My best guess:

Pau to Houston
Bynum and pieces to Orlando
Howard to LA

Orlando dumps contracts on both teams.

He hasn't been traded yet? Wow.

No point in Houston taking on Pau in their current state. None.

Bynum makes sense. Pau doesn't.

Also, it makes more sense for LA to keep Pau around for the two-year window they seem to be setting up.

I said this in the other thread but, the only reasonable explanation is he's a paid shill employed by the Nets.

I'm starting to realize that no D-Howard trade will ever happen. Unless Dwight/Bynum both say they'll resign after getting traded, this will be ongoing throughout the season.

Swap the bigs in the deal then.

I don't think Bynum gets the Lakers Howard/J-Rich is more my point. I think LA is going to have to send Gasol to a third team in order to afford Dwight.

Maybe this instead:

Pau/White/Lamb/2 picks to Orlando

Bynum to Houston

Howard/Scola/Turk to LA

Something like that off the top of the head.

No that title definitely goes to -[Clippers]- and Cavsfan9000, but luckily the mods were able to ban them.

if he is annoying you, simple utilize the ignore feature.

tell him to "STFU" telling him to go kill himself... that really doesnt make you the better man


I understand your sentiment and partially agree with what you are saying. But most of us have been really patient with him and he has crossed the line. In a way he sort of made most of the people here on RealGm his enemies, got nobody to blame but himself.

there is no need to patient or resort to that sort of thing when there is an option to have his posts not be visible to you.

its one thing to point out his is incorrect. its another to curse at someone who wasnt vulgar with anyone.

shocked at the chidish posting by what is (normally) a pretty civil board

I am not one of those that have "cursed" or have told him to go kill himself. I do not condone such actions which is the part I'm saying I agree on with you.

If I cared about what other posters thought of me I wouldn't be here.

This isn't high school I'm not here to be popular. I'm here to get news about the NBA, express my opinions, and have intelligent discussion.

I'm not gonna let you guys bully me into leaving because you are butt hurt that I have opinions contrary to yours.

Even if I am a homer there are million homers worse then my out here.

There are posters who regularly claim Lebron is better than Jordan. Or that Kobe Bryant is the best player in the history of the NBA.

You really think I'm worse than those guys?
