    I know, right? What an entitled bunch of p*ssies some of them are. Their 16 championships are all well and good, but guess what? It ain't 1980, it ain't 1982, it ain't 1985, it ain't 87 or 88, nor is it 2000, 2001, 2002, 2009, or 2010. That's all that matters for those living in 2013.

    No. He is saying why would Dwight go to the warriors when they will be an incomplete team after doing what it takes to get him (giving up Thompson, barnes, picks, and Bogut). The rockets already have a complete team and if he signs here it wont require us to lose any players. It is true, but i am not worried about it. They have a lot of salary to shed.

    I wouldn't tell a Clippers, Pacers, Thunder, Bulls, or Grizzlies fan that their team is on its way down. Because they're not. But the Lakers? The 2013 Lakers? Umm, yeah, your team's not winning a championship. Get over it.

    I don't care if he is tweeting about the Statue of Liberty. There has been nothing substantive learned from the Howard camp since retreating to Aspen. So to say anyone has momentum is a complete guess.

    Perhaps because someone just asked him about GS.

    I LOATHE Lakers fans. I mean, we gt it, you've done **** in the past... your future is grimm you bigheaded cocky sobs. The best thing abt that organization has passed away (may his soul rip). Hell the clippers have a way brighter future than them. I want so bad for d12 to come here, but if he chooses GSW, A part of me would be happy that the lakers didnt get what they want... Im lying, I would be devestated... I Would hate dwight howard... Hysteria... need a decision... come on dwight... strip clubs and restaurants and strip malls, whats not to like?

    Ask Detroit, i'd guess a cpl 2nd rounders thrown in might be needed but i'm no GM. However i suspect that asset cache he got for robinson was about spreading the wealth to top up offers.

    hahaha! I just saw your post about being banned, so I checked my new account.

    I guess that's not the place to talk about amnestying Pau or Kobe to remain relevant :grin:
    DreamShake have they banned your account yet?

    I have seen a lot of Doc Rocket activity.

    But has there been any cyberx news lately?

    No, I am also saying it isn't worth spending $20M+ in real dollars in 2013 and being subject to repeater status in 2014.

    No, I said that amnestying Pau doesn't make sense if they are tanking because Pau has some trade value IMO and they have another amnesty option like Nash that frees up even more cash in 2014 FA and makes them worse in 2013.

    Bogut and Barnes are not world beaters for 2013, but they would undoubtedly make them better and make their pick worse, while costing the Lakers $20M+ and repeater status. That isn't near worth Barnes.

    They can do all the amnesty and trade off options without the S&T with GSW. Barnes just isn't worth all that. He probably isn't even worth making them (assuming him and Bogut as additions) better in 2013 if he was free.

    The threat of repeater is very real for LA because if they go after (as is their plan) a couple stars, you can bet they would plan to sign one and S&T for another, then use all their exceptions and trades to build around them. Very easily getting to the luxury tax.
