Re: Magic and Hornets in a race to deal for Bynum
How sick would it be if Dwight went to the Lakers and Paul to the Clippers..
I want CP to go to Orlando and keep both away from the west

They risk losing him in free agency....
this has been posted before, is it NOT smart to take something instead of nothing for him?
and don't take any frustration out on me, I'm just a fan sitting back and watching how this ends up.

He has a team option for next season, so a team can rent him for a season or 2 before extending him.

Makes no sense. I don't think anybody is clamoring over a $15 million player who is injury prone out of this world. Clippers and Nets both have much better offers for Howard.

Re: Magic and Hornets in a race to deal for Bynum
Out: Gasol, Odom and Bynum
In: Paul and Dwight Howard

Lakers will have atleast 1 of them when the Season beings
Bynum/Odom for D12/Hedo
Pau for CP3

Kobe
Artest
Random dude playing PF/Hedo
D12
Now thats what I am talking about
There's no way Hornets trade Paul for Gasol unless a third team is involved.... when the Hornets trade Paul, it will be to go into a full-on rebuilding mode.
Teams don't rebuild by trading for a 31-year-old who is due to make over $55 million over the next three years

To counter this arguement (I personally believe Bynum has been unlucky with Kobe and Lamar breaking his sh*t- literally they injured him twice):

[QUOTE]More than anyone else, Bynum can remove the adjective from this dying dynasty.
And he is more prepared to do it than you know.
He lost 10 pounds to take a load off his knees while losing more body fat than Kevin Durant even carries. He strengthened his core and the muscles all around his knees, so critical for him to improve his base and make powerful moves when so weak in those knees. He ditched all the insecurities over sub-par conditioning and poor lateral movement that led him to rush things and get out of sync with his team.
He focused on developing quicker moves (drop steps, spin moves, one-dribble jump hooks, even the Dream Shake) and locked in on free throws, too.
Bynum remade his body with trainer Freddie Roach, who is in three Boxing Halls of Fame and now teaches champions Manny Pacquiao and Amir Khan

Yeah I highly doubt Pau would be involved in any trade. Bynum+Odom (talent and flexible cap relief) and picks or something would be the offer.

good scorer
Re: Magic and Hornets in a race to deal for Bynum
More importantly it talks about the Bulls chances to get Dwight.
Seriously. Asik+Deng+Taj+Charlotte's first for Dwight+Bass
That's a pretty damn good deal. Hell Chicago may even take back Hedo. I would.

Derrick williams/ wes johnson/ webster/expiring for Pau
Pau for cp3
cp3 for D williams/webster/wes johnson

Re: Magic and Hornets in a race to deal for Bynum
This kinda makes me think that Dwight will be traded first and it will probably be to LA. I don't think Orlando can pull off the kinda move necessary to keep him and they'll probably realize that. Also I honestly can't see CP being traded to LA or NY as long as the NBA owns them (hell I can't see him being traded at all while they own the Hornets) because all the owners would cry "conspiracy."
Paul to LA for Bynum would be hard for the league to accept because they'd be giving away the best PG in the NBA to the star child of the league for pennies on the dollar.

He'd probably be an all-star, average 20-10. It's seemed for awhile that Bynum has wanted a bigger role than he currently has.
