If Howard leaves the Lakers...their fans dont realize the damage.

[HemisfairArena]

They wont be able to lure a top free agent without Howard in 2014. Who would want to play there with an old hobbled Kobe bitching and complaining?
Jim Buss?...enough said
Mike D'Antoni...enough said again.
The Lakers arent gonna get LeBron...so there best bet is a guy like Paul George in 2014. LMAO
They will be like the Lakers waiting 12 years between titles from 1988 to 2000 only this time will be longer...maybe 15-20 years.

[TheGoldStandard]

David Stern will have an envelope for Adam Silver, inside will be instructions to allow Lakers to steal away whoever they want for practically nothing.

[Nathan89]

You are an idiot if you think the Lakers can't get talent in free agency.

Why did we trade away Paul George? Why? It still doesn't make sense!!!

They've been spoiled with great big men (top 3 talent) since getting Shaq with guys like Gasol/Bynum/Howard. They're going to go ape shit when they realize what it's like playing with an average big man and what an impact they make, Spurs fans know just how hard it is to get a great big man, 2 is almost impossible. They've been giving credit to Kobrick, and not their big men which is what made them a special team.

[dallasmaverickslose]

HemisfairarArena at it again... Lakers are better off without th cancer that is Dwight Howard. He's a chemistry killer.

[RD2191]

you stupid faggot...I schooled you and now look at your bitch ass.

:lmao

[CitizenDwayne]

Say what you want about Kobe, Dwight is a certified ass clown and has done absolutely nothing to improve his game or the Lakers' chances. All this "stay D-12" stuff is ridiculous.

[HemisfairArena]

You know what...I apologize. I made this thread to see what posters thought and I took a stance on one side. My apologies to Nathan89. I was wayyyy out of line just looking to discuss an NBA topic. Mods should just close the thread if they want and be done with it.

Lakers are in a tough position imo...I don't think their good with or without him. Tough spot to be in.

[Man In Black]

Who are the last few Free Agents that the Lakers have signed, not traded for?

[Raven]

you stupid faggot...I schooled you and now look at your bitch ass.

:lol

[Raven]

anyway i agree with OP, without dwight they are over the luxury and that's without even counting earl clark who will probably get the mid level.

Dwight's play in the latter part of the season was one of the reasons they made the playoffs, he was awful for awhile but he turned it on after the ASB imo

It was probably Pop screaming at him that did it. He needs to recognize.

[mudyez]

I'd much rather see D12 cloak up cap space for nothing than seeing the Lakers with a bunch of cap space go hunting the next few years.

All this "stay D-12" stuff is ridiculous.Obviously you're buying into all that BS that DisneySPN says. Kobe was just as responsible, if no even more so, for the Lakers failures. The problem is that Kobe and Lebron are ESPN's baby faces so they would never trash their favorite kids. Disney wants to portray those two as heroes.
