    For what? LOL! I wont unless he keeps Dwight. That would be stupid at this point. If he gets Bynum than he gets at least his dignity back in some form from me.

    Is it safe to compare Dwight and Bynum as this decade's version of David Robinson and Hakeem Olajuwon?

    Landing Dwight would be great but part of me wonders what is the point when we don't have a strong supporting cast now. If we could've kept Dragic or Lowry I like landing him but as it stands I think it'll be tough to win with him this year unless we make some other big moves.

    I am scanning some Orlando forums and some of them are under the impression or at least want the deal with Houston the most. Maybe because everyone hates the Lakers but they seem to think it is us.

    I really hope we make this deal and not throw away Royce White and Lamb. I really like their game and skill set.

    That's what I thought as well. They were really upset when it was only Brooklyn in the news, too

    You've gotta give to get. I'd love to keep 'em but you can't have your cake and eat it too.

    The haters will not because they'll say "wait and see first." Which is ironic because if these so-called fans actually had a wait-and-see attitude, GARM wouldn't be filled with so much blind hate but rather civilized discussion.

    Regardless of how the Howard deal end up, we should develop a wait-and-see attitude. If we get Howard, then we should be patient and see whether or not Morey can surround him with a deep cast that will prompt him to stay. If he goes elsewhere, then we should be patient and see how DMo, Lamb, White, etc. develop over time.

    Either way, there was never a reason to blindly hate Morey, and even if this trade succeed, a reason to blindly love him. The blind hate of not even waiting until FA signings begin to me is the most disappointing of my fellow fans. I believe Morey should be subjected to criticism. I just never believed he should be subject to criticism of things that haven't even happened yet.

    It's not safe to compare Dwight/Bynum to Dream/Admiral under any circumstances other than being centers in the NBA and even that's dicey.

    I would go with Bynum despite the injury risk ... he might resign, DH12 not.
