Is that dude's back really hurt?

I love it as a Laker fan, but this smells fishy.

It's been a tremendous advantage/coincidence that he spends his summer in a city he could enivitably choose to play in, matter of fact the only city that could promise him IMMEADIATE rings.

I'm not making any "real" accusations, only that coincidences that gain tremendous advantage aren't always coincidences.

hmmm, i'm not sure i said that about expanding his lists. i did say that i personally wouldn't trade for dwight til he gave his commitment and believed that the lakers always had that stance too.

Maybe it was someone else then. I know its only thread 3 but it seems like the Dwight saga is just about ready to jump into Episode IV A New Hope

I wonder what David Stern will have to say about this....

Awesome news by the way!

Growing up in Florida all my life and getting to watch a bunch of Magic games and moving out here to the west coast recently makes me excited to see this!!!

Whats crazy though is that one of the owners that were a big influence on the Lakers not getting CP3 is going to help the Lakers get D12

only if you thought the magic were already willing to accept the offer on the table and the only hold up was the lakers reluctance. i personally don't think that was the case.

"If Rudolph is right and this gets officially to HOU and CLE, the leverage is now there for ORL, because they have to bid against each other. LA just waits patiently for information on where to buy a ticket for Drew."

It's not a done deal. Orlando wants more from the Cavs it's as simple as that.

Cavs need to include Waiters or Thompson. They are getting Bynum back so no reason why they should be so keen on holding on to Thompson at the very least.
