    I kinda think it makes the Lakers worse. Pau & Odom > Paul. Lakers must think Shannon Brown is ready to step it up.
    CP3 seems to be getting hit more and more by injurys as his career goes on.
    Steve Blake must just love this! He's now the 3rd PG.

    This is my hope. Without Howard they are two minor knee injuries away from the lottery. Howard is the key.

    And I know you can say that about a lot of teams, but Cp3 and Bynum have durabilty issues

    Just a feeling this time. I don't think they got such a great deal for CP3.

    And you know whom to blame most if you did not want this? https://twitter.com/#!/dmorey

    Shannon Brown signed with a different team or is about to.

    Let's hope Lakers get the same outcome as they did when they had Malone and Payton. Disfunction and the eventual demise of Kobe and Shaq.

    This might be big: https://twitter.com/#!/LarryCoon

    But I believe the old rule of not being able to combine players with TEs still exists.

    You are exacly right. The history of the Celtics in the 50's and 60's..... Everytime a team was in financial trouble they would sell their star to the Celtics for cash. They were the NBA's Yankee's

    WTF?!?!?! Wow, the hell with it. Give them Howard too. PG: Paul, SG: Kobe, SF: who cares, PF: Okafur, Center: Howard. Are you fucking serious?

    As long as there's no Howard, I'm not too scared of CP3/Kobe/Bynum. Their defense just took a major hit.
