    Dont forget what i told u guys about Dwights mentor, Frank... the guy lives with Hakeem and is raising those African boys that go to Lamar and are trying to go to UofH next year, he's told me that its been a done deal since last year that CP3 and Dwight will both end up in LA

    Nothing new...that's his number one option. He gets to play in a large market, on a good team, and act.

    They have Mike Brown now so it could happen.

    that and Kobe is older. He is still one of the most dangerous players to play the game, but he has a lot of mileage.

    Barnes has fought more players than befriended.

    Smart move by LA if this falls through... Be able to contend right now, and still be good down the road

    Given the CBA and the Lakers' lack of capsapce/assets, I see no chance they get either player, let alone both. But if they pull off another Kwame for Gasol type deal, I really just might give up on the NBA.

    ORL would rather let Dwight walk than trade him to the Lakers.

    Yeah, I don't think Bynum is much of a consolation prize, given that he's always hurt anyway.

    But will Dwight pull a Carmelo? "Lakers only, make it happen"?

    when you consider the alternative would you rather let your franchise player walk and rebuild through the draft like CLE is doing from scratch or take in assets that will keep you afloat for 1st round exists like DEN did? I have a gut feeling ORL would choose the 1st option and besides Dwight cant with with OKC, CHI, LAL, MIA, NYK the top elite teams next year anyways they dont have cap. If he wants to go to those places hes gonna have to give up money. If he wants the money he'll be going to Indiana or somethin that has capspace but no 'ship cast around him

    Clippers have the talent and the capspace but they're the Clippers...they'll goof it up and Im sure DH doesnt want to put his future in their hands

    He's really getting Single White Female-ish with Shaq now.
