I think we're down to a) Lakers manning up and sending both bigs to us and or the Houston 3-way or b) NJ finding a way to get us something better.

I LOVE your sig


Thanks, I'm happy to roll a new one out for the new season. The other one was getting a little to real for me to stand.

He's doing it on purpose... I'm sure he remembers the LeBron thing and just having fun with it. To be fair, he wore Magic hats before and after all this crap went down.

@DwightHoward lol. Haha. Ya. He's still a loser for wearing so many different hats though!

Dwight Howard
@Marinaho imma wear one everyday

Seeing as all Dwight, Jameer & Redick signs/posters around amway are all magically gone, Im now anticipating the most lopsided trade of the past decade...

...If you thought the Gasol/Kawme trade was bad, Otis will soon show you how a horrible deal truly is supposed to look.

So Kobe wanting a trade out of LA... is that a real rumor, or is it ESPN just being BSPN?

I think they are just media happy about dwight and cp3 wanting trades that if any superstar hints he's mad about his team suddenly he "wants out".

would be pretty cool though if he did want out. Hi Kobe in a magic uniform. :lol:

My guess is the latter. Didn't this start with Stephen-A on Mike and Mike this morning with speculation that that was going to happen because he is mad about Odom and then missing out on CP3? I heard some of it, but had not heard that he wanted a trade, just that he may ask.

If kobe does want a trade that will slow uP the deal for howard. I wouldt read into the posters thing. They do t work that fast. The old shard and other traded players were up for months.

If Kobe requested a trade, I guess we all know what's next...

Dwight will be gift-wrapped to LA just in time for Christmas.

Whatever we do we need to wait until after jan 1. We should keep him through the allstar so it is as akward as possible for him.
