Source tells me ‪#Lakers‬ notify player he might be sent to ‪#Magic‬ as part of Bynum-for-Howard deal. Full story: http://www.pepperonsports.com

Oh snaps. It's getting close.

The one player they informed was Andrew Bynum lol.

The term "pepperoni tumblr site" kinda speaks for itself.

that's what i fear man......Bynum is a championship Center and i would be content having him here...but what about everyone else? what about Hedo? what about j-bitch? what about Duhon and Big Baby?

J-Rich is a guy that can be moved imo.
I like BBD next to Bynum. A lot of championship experience between them.
Hedo will be a moved at the deadline because his contract is nonguaranteed in 2013.
Duhon also has a nonguaranteed deal in 2013.

Those players will kill us next year. But we should be free of them or at least some by 2013.

Hedos deal is guranteed 6 million in 2013 and Duhons is guranteed for 1.5 million.

i think we might be able to Flip Anderson, Jrich and Duhon into Evans hopefully.

If goes down at least we can laugh at the nets fans who just would not stop saying they were getting Dwight :lol:

My son is completely ADDICTED to Minecraft.....what am I missing???

I'm addicted to it to. Just the fact that you can build whatever you want. It reminds me of when I used to play with Legos like 15 years ago.

since it is Summer, he plays it every waking minute. lol He plays it online but is always looking for other forms. What is the best way to play it?? I know very little about it.

Im gonna guess that if its a 3 way trade, its with the Twolves and basically involve gasol and Jason Richardson (atleast we can dump one **** contract) going to the wolves, derrick williams getting moved to either us or the lakers and Bynum coming (i wish there was a puking smilie on this site) to us

would be better to give twolves Bynum and we get Pekovic and PG for Duhon :wink:

Hedo just doesn't have any kind work ethic man....if he would just get into shape i think he would be alright....this season he looked like the blob man......J-Rich has proven that he is SOOOOO expendable....too inconsistent....a shell of what he used to be....A shooting guard that can't shoot Free Throws? my word......Duhon is the epitome of suck...he's quite possibly the worst player in the NBA....looking back at the signings when Otis actually had a press conference introducing both Q and Duhon that's probably one of the saddest moments as a magic fan.....

Big baby though i wouldn't mind him here but i kinda want to see what i can get for him when his value is high....i'm not going to sit here and lie and say that i was impressed by his great play in the playoffs...i wasn't....because i knew that there is no way he plays that well with Dwight healthy so it's a moot point......plus i'm not sure how Baby's personality would mix with Bynum's.....while Baby's value is somewhat high...see what we can get is my train of thought.......

To me almost anything is better than getting bynum, but obviously thats just me. But i think if anything, we could probably get darko back in the trade if that makes it at all better :-?

Random-
Twitter is saying Brandon Roy to T-wolves. hmm. What was the deal the twolves wanted for Pau again? think this has something to do with being a 3rd team for the d12 deal?

is that a serious warning?? I really don't know much about Minecraft other than you build stuff with legos. I did not realize it had any evil undertones...

it actually doesnt make sense for the wolves to be trading for Gasol unless they are trading Love to the lakers

.

id be fairly happy with a Trade getting Pekovic, Barea, and a couple of first from the Timberwolves for Bynum and Duhon and watver it takes to make it cap work

if we trade for bynum we instantly become the least athletic team in the league. i'm cool with the trade but we need draft picks and young talent. bynum would keep us out of the lottery and it would be hard to improve

Nyce_1 · Post #777 » by **Nyce_1** » Fri Jul 6, 2012 2:34 am

Also think, if we're bringing in Shawnand he's running the triangle, I think Turk would be an asset in that system. JRich on the other hand....

Play on peaceful and it doesn't have anything bad. The only thing it is, is very addicting.

Yeah, but there really are two options. Number one, you take him and then turn around and trade him elsewhere. Or, as he's been known to do in the past, he comes in with a chip on his shoulder for the first year or so and you move him after the first season, when he is still a model citizen.

Don't get me wrong, I'd prefer not to take him - I mean, how many screws do you need to have loose to change your name to Metta World Peace? - but it would likely be the first domino of transactions on the way to training camp. There will be other moves. We're not going into the season with six power forwards
