Why would there be?

I worry when something bad appears to be happening to the Lakers.

Could you list 5 possible opportunities that will happen in the next month?

Just throwing some stuff out there, not that we should be interested but just to show you what's possible..

Dallas, missing out on Dwight might want to go for say Ellis and Smith.. They need to drop Marion to make it happen, we take him on and get Larkin in the process..

OKC wants to get rid of Perkins but is too cheap to buy him out, we take him on and add Jeremy Lamb..

Houston gets Dwight and also wants to add Smith but Atlanta doesn't want a S/T so we take Lin and Asik

I repeat, I'm not saying we should do deals like this, it's just to get an idea of possibilities.. And there will be more minor opportunities.

I like the Dallas idea and think Larkin would be a great 2nd pg for us in a year or so, this would also give us Marion who could be flipped at the deadline to a contender for a future 2nd or late 1st

Why? They still have a pretty good team.

Bogut
Lee
Iguodala
Klay
Steph

And Barnes as a 6th.

Houston is a pretty good fit for Dwight and what he wants -

Huge Market, Storied Franchise, Good management, Harden is a star but won't outshine him or go Kobe on his ass, Lots of strip clubs and large downtown area, No income tax, less child support payments, very "cultured" city, lots of Christians (:lol:) and the Rockets will be a strong team

Not a Dwight fan at all, but Morey is a god

GSW not looking as good but still top 4 in the east especially if Bogut/Lee can come back and stay healthy.

Curry
Klay/Iggy
Iggy/Barnes
lee
Bogut

is a very nice team, it just made alot of sense for Dwight to go their with that core, especially if LAL takes Barnes/Bogut(which they would be stupid not to IMO)

Frank Isola ‏@FisolaNYDN 1m

Houston, you are about to have a problem.

lol, so true. Will be interested to see how Dwight messes up Houston.

Source close to Dwight Howard says no decision made. It's down to Houston and L.A. They informed Dallas, Atlanta, Golden State they're out.

trebone · Post #274 » by **trebone** » Fri Jul 5, 2013 10:07 pm

also its not over until he puts pen to paper, he could end up in Dallas by morning!

I fail to see how GS is stupid. With or without Dwight, they still will be a tough out. The Iggy signing is definitely a step in the right direction, IMO.
