlando local authorities for witnessing a sexual assault.
12-70. Never Forget. Moment of silence for all the fans lost during that battle.

Get Dwight, complain about Duhon? Come on. :-?

That's like winning the lottery and complaining about paying taxes.

Lakers probably sent out McBob's godly 3 mil expiring.
