The Nets and Mavs have sh-t to offer in a sign and trade... but the Lakers? Really? Bynum alone is more than they can hope to get from any other team. An all star caliber player is "not what you're looking for"?

Tiago Splitter
Jefferson
Anderson
Blair

to Orlando

Dwight Howard to San Antonio.

I don't get it personally, GMs can't let prior hangups affect their bottom line. Maybe they are reluctant due to his injury history?

sounds like they scared of his injury history and don't want to pay him (free agent next year after team option picked up)

Nikola Pekovic, Derrick Williams, Michael Beasley, Anthony Magic Randolph, Darko Milicic, Brad Miller, Memphis 1st, Utah 1st for Dwight and Hedo.

I hope Orlando loses him for nothing and then refuse to S&T so DH loses like 30 million over the life of contract.

I'm starting to believe that this Dwight Free Agency Fiasco is the worst of all time.

Dwight's coming out to be this huge attention whore.

Just like his baby mama.

giggity.

Sorry for derailing didn't mean to,
I just thought that gif of Dwight's Baby Mama shaking her money maker is a simliar example of how this Free Agency Fiasco is unraveling towards the deadline.

The Rockets are a really interesting suitor. They have a lot of good pieces that would resemble a "Carmelo-like" trade.

Sure lots of teams have great pieces but would Howard re-sign? I think not, hence his list. Whether people want to believe it or not, Bynum is the best piece the Magic could hope for under these circumstances...

If Bynum were signed for 3 or 4 more years, then I'd agree with you. But he's not. He has one year left which means as soon as Orlando ends the Dwight Decision Drama, the Bynum Decision Drama begins. Orlando doesn't want to put themselves through that again and downgrade again. Maybe if Pau comes with Bynum, because value-wise at least it's good, they could spin off one or both players for more assets.

Didn't Bynum say he'll play for whatever team because he still gets his money? If the Magic offer 1 dollar more than another team, he'd stay with Orlando.

Dwight will be in a Laker's jersey by trade deadline, they already contacted Phil Jackson to come and coach them.

Allen Iverson and Gilbert Arenas will work out for them next week.
