LeBron & Melo both said Dwight just has to do "whats right for him and his family"...

Take a guess as to what LeBron & Melos reasons where when they bolted?... yeah....

I saw some SAC trade scenarios thrown around earlier so if we "have" to trade and Howard and LAL is willing to give up Bynum and Gasol for him then do a BIG 4 team trade....

ORL Out: Howard, Anderson, Turk, Jameer, Duhon, BBD
ORL In: Bynum, D Cousins, Tyreke Evans, Beasley, Jason Thompson

LAL Out: Bynum, Gasol
LAL In: Howard, Turk, Jameer, BBD

SAC Out: D Cousins, Tyreke
SAC In: Anderson, D Williams, Duhon

MIN Out: D Williams, Beasley
MIN In: Gasol


ORL New Lineup:

PG: Tyreke/Ish/FA
SG: JRich/JJ/Liggins
SF: Beasley/Wafer/Q
PF: D Cousins/Harper
C: Bynum/Thompson/Orton


Maybe Philly would take Beasley/JRIch/1st rnd pick for Iggy, that would be a sick lineup of...

Tyreke/Ish/FA
JJ/Wafer/Liggins
Iggy/Q/Liggins
D Cousins/Harper
Bynum/Thompson/Orton


a quick look at all teams starting lineups;

LAL: Nelson/Kobe/Turk/BBD/Howard

SAC: Jimmer/Thornton/D Williams/Anderson/Hayes

MIN: Rubio/Johnson/Webster/Love/Gasol

:lol: nice. But not really, I am about 90% convinced he is gone. Just thought it was weird how Melo was reacting at specific times during his little interview. If the Devos shooting down his rumored requests are true, plus dealing with an amateur front office like ours I do not blame him for wanting to leave.

Here's the hoopsword or whatever that show was on earlier Sunday.

http://www.thegameradio.com/?p=1176

They say one thing they've heard this weekend from Dwight's people is he's going to shop his destinations in July and go wherever promises him a championship in 2012. That year. Not 2013. He's not looking at past experience, but 2012 and a ring. They also say Orlando and NJ do not offer him that chance and LA and Dallas offer championship caliber owners, GMs, and coaches.

Even better. Maybe Golden State offers David Lee and Curry for Dwight because it would be great if Golden State could offload Lee on Orlando.

Then finishes with Dwight's people say maybe the best option is to pick up his option and play another year in Orlando.

Promises an NBA championship in 2012!!!! Wow he needs to promise to make 80% of his FT then, Dwight needs to work on his offensive game more, spend your entire summer with Hakeem O.

Do not listen to that idiot Kyler.

Dwight does NOT want to play in LA their ownership situation is a MESS, Jim Buss has a bad reputation around the league, and Dwight does NOT want to play second fiddle to KOBE

GSW? LOL Dwight already flatly rejected any notion of ever wanting to go there.

I think if you put McGee back then, he would get those blocks just as easily as Russell did. Russell's athleticism was well ahead of the players of his time, and that's about it.
