    So, Morey is not that interested in getting into a 3 way with the Lakers and Magic? Not Bynum-curious?

    First off let me say that Dwight Howard is un-arguably the best center in the game, but it's not becuase of those stats. Dwight Howard played twice as many minutes as Andrew Bynum did and had roughly twice as many pts and rebounds.

    So what? Twice as much time and twice as much production? What does that really prove? Is that box score enough to warrant a 1 year rental of D.Howard over a 4 year deal with Andrew Bynum????

    I don't think so.....

    Its been obvious from the start...Howard to Houston.

    The other options just never made nearly as much sense.

    No, but thats enough to warrant 4 years of DHoward over 4 years of Bynum.

    Don't think he can be traded for 30 days... but not sure. Thought I recalled reading that b/c of when his contract was actually signed.

    He probably wants White and Lamb, and wants to dump Hedo and JRich on us. I'll take Richardson's, but Hedo's is a pain, especially if Howard were to walk after next year.

    Come on Morey get it done. Trade yourself if you have. This stockpiling BS has to pay off at some point and he better be all in if we are going to get Dwight.

    Interesting, considering how much Howard despises the thought of being here while Bynum seems to be open to it. Morey would rather swing for the fences even if he ends up striking out if Dwight walks.

    And to counter with this, if we somehow DON'T get rid of Martin, I'll do my ceremony of sadness.

    But this deal can't involve D-Mo/Jlamb/White/Jones if done right away, right?

    Because of the grace period after newly signed contracts?

    I get the sense that Morey feels the 3 team deal can be had later but he wants to try and see if he can't land the big fish for himself first. I hope something good happens soon!

    I've been gone most of the past 4 days, so I kind of assumed since they were all practicing with the squad, that they had signed contracts.
