    Let ur maybes play it out and see if one or two can be part of a big three.

    Duhon and Richardson aren't even really bad contracts... of course other teams wanted them.

    As I was trying to explain earlier to you guys, sending a superstar to their preferred destination almost always happens. You saw how close the Nets deal got, after that it was seemingly a lock Dwight would end up in LA unless Houston gave up a unbelievable offer.

    What's interesting about this is that Morey clearly doesn't want Bynum. He could have easily acquired Bynum if he had wanted to.

    Obviously someone else was going to try to land Bynum though.

    The fact that some posters had convinced themselves that we were the only team that could possibly facilitate a Dwight deal boggled my mind.

    I got it perfectly.

    Improve YOUR team first. Just like how Morey was ready to hand CP3 to Pau. This would have been no different.

    Also, it seems the Nuggets had no problem giving the Lakers Dwight if it meant IMPROVING their team.

    The funny thing is... if they got Al Harrington in return, they didn't shred a single bad contract.

    All jokes aside.....pretty much.

    Morey knows this.

    Build from within was prolly always the goal but he did the song and dance for those that were always impatient front runners.

    Morey plays chess, man!

    Too many checkerers round this piece!

    Oooooooh happy day!
