Lkr Posted February 26, 2012 Report Share Posted February 26, 2012 It follows the logic of signing Rasheed:There's a rumor circulating involving Howard, where the deal actually will come down March 1. It goes something like this: The Magic send Howard, SF Hedo Turkoglu and Nelson to the Lakers; the Magic receive Bynum and Gasol. The salaries are close to matching up, making the deal work. A third team, the Toronto Raptors, could be part of the deal or in a separate trade with the Magic, sending PG José Calderon to Orlando. Could be a great deal for the Magic, under the circumstances. There are some obvious holes in the scenario or scenarios. For one, what do the Raptors get out of it? But the biggest hole is this: Howard is apparently cool on joining Kobe in L.A.http://www.orlandosentinel.com/sports/orlando-magic/os-magic-schmitz-sunday-0226-20120225,0,424129,full.column Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lkr Posted February 27, 2012 Author Report Share Posted February 27, 2012 The Magic already rejected Bynum for Dwight.that is why they are throwing in Gasol, Copernicus . The Magic wanted Gasol + Bynum in the offseason Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Check my Stats Posted February 27, 2012 Report Share Posted February 27, 2012 Both teams should have done this deal months ago. Shit is getting ridiculous. LA is seriously going to regret not giving up everything except Kobe for Dwight when they had the chance (assuming they did). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JYD Posted February 27, 2012 Report Share Posted February 27, 2012 (edited) Both teams should have done this deal months ago. Shit is getting ridiculous. LA is seriously going to regret not giving up everything except Kobe for Dwight when they had the chance (assuming they did).Pretty much agree. Bynum is a terrific young player, but there are very very few Howard's that come along. I would do this deal in a heartbeat if I'm both teams...

kingfish Posted February 27, 2012 Report Share Posted February 27, 2012 I have a feeling both sides are just waiting til after the all star break to make the deal. Orlando wanted Howard to stay so they could have a better all star experience for the fans. So they got the most out of him before they ship him off. If we do give up Gasol and Bynum I hope we get more then just Dwight in return. If they threw in Anderson id make the deal for sure. It would be smarter to just keep what we have and upgrade the point guard position. We can do this by playing Blake/Goudelock majority of the minutes, or using the TPE, or signing someone for the vets min. If we upgrade the point and keep our current roster this team will be way better. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DunkinDerozan Posted February 28, 2012 Report Share Posted February 28, 2012 How does TO fit into this? :S I would think if Jose is being traded, it would be to LA, where he could actually be a huge part of a playoff run with Dwight and Kobe.

Warren2ThaG Posted February 28, 2012 Report Share Posted February 28, 2012 This is a fail since he won't resign. Looks like were trying for Rondo-Bass for Pau type deal. Stephen A Smith confirms something along those lines... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
