I have a hard time believing that he really wouldn't sign an extension in LA with his fiance being from LA. That and having the opportunity to win with Kobe and Pau.

it's already come out from Dwight's camp that he wouldn't sign an extension there....Dwight's Agent has his eyes set on Brooklyn....so no Bynum.....Lakers would be stupid to give up Bynum for a rental...

I'm saying that I don't buy the report or his reps

He also said Lakers were one of the 3 teams he would be willing to play for.

Still thinking we should wait it out. I haven't heard any deals with a chance of happening that actually interest me. We've been playing well recently, even the lost tonight isn't anything to be ashamed about on a back to back.

The "trade him for anything" crowd, just think about what's right for the team. Trading Dwight for crap would just be stupid.

Exactly this. Until something happens I will hold off on the self righteous fury and such.

Bynum is the only logical choice; if he's being offered.

I read somewhere that he was going to stay with the team and play some type of role for them.

No.



Man, that would be so sweet....

After him screwing with us so much, it would be great to give him one last middle finger.

I'm cool with Bynum, especially if we can upgrade our supporting cast by taking some spoils on a Gasol trade.

I, unfortunately, also feel like we won't trade him. He's probably tricked management into thinking he'll actually stay.

Yep, Dwight said he's not signing an extension for anyone, not even the Nets. he makes more money if he goes into free agency.
