^^Dude just stop. People are laughing at you. Bynum shot significantly better from the floor and has about as many OFFENSIVE REBOUNDS AS LOPEZ HAS REBOUNDS. PERIOD.

But anyways moving on:

Out: Dwight, Turk, Anderson S n T

La
In: Dwight, Beasley, Anderson
Out: MWP, Bynum, gasol

head-to-head statistics (outside of talking trash to your friends) are about as useful as a poop flavored lolly pop

I liked everything in your trade idea except the MWP part. That guy would drive me crazy being in a magic uniform

Whoa, that is an interesting trade. Wonder what Rob is thinking right now due to the potential trade offers he will receive in the upcoming days. That is striking though.

Bynum trade makes sense only if we got another star player or two. Now thats different now we can compete. But Bynum and picks is not my choice of a trade.

Well to each their own. I'd Take Derrick and MWP any day. Defense would be stellar on the front line with MWP and BYnum.

Like i care about people on the internet laughing at me, i mean wow that really hurts man!! :cry:


And do you even watch laker games? Bynum sucks and is just overrated by the LA media. If lopez was in LA (where he would have kobe and gasol next to him), people here would be screaming to trade for him.

Oh and btw, lopez actually averages more Offensive rebounds per game than bynum for their entire careers, so please stop with the "has about as many OFFENSIVE REBOUNDS AS LOPEZ HAS REBOUNDS. PERIOD." crap

Bynum over Lopez all day every day...

Now, how long until we get a trade done? I want them to be patient but there aren't many things to go through at this point. We know who wants him and what they're willing to give up for him. I guess Rob and his crew are trying to figure out if we can rebuild quickly with a centerpiece like Bynum or would we be better off going with young pieces like Holiday/Turner and focus on tanking.

Lakers are my favorite team to watch actually (outside of the Magic)

Bynum sucks? :lol: :lol:

Trading Dwight for Bynum is like trading Superman for Batman. While Brook Lopez is Captain Planet.

If Rob did the Philly trade and was able to convince them to take Hedo while giving us Elton for the 1 year I would happily do that trade

FYI - I only want Brand because of the $18 million expiring deal.

Alright guys, if we're going into tank mode why would allstars and vets want to come here? If Dwight is gone, which looks very likely at this point, stop thinking about guys in their primes for free agent signings next summer. Now, if we trade for Bynum, feel free to continue.

Great job, i live in socal and am FORCED to watch bynum, have seen most of his games (most my friends are laker fans) and yes, the guy sucks.

And if anything
Dwight=Superman
Lopez=Captain Planet
Bynum=Aquaman

Personally i dont want either bynum or lopez on this team and would rather take the rockets deal of potential (3 rookies and lowry) and the cap space to sign good players to fill out the roster, but if i was a team and was down by 1 with 23 secs left and had to give the ball to either Bynum or Lopez, ill take lopez all day

I think the problem is you haven't seen Brook Lopez play, but I'll happily agree with you on the Rockets front.
