    Someone find the GIF where the rockets bench is waving bye to Bynum. It would be ironic if the table turns and we get Bynum. Just came to mind...

    Dwight will have an interview with the LA Times coming up.

    @MarkHeisler

    As I (wish I) predicted: Dwight agreeing to talk to LA Times' TJ Simers + report from RealGM which remains out front suggest he's Laker-bound

    Actually, out is pretty simple after Chicago doesn't match.

    S&T Goran plus a second rounder to Phoenix for Glenn Davis and JRich. Trade Martin, Ppat, Morris for Dwight. Livingston for Duhon. Send out Lamb, Jones with the Toronto and Dallas picks.

    I think you need to make the fonts a little bigger so everyone can see it.

    I wouldnt mine still doing a 3 way even if lakers gets Howard and Bynum agrees to do a long term max contract with Orl. i would still like to give away Martin, 2pat, morris + dallas first rounder and a 2 nd rounder.

    Hahaha feel sorry for Dwight when he gets traded to Houston. I hope we move him at the deadline to a crap team like The Bobcats

    Isn't that Tony Mejia article just a collection of what we already know?

    Jesus christ, you want us to take back three bad contracts, send out four prospects, and two first rounders + one second rounder to boot?

    Denver didn't get even half that much for Melo and he was agreeing to sign an extension!

    I'm glad we are not involved in this ****. Giving up our future for a rent-a-player, **** that.

    ummm.... we're kind of the front-runners to land either Howard or Bynum. Don't know where you've been.

    I just can't wait for the Dwightmare to be over! Regardless of whether we get D12, Bynum, or neither.

    That's the best Orlando can do, nobody else can touch that deal. We may get away with less.

    You've clearly not been paying attention.

    Cleveland can still facilitate but their front office is notoriously difficult to deal with

    That would be an insane amount for us to give up for a 25% chance to retain Dwight. This is the maximum I see Morey offering, and it still beats every offer on the board:

    Martin
    Take back 2 bad contracts (not Turkoglu)
    Give up two prospects
    TOR and DAL picks

    We're not taking back 3 bad contracts and we're not giving up 4 prospects. Jesus.

    So we are pretty much guaranteed either Dwight Howard or Andrew Bynum? Hell yeah.
