Lakers would have to also send Orlando draft picks and take on bad contracts according to Woj

Who the hell does the Magic think the Lakers are ? Some down trodden desperate skank ?

Yo Orlando go take your weak a** trade request to some other punk team that may bite.

One more thing, this new CBA wants us to share our big time revenue with suck ass losing, low spending teams then teams like Orlando just think we should clean up their BS by wiping out their bad contracts too ?

Hell Naw the Lakers not going out like that.

I starting to think that they should send Dwight to Houston or Atlanta and call it a day. Let Dwight sort this mess out himself. But I think Dwight will be in a new uniform by the end of the season.

exactly. We are not going to get bamboozled like theyre gettin with dwight goin back and forth. We either get lock down guarantees and a solid deal both sides, or we dont play ball. period. we walk with our 2-7footers and they'll be the ones stuck with CRAP when howard walks out on them for nothin in return.

That's just how Deep is, he's been like this ever since I've known him. May as well roll with it.

But I'd rather take Turkoglu back than Richardson.

I wouldn't take on any salary. Bynum+McBob is my offer, if they say no so be it.

Fegan's connections with the Barclay Center perhaps. Either way I doubt the Lakers are too excited about this. He goes to Brooklyn let em.

It's not LA. It's Kobe he doesn't want to play with.

1) Kobe "I eat first and second" Bryant

2) Then you have the obvious problem of Howard never getting any MVP or Finals MVP votes because the team is Kobe's. He can shoot 6-24 and still get the MVP based off reputation, as Pau Gasol situation has shown you.

3) Then you have the situation where Howard's youth and talent would only be used by the Laker franchise and fans to prop up Kobe's twilight years. He would be a whipping boy when things go bad, same as Odom, Gasol, and Bynum.

Howard wants his own team, a better situation, and with a willing passer unlike Kobe. In Brooklyn, Howard gets a brand new arena, with a rich owner, a great willing passing PG in Deron, and the team is his.

Dwight wants to be the man and have say in front office. Good luck getting that in LA, Buss didn't talk to Kobe when he hired Mike Brown. Yeah he sure going to get a say.

Suck it up and just play

Dwight wants to be the man and this is his main problem. If I were him I would join Lakers. Kobe will be the man for maybe two more years. Then this will be Howard's team. He will be the man for maybe 6-7 years. After two years he will be the only one with contract in LA, Kobe will resign for a vet and Lakers will have enough cap space to add another all star + solid role players. He will be contender for the rest of his career. I really can't understand him.

:lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: Kobe will never give up his role until the Lakers force Kobe to retire or get traded. He wants to chuck away as the alpha dog until he retires.

They could always ship Kobe off to the Wizards and let him do the final MJ mimic, change his number to 45.

Not even close J, just being real about things......and I won't hold back. Over half the guys on the Laker board you included keep clamoring for this clown to be a Laker. That said any and every piece of news that comes out you guys jump on it and the overall feeling is that you guys want this to happen. I don't care if it's negotiations or not......if I'm running a million dollar business, I'm not going to fall victim to a deal that will cost me millions too.

Facts are facts bro, and the facts are simple to me.....

Orlando want's to come out roses in any trade with any team

Dwight doesn't want to play here in LA period and had said so

These 2 facts make it real easy for me to say screw that fool........we just have to dig in a fix our own damn problems. In other word man the hell up and don't look for a hand out.
