Not for Dwight, right?

I mean what did he expect... he's 35/36 years old, coming off an injury... had a pretty good season statistically... but he's not in the Knicks' future plans... he needs to quit fooling himself.

I don't think he's sweating too much... but I bet he was wishing he wasn't 30 years old... I'm sure the Knicks have entertained the thought of trading him for CP3

So all has gone quiet on the Ellis/Magic front huh?

MagicFan41 · Post #1339 » by **MagicFan41** » Thu Dec 8, 2011 8:30 pm

Dwight would have to take a SUBSTANTIAL pay cut to sign with the Lakers to whoever suggested that. Kobe is $28mil, CP3 will be something like $17 mil I believe? That's $45 mil right there, even if they got rid of every other contract in the books (amnesty Metta, somehow trade Luke Walton who doesnt even play, along with Steve Blake, then convince Fisher not to take his option....factor in all of the cap holds.....) they could only offer Dwight like $10 mil or something? Not gonna happen. That Kobe contract is gonna screw them for the next few years.

^^I agree DJ...for somebody who himself said he's a professional is getting a bit too heated...It's a business and this kind of ish happens...But really he doesn't have a choice of teams...He's basically a reluctant Mercenary at that point...Forced to work for the highest bidder
