I don't mean to be crude but...

If Houston is drunk enough to offer Donatas, Lamb, White and Toronto's pick while taking back one of our bad contracts then Henny needs to wrap up and go to town.

Dude I mean either one of them but the most common scenario would it be: Kmart/Lamb/White + 2 round pick for Dwight/Hedo.

or Kmart/Lamb/Parsons/White + 1 round picks for Dwight/JJ/Hedo

Either one of who? You quite literally wrote:

Where did you differentiate between 'and' vs. 'or' in terms of included players?

Terrence Jones has 18 pts, 9 boards, 2 asst, 3 min left in the 3rd.

I still bet the Knicks match on Lin at the last minute, just to piss of Houston. They leaked rumors today that they wouldn't be matching, got Houston all excited and made them waste a day of thinking they had Lin, and then "shock" everyone at 10pm and match.

I'm gonna be really disappointed if we trade Dwight anywhere else but Houston.

Those HOU draft picks are showing out in Vegas.

Jones is just bullying guys right now. If HOU is offering their rookies, lotto pick, and K-Mart, as they were on draft night, I'd take that over Bynum.

I'd just be more excited to watch a young team develop and run and gun than Bynum.

That sounds great to me. I am alright with allowing them to keep Motiejunas so long as they take back JRich or Turk.

:nonono:

We should go over there and defend our team/city.

I know it's impossible to obtain those 4 target "Donatas/Lamb/White/Kmart" or even "Jones". But at less we getting 3. Id choose the combo of either Lamb/Kmart/White or Donatas/Lamb/Parsons.

i would if i could. Orlando ownership has had horrible GM's for awhile and have had 1 star not surrounded by enough help, at least with Tmac and Dwight.

Yeah, I own up to that fact (not building good enough talent around the stars)... but it's that everyone in that thread says it's because the stars were mistreated by management :roll:

or the city was terrible... just annoying... and it's coming from fans that probably never even been to Orlando, let alone Florida... also a lot of those stars (Shaq, Penny, T-Mac, Steve), they all had their own respective reasons... some was bad luck... some was circumstantial... external (injuries, etc)... Orlando is getting a bad rep that's undeserved imo

I lived in Orlando for 20+ years and grew up following the Magic. While I will always be a Magic fan I can't bring myself to defend the city. When you compare Orlando to Chicago (my favorite NBA city), New York, Boston, Dallas or other big cities it just doesn't stack up.

With that said... unless you are filthy rich, Miami is a disgusting dump. What a pathetic city / community. So at least Orlando tops the state in "funness"!

That would be a legit question if Bynum hasn't played in 67 consecutive playoff games.

Thank you for being a voice of reason.

I just want to wake up tomorrow and see that Orlando has officially gone through with the Houston deal

Here we go again... last week it was let's trade for Lamb/Jones, yesterday it was let's go for Lamb/White, and now the majority here will probably go back to Lamb/Jones. :lol:

I'm just glad all three are showing promise during SL just in case we can only get 2 of them...

I see the size likeness, but I don't think their games are comparable. Harrington is a better 3 point shooter, but worse attacking the rim and defending.

I love unselfish ball players.

Lamb/White/Parsons/Tor Pick and call it a completed transaction.

ADRajX · Post #258 » by **ADRajX** » Wed Jul 18, 2012 1:44 am

Lamb/White ... White/Jones... Lamb/Jones...

In the words of Meatloaf... "Two out of three ain't bad"

well....Jones shot 32% and Harrington shot 33% for the year......but then again it's college 3 and Jones took significantly less....either way though i wouldn't mind having Jones on our team....

I think this board would be disappointed if Lamb wasn't one of the two though.
