why not bosh for howard?
― Daniel, Esq., Sunday, 4 December 2011 18:20 (twelve years ago) link
it isn't equal value, but neither is the guy with no-knees from the lakers, and that's the current no. 1 proposal.
oh, yeah, also orlando could trade howard for that center guy on the nets.
― Daniel, Esq., Sunday, 4 December 2011 18:21 (twelve years ago) link
orlando will get v good offers for howard if hes on the market
― Cooper Chucklebutt, Sunday, 4 December 2011 18:21 (twelve years ago) link
bosh, bynum etc are not gonna get it done
― Cooper Chucklebutt, Sunday, 4 December 2011 18:22 (twelve years ago) link
but he is on the market! he's made clear he's leaving.
― Daniel, Esq., Sunday, 4 December 2011 18:22 (twelve years ago) link
i think i heard a CP3 for howard rumor, but that makes no sense, since CP3 is trying to dictate his new team, too.
hes not carmelo, were talking a perennial mvp candiate at the harest position to fill

yeah sure but theres still tons of time is the thing
it's not a perfect analogy to carmello, but there are some parallels suggesting a team can't just bide its time and expect maximum value.
― Daniel, Esq., Sunday, 4 December 2011 18:24 (twelve years ago) link
CP3, howard, melo plz
― dayo, Sunday, 4 December 2011 18:24 (twelve years ago) link
the cp3 sweepstakes is kind lol but mostly sad because his days as an elite player are v numbered
― Cooper Chucklebutt, Sunday, 4 December 2011 18:24 (twelve years ago) link
so i guess what you're saying is that the joel anthony-for-dwight howard rumor i heard isn't a realistic deal.
― Daniel, Esq., Sunday, 4 December 2011 18:25 (twelve years ago) link
too bad.

well they wont get value unless they get bron, but theyll be able to get a sweet gift basket of young players/draft picks/lesser allstars - when howard moves unless its for bron itll totally be in like a seven team trade just to get all the pieces lined up
― Cooper Chucklebutt, Sunday, 4 December 2011 18:27 (twelve years ago) link
but there will still have to be a major centerpiece. "young players/draft picks/lesser allstars" is hard to sell to your crushed fan-base. and who would that centerpice be? if it's andrew bynum, he's a nice player but that's thin gruel.
― Daniel, Esq., Sunday, 4 December 2011 18:29 (twelve years ago) link
yeah i mean theyll totally get hosed, theres no way to move someone that good and not, unless youre getting back like one of the three other guys who are as good, but that never seems to happen - seems like the lakers dont really have the pieces to make it happen unless... they shipped kobe too !!!
― Cooper Chucklebutt, Sunday, 4 December 2011 18:32 (twelve years ago) link
now that would be interesting
― Cooper Chucklebutt, Sunday, 4 December 2011 18:33 (twelve years ago) link
I would be very very happy to see bynum get traded from the lakers
― dayo, Sunday, 4 December 2011 18:33 (twelve years ago) link
lol kobe's got the biggest contract in the league, how would you even begin to make an offer for him
― dayo, Sunday, 4 December 2011 18:34 (twelve years ago) link
idk and tbh im not sure what the deal w/the new cba is, also w/everyone getting an amnesty chip salary dumps arent gonna be as popular this year maybe making those multi team deals less likely
― Cooper Chucklebutt, Sunday, 4 December 2011 18:36 (twelve years ago) link
not sure if this is like a real thing or w/e
SebastianPruiti SebastianPruiti Chandler to the Nets? Brook Lopez at the 4? Coached by Avery Johnson who played with Duncan and Robinson? I like it...2 minutes ago
― Cooper Chucklebutt, Sunday, 4 December 2011 18:38 (twelve years ago) link
I LIKE IT, TOO.
― Daniel, Esq., Sunday, 4 December 2011 18:38 (twelve years ago) link
as long as it doesn't mean nene to the mavs, i mean.
― Daniel, Esq., Sunday, 4 December 2011 18:39 (twelve years ago) link
feel like okc is coming out of the west this year
― Cooper Chucklebutt, Sunday, 4 December 2011 18:39 (twelve years ago) link
regardless of where chandler lands, last years mavs were total lightning in a bottle
― Cooper Chucklebutt, Sunday, 4 December 2011 18:40 (twelve years ago) link
yeah, OKC has talent. question is whether dallas can hold it together (tho they're getting old).
― Daniel, Esq., Sunday, 4 December 2011 18:41 (twelve years ago) link
lol so you're saying that dirk nowitski isn't the second coming of larry bird?

would have been even easier if you suggested trading wade for howard.
if you suggested trading wade and bron for howard, i wouldn't have known it was you.
― Daniel, Esq., Sunday, 4 December 2011 20:24 (twelve years ago) link
im totally over trading wade now im all abt trading bron, just feel like it would right the narrative of the whole decision fiasco
― Cooper Chucklebutt, Sunday, 4 December 2011 20:32 (twelve years ago) link
would suck for bron tho!
― k3vin k., Sunday, 4 December 2011 20:32 (twelve years ago) link
bet he would get free disney world passes tho

― Cooper Chucklebutt, Sunday, 4 December 2011 20:34 (twelve years ago) link
bet they would let him be a voice in a pixar movie
― q: are we not bel biv men? a: we are bel biv devo (m bison), Sunday, 4 December 2011 20:36 (twelve years ago) link
he could just buy disney world and live in it.

it would be cool to try and sleep on space mountain while it's moving.

by "my team," is pau referring to the lakers or the team the lakers will trade him to?
― Daniel, Esq., Sunday, 4 December 2011 22:12 (twelve years ago) link
yes.
― Aimless, Sunday, 4 December 2011 22:32 (twelve years ago) link
pau's going to be a great addition to the raptors.
