Andrew Bynum - not interested in Magic, could be interested in Houston in 2013?

    So we went from Lowry to Dragic to Lin to Brooks at the PG position and from Chuck Hayes to Dalembert to Gasol (Spermed) to Dwight (pursuing) to Bynum (wants to be here) at Center.

    Interesting!

    Money, negotiating ploy, both teams rumored to be around the Dwight trade in one way or another.

    But he is quite a talent. I cant envision him leading a team anywhere - all about that max extension - but he is clearly capable of being a part of a big 3 when healthy.

    Pursue but very very low probability. Don't get hopes up.

    It's about motherf***ing time a FA said they like Houston. Despite all of you r****ded posters that hate Les and Morey, the Rockets have good management.

    Whether or not it means anything, I'm just hugely relieved to hear something like this.

    Can't believe he wants to come here. That's pretty awesome.

    Maybe I'm just jaded, but this looks more like a list of teams that will have cap room and a hole at center in 2013, rather than a list of teams Andrew Bynum wants to sign with.

    If He thinks Pau is then he better think Bynum is.

    Yeah, he wants to get paid. We can offer him a lot of money. Sounds like a good fit to me :grin:

    Yes. Rather than the Hakeem summer post-up sessions, I think Bynum could benefit from a year with Scola and his ridiculous mental fortitude.

    If Dwight leaves after next season, then we have Bynum waiting for us. Win-win!

    1) 4 way trade

    Gasol (LA), Richardson (ORL) to Philly

    Scola (HOU), Iggy (PHI), Dwight (ORL), Livingston (HOU) to LA

    Raptor pick (HOU), rights to Llull (HOU), Jones (HOU), Moultree (PHI), Martin (Hou), Dallas pick (HOU), Brockman's partially guaranteed contract (HOU), McRoberts' exp. contract (LA), future Hou 1st (2014 or beyond) to Orlando

    Bynum (LA), Duhon (ORL), Q.Rich (ORL) to Houston

    2) Try and get picks out Lee and Camby from S&T and use one of them to go after Collison

    Collison/Duhon
    Lamb
    Parsons/Morris/White
    Ppat/Dmo
    Bynum/Smith

    Do it Murray!

    Only Parsons will be on the team come next year, looking at the bench reaction in the video.

    It's not genuine, b/c Orlando would fit that description after trading Howard. He also previously said there's a bank in every city.

    Wouldn't he want to sign with teams that needed a center and had a ton of money to spend on one?

    Possibly, but they're not mutually inclusive.
