Ken Berg: Jim Buss Open to Trading Bynum-maybe a 3 team trade

[mountainmamba]

Here is the link to an article from Ken Berg, a very knowledgeable and accurate writer for CBS. He covered the whole lockout and was very informed on all the happenings so he's no Broussard...

Here's the important part. Read about the Lakers and Bynum and a possible three team with Bogut.

It's no surprise to anyone that the Lakers will be one of the primary suitors in a possible trade for Howard, and a person with knowledge of the team's strategy told CBSSports.com that executive Jim Buss finally has dropped his opposition to trading center Andrew Bynum "for the right deal." That's code for "a deal for Dwight Howard," and it's clear from those familiar with Howard's thinking that he'd like to join the Lakers. Bynum may or may not be on the Magic's list of suitable replacements for Howard in a potential deal that also would have to include young players on rookie contracts and draft picks. The Bucks' Andrew Bogut may be a better fit, a notion that has conjured speculation in the agent community of a three-team deal that would land Bynum in Milwaukee, Bogut in Orlando and Howard in L.A.

This is huge that Jim Buss is willing to do this move. Must thought this wouldn't happen under Jims watch but now he would do it..and the fact that they can help orlando get what they want in Bogut is big too. Thoughts??

Orlando can get a better deal than Bynum, but it really depends on what options Howard is willing to accept.

You Laker fans need to come to the realization that nobody really cares about Andrew Bynum anymore.

His allure has cooled, the intrigue is not really there anymore, and as a result neither is his trade value. He's been in the league since 2005 and is injured almost EVERY...SINGLE...YEAR. At this point Brook Lopez is way more valuable an asset at the center position. Andrew Bynum isn't netting you D12

Thanks GM. I'm sure you also believed we couldn't get Gasol for Kwame. Just shut up.

Well, honestly, that shouldn't have been able to happen.

Orlando gets Bogut in this deal

[bluechox2]

orlando must have no balls and no pride and a large vag if they let the lakers rape them a 2nd time on taking their centers.

ha keep telling yourself that

I'd rather have Brook Lopez for 82 than Andrew Bynum for 52 and DJ Mbenga for 30.

I'd like that even less. The Clippers really have a great piece with that Minny pick. Just a matter if anyone wants to go there.

Bogut on the Lakers would be badass. Most underrated defender in the league.

Did u read it?

No Surprise, of course Bynum would be available in a trade for Dwight.

[Yao Ming's Foot]

Did u read it?

Yeah, but when do the Lakers actually do trades that have been in the news. The idea of Bogut being available is what is interesting to me.

Yeah, you just can't pass up the opportunity for a Kobe-Gasol-Howard core. I don't care how much potential they might see in Bynum. Andrew Bynum is still a bit of a maybe. Dwight Howard is.
