How exactly is that a threat? They lose both ways.

We trade Dwight to LAL and get something back while Deron walks from NJ because they couldn't bring in the help he needed.

At least NJ gets something back from Deron. If we trade Dwight to LAL, NJ is F'ed.

I'm pretty much to the point where if we can get Gasol/Bynum for Dwight/Turk then I say do it. Then turn around and trade for Gasol for the KMart/Scola Houston package or try and get Ellis/Lee (or Bieds) from GS. Then try and use the TPE to get a defensive wing.

this is exactly what i don't understand........If you were the only superstar would you be content with this roster? I actually feel this year's roster is decent and who knows but he wants a ring and Otis has made awful moves.

I personally do not understand how anyone in the FO looks at Otis after he traded for his guy Arenas then we are forced to amnesty him (rightfully so) but how we even found ourself in that position is Smith's fault.

if AK is signed for anything longer than 1 year, you gotta believe they feel confident they can/will make a trade with Orlando for DH.

In clearer words:

Dwight: Fire Otis and Stan.

Alex: I'm an optimist. I'd rather not because I think you guys can work it out. If you leave, then I'll get rid of them.

I'm proposing that we keep Dwight and just threaten to trade him to LAL. Thus, Deron resigns because he's in Orlando WITH Dwight. Dallas would be NJ's only other trading partner (since that's the only team that Deron would walk to). Believe it or not, we can offer a better package than Dallas.
