Foolish if true.

I see what their reasoning could be, but still.


If you could somehow flip YNB into Deron or some shit, you'd have an instant dynasty.


Deron
Durant
Dwight

Lol

thats actually a fantasy "it would be cool if it happened" trade i posted in the pre-season thread.

3-D!
 
New Jersey @ Charlotte
Utah @ Philly

apparently goldenstate/LA still in the talks.
rumours coming from bay area talk radio.
new, revised deal:


lakers get:Monta ellis, david lee and dorrell wright
Golden state gets:gasol, crazy ron ron, and ebanks

it was also mentioned that its a primer to get dwight to LA.
dont know how that works out though.

Why would Lakers want Ellis?

Haven't seen much of Monta besides recaps on ESPN News and NBA TV, but isn't he having a really good season?


Ellis
Mamba
Wright
Lee
Bynum


Sorta want. I just can't get passed the fact that 60% of our starting 5 would be from Golden State.

So strange.
 
Wasn't it speculated that Dwight has been lobbying for Orlando to trade for Monta? Maybe it's to make LA a more favorable destination for him. I don't like it. Fuck Dwight, don't make trades just to try and lure him here or build your team around the "chance" you might get him. That's what shit teams do. Lakers should be building to the future post-Kobe/Pau.


Simmons says a lot of dumb things, but he's right on the money here:

Has there ever been a better "We'd be selling high if we traded him right now" example? From 2007 through 2011, Bynum played 35, 50, 65 and 54 games. Miraculously, he's played 35 consecutive games this season … in a lockout-shortened season, no less! We keep hearing that Jimmy Dolan 2.0 (a.k.a. Jimmy Buss)3 won't trade Bynum because that's his guy, but man, wouldn't it make sense to flip a healthy-right-now-at-this-moment Bynum for a point guard and/or multiple pieces for one last three-year run behind Kobe and Gasol? What am I missing? Could you get Lowry, Chase Budinger and Luis Scola for him? What about Nash and Gortat? What about Danny Granger and Roy Hibbert? What about Josh Smith, Zaza Pachulia and Jeff Teague? What about Elton Brand, Nik Vucevic and Evan Turner for Bynum and cap fodder? What about … ?

Been saying this since last year. Bynum is not the future for LA.

Yes Monta is one of Dwight's boys, he's on "the list".

There is no way that OKC deal was true because there is not a chance in hell OKC would turn that down. I'd be okay with it, certainly better than any of the other rumored deals out there.

i dont know man.
Dwight
David Lee
wright or barnes
kobe
monta

fisher would finally hit the bench and monta taking a huge chunk of his current minutes.
that's a fantastic starting 5

Monta and Kobe is a terrible pairing in the back court. Monta doesn't create offense or set guys up enough. Also no guarantee Dwight comes if its true Orlando isn't high on Bynum. Even with that, I don't like Monta and Lee's contracts at all. Will make it too hard to build around. Drew is the one that needs to go for pieces. Jimmy is fuckign things up.
 
Wow, I thought the lakers would be out for blood after those 2 pathetic loses, but they just look SOOO bad right now. A wolves team minus Love is clowning them

It's time for Mamba to make his transition to SF. Play almost exclusively in the post, where he excels. He instantly becomes efficient, while the team becomes extremely balanced on offense. Lee could move out 16 feet, be threat to hit his jumper, while making room for Mamba to operate in the post.

Ellis
Mamba
Lee
Dwight

I think we got you beat. Celts didn't have any of the big four on the floor and were still not gaining any traction.

SFs are getting bigger, stronger and more athletic. Part of what helps Kobe is that on D there are no other good SGs around anymore.

id trade ellis/lee/wright

but not for that big softie and i would stay away ron ron. and who is ebanks?

you could potentially get dwight howard with ellis/lee and wright

best thing for golden state is to tank from here on out and trade at the draft but we'll have to see if mark 'playoffs' jackson is willing to do that... not that the draft has ever really helped the warriors anyway.
 
I NEED the Knicks to play good tonight. I am sick and tired of defending Lin and co to my friends. Sick of my friends having so much damn ammo lol
 
Orlando has either the bravest Front office of all time or the stupidest, 6 months and he's gone for free. Are they waiting until midnight to finally give in to someones best offer?
