    If we trade for Dwight, he will stay. No other team. NYK, Brooklyn and LAL have no cap space left to sign Dwight in free agency. That's why Dwight has been pushing so hard for a trade to Brooklyn. He's going to stay and I bet we'll go after J Smith to make Dwight happy. Dwight hates Atlanta lol, he won't go there. I hope this can get it done...

    Dallas pick
    Toronto pick
    2 2nd round picks
    Martin
    Patterson
    Jones

    for

    Dwight, JRich

    Would be happy with either. Each has their cons:
    Dwight:
    -Doesn't really want to be here, but f' it, he's not leaving that money on the table
    -He's 2 years older
    -Had a slipped disk. I've seen lots of patients with slipped disks and the surgery/recovery is not risk free.

    Bynum:
    -Knees!
    -Not as much of a star-draw

    He is a damn good start in the direction of a successful franchise, I can tell you that!

    ...sorry I just had to chime in

    Scola's a better overall player than Bynum. Martin is way overpaid.

    Bynum will be exposed when he no longer has Kobe and Pau there for support. He's a 3rd option.

    Your wasting your time with this guy. He knows nothing. In his world Dalembert=Bynum. SMH. And Asik only deserves 2-3 mill a year. :eek::eek::rolleyes::eek:

    What a dumb question

    If Kevin Love and Lamarcus Aldrige are franchise players, then Bynum( at 24 years old) def is


    Why does Clutchfans hate Bynum so much, is it because he isnt a Euro or what

    you see his numbers( if you have eyes, and brain).. and can see how much he produced with very little touches.... I say bring him to Houston, any fan who objects isnt thinking rationaly

    Depends on your definition. Bynum isnt a superstar (imo there are only a handful of those in the NBA), but he is one of the top 10-12 players in the NBA...so he should be worth max dollars.

    I think you're underestimating Bynum's value...and definitely the NBA contract levels that are given out. Asik at 2 million and Bynum at 7 million...that would only make sense in 1990.

    I'm also down for letting Dwight stay in Orlando for the whole year. Make him and Jennifer suffer more for such indecisive greedy bastards. F them and their dramatic bullcrap. It's just a feeling game gone corporate. How I miss the 90s where it's all about competitive head to head battles.

    The NBA has kept up with the Kardashians. Now even Kevin Love thinks he can attract stars to Minnesota. Heck, even KG era didn't help that team. I'm so tired of all these greedy drama queens.

    Scola is a better overall player? Even defensively?

    Howard got greedy. He want the Birds Rights Max, which he could only get through a trade to the Nets. The Nets lost out with Brook Lopez breaking his foot, which might have made the difference in getting Howard at the deadline.

    In the end, it is Howard's fault he isn't in Brooklyn right now.

    Scola is OVERRATED, if you are comparing him to Bynum. He is really not that good


    I mean he is a solid post player, and has a decent 15 footer, but he is NOWHERE near Bynum

    God help us all

    Yeah, those Portland and Minnesota teams are real powerhouses aren't they. I think the Rockets finished ahead of both teams last year.

    The "franchise player" label is used a little too loosely.

    I like Love though.
