We knew Dwight was going to the Lakers months ago........ You know Bynum somewhere missing LA already. I hope he doesn't end up having a season like Lamar :lol

Lakers vs Heat is what most will be expecting to be in the finals now.

Anyone want to be the first person to guess how Howard and Pau will mix in the paint?

With the addition of Nash, this should make things EVERY interesting in Tinseltown.

It's been less than a year from when the Lakers got robbed of Paul--they ended up STEALING Nash in Free Agency and got Howard for virtually nothing AND keeping Pau while they were at it. I HATE the Lakers, but you gotta admire how they keep pulling off trades like this :lol

Michael Smith ‏@michaelsmith
Everybody else made out BUT Orlando. Yet the Magic had the most valuable asset. They couldn't even unprotected picks out of the deal, man.

This is so true :lol

SMH @ the "haul" Orlando received in this deal. The only logical rationale for them taking it is they want to go full-on tank mode.

Didn't see Dwight to the Lakers coming *sarcasm*
 
Really happy Gasol gets to stay. 76ers might make some noise in the East next season. Hopefully this mess really done. No BS David Stern!!!
 
Bymum will be gone so fast

Sixers 2nd round MAX

Those bird rights could come into play with the extra cash.....plus he's actually coming home, he's from central jersey like an hour away from Philly so who knows if that'll play into it as well...
 
Lyon - totally forgot that. Bynum coming home (sorta) is going to be interesting too. Lets see if stays focused.

Come on bro.. He will for sure test FA.

Besides, Uncle Drew > anyone on the philly roster not named Bynum

Bynum & Howard will both test FA..

Howard has so much incentive to stay in LA.. Not only will he get $25mil more... His endorsement with Adidas alone DOUBLES..

Bynum is so YOLO I'd not be surprised at anything... But it would be a S&T if he were to leave

Yup...the Sixers are actually as close as it gets to Bynum's hometown in Jersey in the NBA.

:hat :hat
 
I don't believe what I just read. I don't believe what I just read.


I just don't understand. I just don't understand.


If any writer out there spins this positively for the Magic, please post the article. I'd really like to read it.
 
I do not get why everyone makes a big deal about the free agency thing. It is not the same anymore guys. It is not like he is paid 18 Million this year and can sign an extension for a starting salary of 18 mil up for 5 years. He would lose more money re-upping RIGHT NOW with the Lakers Dwight instead of signing with another team for their max.


The most money Dwight can get from the Lakers is once he declares for FA. He can get the 5th year and 25 million more than any other team.



Would you sign a deal knowing you could get more money later on??????
 
This is why so many people hate the Lakers. They never have to rebuild and they always get the superstar players. I still think OKC can beat them in a 7 game series though.

If the Magic just wanted a few first round draft picks, they should have taken Houston's deal, imo
