    I don't think so. Separate deals I believe: Lakers/Cavs or Jazz/Cavs

    You're right. My mistake.

    I was thinking Gasol, not Bynum.

    saving 20 million wasnt enough for the lakers they wanted more from the cavs - i am glad Cleveland didnt comply to their wishes - they knew they werent going to get more than 1/2 a season from an aging Gasol who hasnt shown to be the all-star he once was.

    the cavs aren't going to let Bynum screw them again but having to part with Waiters or a first round pick.

    also probably becoming worse and getting a lotto pick (which somehow will magically land them at #3) is the much added bonus for them as well
