    Ok so here we go. Source tells me #Magic back in the 3 way game. #Cavs back in along with, yes, the #Lakers.

    @AlexKennedyNBA
    The Lakers, Magic and Cavaliers have discussed a three-team deal that would send Dwight Howard to Los Angeles, according to sources.

    @YannisHW
    Cleveland's on Bynum's list of teams he'd stay with. They'd be a team to really fear in the future with Bynum and Kyrie Irving. Cavs pursuing Bynum real hard. We all know how Dan Gilbert felt about the Lakers potentially getting Howard in December, but if he can get Bynum? Gotta do that.

    Wow, if this happens we might not end up getting either one of them.

    The Cavaliers would be awesome with Bynum, and they could still pick up Scola off amnesty waivers. That team would be sick!

    I hope Howard enjoys his new scoring averages of 11 points a game next year.

    Great my worst ****ing nightmare coming true.
    Lin matched
    Asik matched
    Dwight to lakers
    Bynum to Cavs
    Rockets get NOTHING.
    We end up signing unwanted players to half ass fill the holes in our team.
    KILL ME.
    Lol

    Who cares?
    At least we've got promising young rookies.
    I would have loved Dwight to Houston and then CP3 to join next summer but regardless its a win-win situation no matter what way you spin it.

    What kind of rockets fan speaks like this??? Were supposed to hope for the worst for other teams and the best for the rockets. Bynum and Howard are our last chances this off season lol.

    Honestly, I don't believe all these Bynum's shortlist is Houston and Cleveland rumors. They are entirely too convenient and loaded with innuendo of what may happen if X,y, or z team wants to deal. I can't see a cocky ahole from Jersey who has been worshiped in LA his entire professional career just picking up and deciding to play for these super blue collar teams.

    Cleveland would be sick with Bynum? Really? Lol I think they would be a good team but nothing but a playoff team at best.

    ...and oh ya, if Bynum is set on leaving LA, why has there been virtually no discussion of LA fielding offers for him(outside of the Dwight circus rumors)? It's because they don't fear him leaving them.

    Yay, we are gonna get shafted out of both Dwight AND Bynum! Even though we have the best trade package!

    Isn't Gilbert the one who threw a hissy fit when the Lakers were gonna get CP3? Now, it's all cool though cuz he's the one that benefits.

    Dude even if we don't get Howard, we're great situation to rebuild. With the extra lottery pick from Toronto and our high upside rookies in Motiejunas and Jeremy Lamb. Our future looks a lot more promising then it did at the end of the season.

    We're not gonna be stuck in the middle anymore ... I can guarantee you that.

    Well yeah no surprise there. Every GM is going to scream unfair unless they're the one that benefits.
