from LG.Stephen A Smith radio show on 710 ESPN just said his source said that the plan was in place for cp3 and d12 to come to the Lakers. It was a package deal. It was already to go. Cp3 and d12 had talked about it and that was the plan.

No kidding. Lakers wouldn't trade 60% of a championship front court if there wasn't. I think this trade is going to get done, people will just have to accept it.

Don't think this makes sense though. Andrew Bynum for Dwight Howard straight up doesn't even touch other deals the Magic could get. (NJ to name one)

Also, if that's the case then the Dwight deal would've happened. NBA can't stop that.

Oh no, what a shocker.
If people are pissed that LA will get both Paul & Dwight, how do you guys feel about David West joining LA to? *whistles*

Re: SAS-Deal was in place for Dwight to join Paul in L.A
Honestly Stern royally screwed LA over last night, by Sunday we would have had a press conference announcing our two new members. This was the plan the whole time, but now only time will tell.
A lot has changed, still being optimistic though.

Re: SAS-Deal was in place for Dwight to join Paul in L.A
AGAIN: What is stopping the Lakers from doing that deal without Paul involved?
All that trade could have been is Bynum+scrubs+picks for Howard.

Re: SAS-Deal was in place for Dwight to join Paul in L.A
This is why the trade absolutely can't go through. Stern taking one for the fans
I think it's clear Howard wants to play with either Deron or Paul. Originally Posted by R.I.P.

Exactly why the CP3 trade was vetoed. Can't believe Stern did this but hell, I'm not complaining.

If that's true, I completely understand the owners' position. Why have half the teams in the league if this stuff is going to happen?

Completely false. Take your Laker goggles off please. Originally Posted by KOBEtherealKing

Re: SAS-Deal was in place for Dwight to join Paul in L.A
They are discussing a SnT for David West to LA along-side Chris Paul; preferably New Orleans wants Okafor gone too. That's the bottleneck, they will probably be negotiating until the end of the weekend. I hope they hit us with a bombshell and announce the trade tonight; like I said before, expect Howard to join LA days later unless Buss Jr. somehow influences our front office to wait till the deadline to make a move for Howard.
