Their team ain't bad now too.. they got NickYoung to replace William's scoring

Holiday,Turner,T. Young,Lavoy Allen, Bynum.. then N. Young, Hawes,Wright and KWAME BROWN as their core bench

As of right now, I think 76ers did well in this trade, as true centers are EXTREMELY hard to come by nowadays....I think Bynum will be a 20/10 guy, so long as he can stay healthy....I also picture their starting line-up being as follows:

Holiday, Turner, T.Young, Hawes, Bynum......Hawes will get to move to his natural position at PF and he has really developed his game....biggest issue with him is also staying healthy enough to stay on the court...

Steve Nash must of blown his load when he found out about the trade. Talk about perfect timing for him going to the Lakers. I guess Kobe won't be able to hog the ball with Nash dishing it to Howard now as well.

Cheering for Nash. But Dwight Howard ... :heckno:

Mozo 08-10-2012 03:34 PM

OKC is still a better team than LAL.

Its funny how everyone is already jumping ship (referring to annoying people on facebook aka fair weather fans)... it started with Lakers -> Chicago -> Dallas -> OKC -> Lakers

Heat 2013

C'mon man...no way you can say that OKC is better than LA.....Lakers biggest weakness is Nash's defense which Howard more than makes up for anyway.... & with Nash running the offense now, that team got 100x better even without Howard...

but yes, I agree: Heat 2013 ;)

For comparisons sake ... the only team to be a repeat winner 10 years in the NHL was Detroit 2002 & 2008, they had 9 different winners in 10 years.

What I'm trying to say is ... spread out the talent! Make ALL the NBA games exciting! It should make the league overall more profitable, who wants to watch games like Bobcats vs Bucks now?... the seats are completely empty... Actually who even wants to watch Lakers vs Toronto?... when you know it's gonna be an absolute blow out?

Would be boring as hell to watch. You do realize terrible teams who made terrible management decision have already been awarded season after season with high draft picks?

Do I agree that all should pitch in to spread the talent and help management like David Kahn or Michael Jordan wins some Larry O'Brien? No.

Do I want to watch a bunch of Denver Nuggets? No. I would rather watch the NCAA. There, talents is spread out and kids play hard ALL the time.

The NHL :fuckthatshit:

Mike Oxbig 08-10-2012 06:25 PM

When are Lakers ticket coming out? I gotta get ahold of Sun 27 vs Oklahoma City tickets!

edit: Tickets will go on-sale to the public on September 22nd, 2012. More details about the public on-sale will posted once it is finalized. This page will be updated with the details.

wuuhoo 08-10-2012 08:59 PM

no love for the nuggets? :p they got so much better with the addition of Iguodala.

lawson
Iguodala
Gallinari
Faried
Mcgee

Chandler
Miller

G-spec 08-10-2012 09:31 PM

^ gotdang, that's a lovely lineup right there....


AND YES FINALLY NASH CAN WIN HIS CHIP !!!
maybe more than one who knows..... I refuse to believe Nash will bring the Lakers anything less than a chip this season, the only thing I see possibly going wrong is Kobe alpha maleing this shit and shooting the Lakers out of games.... big possibility of that happening, but I hope his chase for more rings will put his ego in check

So you think it's impossible for Miami to beat them? You think that, under the condition that Kobe doesn't be a ball-hog, it's a given that Lakers will win and nothing any other team does can slow them down?

Lol there is a token white guy on the USA olympic basketball team ( Kevin Love )

Anyways, why the hell are the opposing countries bothering to face off against the dream team.

Carmelo Anthony, Lebron James, Kobe Bryant, Kevin Durant, Westbrook, and that unibrow guy.

You'll need at least 30 white guys on each player to even stand a chance. Might as well quit and spare yourself the humiliation.

They don't have to make a big fuss about it, it would have been much easier and respectful to the team if they did all this behind closed doors. The value of Howard went straight to the gutter as soon as he admitted he wants out, just look at what Magic got back in this trade? :fuckthatshit: ... scrubs and low draft picks for the top center in the league! Hence the reason I despise LBJ (can't deny his talent but he's still a moron) ... why keep the Cavs in the dark until the very last possible minute and then crush their hopes?... what ever happened to loyalty and respect? A city that poured their hearts out for him for 8 years and he couldn't even give them the decency of letting them know he wants to play else where, or give them a chance to at least trade him for some picks. Instead he rips their hearts out. Now look at Cavs, basement dwellers of the NBA for years to come ... I feel sorry for them.

What's the point of awarding them all these high picks when the PLAYERS that are drafted don't even want to play for that team??

First of all they are NOT the Dream Team, not even close, as Sir Charlies put it best:
"This team would crush the Dream Team by 70 points ..... IF WE PLAYED TODAY!"
As for the rest of your post ... :seriously: :facepalm:

First off, the players honestly don't owe the fans shit...fans watch the game because they find it entertaining and that's what the players get paid for: to entertain the fans.....secondly, things can only be kept behind closed doors for so long....their's far too many Insiders involved that information is bound to leak eventually....Thirdly, Cleveland knew that there was a chance that LBJ might leave and they made that decision to hold onto him....that was a risk they were willing to take and there's nothing more to it....and that's funny - you "feel sorry" for Cleveland now that they are the "basement dwellers of the NBA".....You didn't feel sorry for LeBron when he was single-handedly taking his team deep in the playoffs every year while having guys like Mo Williams and Anderson Varejao as #2 and #3 guys? For 8 years, Cleveland management didn't give him shit....Even Mike Brown couldn't do shit for him....Horrible coach...

Honestly, after watching these guys play, they could definitely compete, and maybe even beat the Dreamteam....I used to be the same way as you in that I'd say 'no chance in hell' could they compete....but I honestly think this squad is up to the same level...

but I agree with you on "As for the rest of your post ... :seriously: :facepalm:"

Wtf, are u retarted?that's not an ordinary token white guy. That's Kevin Love.. He probably the best player in the paint and a 3 point shooting champ. They aren't invincible. They had a few close calls with some "white" team. Don't compare them to dream team.
