    That's only because his supporting cast is bull*****. He's such a dominant player that if you even surrounded him with last season's Roleplayer Rockets sadly, we won't quite be doing that), he could vault you into championship contention.

    This is nonsense. LeBron didn't win championship when he was in Cleveland either.

    Rolling with the rooks or bringing in Dwight, either are options are win-win. DH is more of a gamble but the reward would be worth the risk.

    Just not sure there is such a thing as a committed Bynum. This kid has talent but his piss poor attitude would not be a good combination with this current young roster.

    Howard would feed off these hungary rooks, Bynum would likely corrupt them.

    Dragic is white, Lin is Asian, hence Dragic is "far more impressive".

    "one more marquee move" ???

    Lin is probably better than i think but "marquee move"? where's the damn paddle?

    Why would Philly want to trade him? Unlikely that Bynum is willing to walk away from the extra contract money. Philly will probably be a good situation for him if he gets along with the coaching staff and team. He's expressed his desire to be 'the guy' on his own [winning] team, and he can very well do that with the Sixers. He'd be hard pressed to find a better basketball situation.

    Both will be free agents, so technically, yes they will. However the Lakers and Sixers by owning the respective player's bird rights can offer either player (way) more money and years than anybody else.

    Why would Chicago give up the best point in the league?

    That and D-Rose will never leave Chicago. He's just not built that way.

    Sign and Trade? Why would the teams want to trade away franchise players for any of our garbage.
