    First choice is Dwight but If he chooses LA then we get back Bynum who is no slouch and a great consolation prize.


    LA can't get Dwight without us and ORL can't get Bynum because he doesn't want to re-sign there. We win either way.

    I think the "Door #3" is a great analogy. It is why so many people love draft picks, because of the unknown...like a Xmas gift. I think the Harvard School of Psychology actually did a study of "Let's make a deal" contestants to see if they good find a connection to who loved the "Door #3" unknown more and why.

    I swear there is a type. But I bet if you allowed people on the Dating game to see Girl #1 and Girl #2, much less men would choose Door #3 over two knowns. lol!

    I really don't like Bynum. He's a headcase and injury prone. Not a good centerpiece to build around.

    Howard is obviously better. But he doesn't want to be here. The risk is too high.

    Power forward is our strength. Build on your strength. :grin:

    I'd take Bynum over Howard in a vacuum, but getting Bynum means LA gets Howard, right? Even still, if Howard doesn't get them a ring, and Bynum matures and gets better once away from Kobe and the LA spotlight, that would be so cool.

    The LA fans we hate the fact we got the best years out of Bynum.

    I'm having a hard time accepting Howard. Just never liked his game, and think he's peaked, and think you must cater your whole offensive scheme around him to maximize him. And I just don't think any offense involving Howard will ever win unless you get a legit superstar to play with him.

    Bynum just reeks like a bad contract. Usually you don't get healthier as you age.
