I don`t want nothing to do with Bynum, an injured Kendrick Perkins contained Andrew Bynum. A core of Kobe Bryant, Pau Gasol and Bynum(better that we will have in years) got swept twice in a row, bringing Andrew Bynum to this team will only ensure mediocrity,also his pick and roll defense is horrible.Next year he will demand a huge contract; he could be the next Eddy Curry and after enduring Grant Hill I would avoid Bynum at all cost.

a team with dwight howard has been embarrassed by the hawks the past few years, keeping dwight will ensure that we have mediocrity for a few years since we can't get rid of our bad contracts. a healthy dwight howard shot 50% at free throws and cant close a game.

i dont know what you're getting at buddy

a team of

Lowry
JJ
Hedo
BBD
Bynum

would probably be a 6th seed in the east first of all... throw in Iggy or Josh smith come 2013 and that team is an elite team in the east

Can our Henny pull this off with his former team and mentor.

Magic outgoing
Dwight Howard
Ryan Anderson S&T
JJ Redick

Incoming
James Harden
Serge Ibaka
Kendrick Perkins

I don't know if the #s work but this definitely helps out both teams and makes sense especially since Ibaka and Harden are going to demand big $$

Bynum is probably the best player the Magic can get in any deal but if it's a straight up trade in essence the the Magic will have downgraded at the center position on a 6th seed team. They are still capped out with little or no chance of improvement.

That's why it was so imperative to dump these contracts (JRich, Baby, Duhon) to get a little more cap flexibility. Too bad Hennigan didn't have enough foresight to orchestrate something during the draft. He could have gone in on the discussions between Houston and Sacramento and maybe parlayed Dwight into 4 draft picks while simultaneously dumping some of these contracts.

Actually the second team is the better team long run cause you know your gonna suck and get a very high draft pick and restart the rebuilding process. with team 1 youll just float around the 5th seed forever and be perrennial playoff losers like the hawks. so sign me up for team 2

Anyone's get the feeling ec3 changed his mind after being told we would trade Dwight? I got that feeling when I read a number of players want Dwight gone, which I've been saying since December.

Or he thinks he will start in Dwight's place (like how Baby came thinking he would start over Ryno). :lol:

Asik agrees to three years with rockets...does that effect Dwight trade?
