Cleverly disguised series for the Lakers to get Dwight Howard

dwight howard isn't shaq. if kobe's really past his prime as shown in this series, dwight aint gonna put them over the top.

 

cp3 is going to join dwight in orlando

 

Agreed.

 

Instead of Bynum for Dwight, the thought of Bosh for Dwight would be interesting, although it would never happen

 

Orlando wouldn't do it simply because it would make Miami completely unstoppable for a long time.

 

Wouldn't it be a lot easier to swap Bynum for Howard, if Bynum played great and helped them win a championship instead of being the overpaid, injury-prone, cheap-shot artist albatross that he is? Orlando would actually be better off getting nothing in return than having to pay Bynum's ridiculous contract so he can hit people instead of play basketball.

 

The chances of the Lakers getting Howard are slim. No capspace and im pretty sure Orlando doesn't want Bynum (fragile knees, inconsistent) and Gasol (Aging, soft, mentally weak)

 

Kobe wasn't the same after he got his anke broke by cp3 in the first round. The fakers got swept and Kobe was guarded most of the time by Kidd. The Dallas front court was to much for p. gasol and bynum, Chandler, Haywood, and Dirk made them look like 2 time champs of the high school league.

 

Not if 1) Howard tells Orlando trade me now or face losing me; 2) the Lakers offer both Bynum and Gasol; and 3) the Lakers take back Arenas' horrible contract in addition to Howard.

 

This is what I'm scared of, Bynum had a good series, and Howard wants to be a Laker. If you thought Gasol-and Bynum was bad, picture Howard and Gasol. Teams would have to double team Howard, leaving Gasol alone to hit open shots.

Hopefully, Howard goes to Brooklyn, since he can still be the face of the franchise and has a stellar point guard, whereas he'd have to be Kobe's 2nd bananna.

 

Congratulations. You've made a team that will be in complete cap hell from Kobe, Gilbert, and Howard alone and consists of Howard, old Kobe, and scrubs. I'm sure Howard will be enthused to see that.

 

Dwight and CP3 are coming to Houston after next year anyways.

 

an old Kobe is better than what he's had over the years combined.......
