    Totally agree.

    Well I think CP3 could make the Lakers better, especially if Bynum plays solid, but they'd have some dude named "Character" as their starting PF. They'd be just another team in the mix in the west. Maybe better then before the trade but maybe worse. But if they go CP3+Dwight your talking about dynasty for 10 years.

    I agree as well. Without Dwight the lakers would be two minor injuries from the lottery. Now I know you can say that about a lot of teams, but those two players are not durable. (Bynum/Paul)

    But with Howard, like yo said.......pretty good for another 10 years.

    I don't understand that move at all.

    He just duped their management. That's a lot of money for him.

    That is less than half of what he made last year since he made 14.4M and now gets 6.25M yearly. I do not think it is too outlandish.

    Ya. Especially when Prince got 4 yrs- 30mil, and Butler got a 3 years- 24 mil deal. Although the # is right, I don't think it makes much sense for the Magic at this point though.

    BTW, that # should be around what we give for Nic and Wallace.

    Thad Young 5yrs 43mil and I think he and Batum about on the same level.

    I hope for a 5yr 35 mil for Nic, but If he makes this anticipated step in his game we could see closer 45.

    I'm shocked that Paul Allen tweeted about LaMarcus.

    I was certain he was oblivious to what was going on.

    I hate that I am always negative because this will automatically sound combative towards the team, but did you expect anything different from the team?

    Hard to make trades and sign players when you don't even have a fucking GM. Nice move Vulcans. You saved one month's worth of GM salary and fucked over our team for the entire season.
