Is this assuming Russell Westbrook learns what passing is and OKC can actually get past Memphis?

If Dallas plays like they did this series knocking down what seems to be like EVERY single open three...
No way Memphis or OKC beat them.

Ironic that the Lakers got RonRon to match up against Lebron yet that matchup seems to never going to happen.

Stay Classy, LA
******* classless scumbags. It is funny how when they are winning everything is great, but once they start losing they act like a bunch of ******* 3 year olds. ******* classless. Absolute grade school stuff by Bynum. Hopefully he gets suspended

Whats funny is it could actually happen. The Magic will not just let a player like Dwight walk its as simple as that. And the only other 7 footer in the league who has the potential to get to Howards level is Bynum so....

Did I say he would?
No, I didnt.....but do I think that he is the only center in the league who could? yes I do.

You said he as the potential to be. He does not have that potential. He will couldn't and never will be close to as good as Howard. Get taht **** out of here. Howard is one of the best defensive big men of all time. Bynum does not have anything close to that potential

Yeah, no one in the league has the potential to be on Howard's level. But Bynum is solid.

Obviously you havent seen Bynum play.
This kid is 22 years old. Hes been in the league for what 5 years? This ******* guy didnt start playing basketball till his Junior year in high school so he is still learning. He has plenty of potential that he has yet to fill on both sides of the ball. Not to mention the fact that he is a true 7 footer which is very hard to find these days.

Lol at Bynum having that potential. Howard is 1000x the athlete he is. I like Bynum as a player but his ceiling if he stays healthy is something like 18/10/2.5 blocks, well below Dwight. The Magic are not trading Howard for Bynum straight up. Literally a 0% chance. Impending free agency does not mean they are going to give him up for a guy who has a 50/50 chance of playing 50 games in any given season.

Alright Ill put it this way. I think outside of Howard, Bynums ceiling is the highest/closest to Howards.

Where is STRIP defending Josh Smith's jump shot now?
He's ******* terrible and he shouldn't shoot, period. He's like 0-25 so far in this series on jump shots. 90% of those were wide open.

Never said they would do it straight up, so idk where youre going with this. Bynum would be the centerpiece from the Lakers side though.
And yes, I understand you hate the lakers and its hard for you to say good things, but believe it of not....yes! Bynum does have potential.

Homer glasses are blinding you. Bynum is a very solid center. And at 22, he has potential to be one of the best in the league. But Bynum is not in the same league as Howard in terms of athleticism. Bynum could never be as good as Howard because his ceiling is not that high.

Will we ever see Bynum compete in the dunk contest?
Howard's athletic ability alone puts him in a different stratosphere in terms of potential.

3 way trade
Lakers: Kobe, Bynum, pieces
Orlando: Howard to LA, pieces
New Orleans: CP3 to LA, pieces
Give up an aging super star for 2 young ones? :D

Bynum is quite a bit bigger than Howard too. Not alot of 7 footers participate in the dunk contest.
Bynum is more of a technical/fundamental player. Im just saying his potential as a center is the highest behind Howard. Obviously he is nowhere near his athleticism.

You responded before I edited my post, Bynum definitely has potential, but it's nowhere near Dwight which isn't really a slight to Bynum because no one is. And the way you responded sounded like you meant straight up. If you meant Bynum and a lot more then you're right it's possible.

Personally, Idk what else they would give up. Id assume it would be centered around Bynum and Odom maybe?
I just know that the Magic will make sure they get something for the guy.

I don't know about all that.
The Celtics had a similiar situation a year or 2 or even 3 years ago..saying it is over, I even didn't think they would play as good as they did last year.
Difference is the Celts are a better TEAM, but the Lakers will still be talented enough to win, problem is they won't have Phil Jackson. Pau played like ****.
Fish may retire? If so that is an open opp for a starting PG to come play in(Felton?!?)..along with capable back up big men like Dallas.
