    I wouldn't mind having Bynum to tell you the truth. Headcase, but so is Howard... The upside is Bynum can ball and wouldn't mind being in Houston. The downside would be his knees holding up long term...

    Seriously more than back issues(TMAC always had back issues...and never properly took care of it...) are more easier to manage...than knee issues...chronic and long term knee injuries...destroy careers of big men...Bynum is just healthy enough for me...too many injuries for a young dude...

    Its amazing how much credibility people still see in ESPN when they spit out so much garbage.

    Murry has them by the balls now. Epic loss of leverage.

    ESPN reports on expectations for Jeremy Lin (Knicks or Rockets?) were about 95 percent fails. In terms of legitimate reporting of unfolding events, they push to satisfy their own media-related agendas more often than other objectively researched and feasible outcomes. They choose to emphasize the media-desired outcomes over other possible outcomes that fall outside of those they desire to happen. They are lobbyists (with a lot of visibility) lobbying for what they want have happen.

    Is it possible to be fired before even starting your job?

    This may be the first and only. Scrub.

    Yes, everyone seems to assume that we will be giving them one or more of our rookies, but why? Orlando may just have to settle for Martin, Morris, maybe Patterson and draft picks. Orlando doesn't really have a lot of other options at this point. Can they get anything much better from Cleveland?

    after bynum

    Okay so if Howard is to L.A., then couldn't the rockets get him for fewer of their assets? Meaning the rockets could have a second trade for the pieces left to go after josh smith?(or some other star to go with lin n Bynum?

    Damn I just thought. I been calling for Morey's head. But we might be entering a situation where Howard wants to go to LA but Orlando doesn't want to trade for him without Bynum signing long term. They may need a third team to facilitate. We might get a re-signed Bynum for all of our picks and still get to keep our rookies. The kicker is Orlando may wind up begging Morey to take this deal........

    @mazinger already posted what I was thinking. Great minds think alike. If Morey pulls that off I pledge to not doubt him for the next 2 years minimum. And I will LOL @ Orlando!

    So Cleveland gets slammed because it exists. There's something very ugly about this entire Howard/Bynum fiasco that brings to mind The Decision.

    I just hope we get one of Bynum and Dwight while keeping Lamb. A trio of Lin, Lamb, and Dwight/Bynum is good enough for 4/5 seed.
