they can control him for 2 years vs 2months of bynum. makes a trade later easier

I agree with this. As a Boston fan, please don't let Philly get Bynum! Please basketball gods![/quote]

That's why we have our secret weapon Fabulous Melo.

Hes not a scrub. He would fit in well on LA. But hes not the difference maker between Pau and Bynum for Dwight being a really bad trade and it being a fair one with him added in.

If that's what it takes to get Dwight they'll do it in a heartbeat, stop kidding yourselves LA homers.

Also no CHANCE they got Iggy and Dwight, come on now

clearly do no understand how contending team works

smells weird

I could see Denver also giving up Mozgov and PHilly hopefully giving up Turner or Holiday, and both going to Orlando.

yup. Unless you get the deal of a lifetime...you leave good enough alone.

Woj? This deal is gonna happen.

ClayDavis · Post #110 » by **ClayDavis** » Thu Aug 9, 2012 5:29 pm

too many unknown pieces to be filled. Woj did say it was fluid, bu as it stands its a pau salary dump. very much like the cp3 deal.

Throw in Gasol/Bynum or lose him to Dallas or Brooklyn, your choice

Not a chance they part with either. I could see Thad outgoing though. And probably a pick or two

Wouldn't be a bad idea to have someone out on the floor who can spread the floor, besides Nash. Stretch 4s play very well next to Dwight. See Ryan Anderson and Rashard Lewis. So that's not a bad plan.

Anyways, I'm expecting this deal to break down like all of the others.

If Philly were able to swap Iggy for Bynum they'd be pretty freaking good next year.

Stretch 4 ? pfff..

LA's only real advantage nowadays is the incredible size up front. Harrington is not even a reliable enough shooter to pencil him in as a legit floor spacer.

Pretty sure LA knows Dwight would extend, only reason they'd do the deal.

Then they lose him to those teams and say "F it"

Makes no sense for us Magic fans.....

Aging big, and a player who doesn't really have much upside...

Insert suicide gif here....

So far there has been nothing I've seen to indicate that the Magic front office has any idea whatsoever about what it's doing.

If I were Orlando Bynum for Dwight and all of my cap garbage would have been the perfect deal for me. You can rebuild around Bynum, and Orlando when they've had cap space has been a decent free agent player in the past(remember they almost signed GHill, T-mac, AND Duncan)

I don't understand resigning Jameer nelson but letting Ryan Anderson go.

If the Lakers are truly sending Gasol and Bynum just for Dwight, I'll be very pissed.

Come on, Mitch. We're not that desperate. You can't be the one who blink first in this game of chicken.

It just doesn't make sense. If they were willing to give up those 2 for Dwight, he would've been a Laker months ago. Am I supposed to believe that Al Harrington is the true difference maker/decision changer?

EscapoTHB · Post #120 » by **EscapoTHB** » Thu Aug 9, 2012 5:33 pm

If the Lakers trade Gasol and Bynum for just Dwight they're going to really struggle to start next year. Only Kobe and Nash with no front line. Mike Brown isn't exactly known for his ability to coach small ball. Every team he's coached has had legit 4s and 5s
