Stephen A. has just raised my level of hate towards the Knicks. Wouldn't be sad if someone ripped his vocals out.

Lakers should sign him just for his textbook inbounds passes tbh.....
Both cities suck and both owners are assholes, but you wouldn't take playing with Kyrie over playing with Jameer Nelson?Rumor mill says that Bynum will not sign an extension with Orlando…Does anybody know what is so bad about Orlando? Bynum would sign an extension with Cleveland but not Orlando?
Sources:
"ESPN representatives reignite trade talks with magic and lakers team representatives"
Sources state that ESPN reps have been on the phones all day with both teams insisting this deal gets done one way or another and have stated "we will not rest" until Dwight is in a Lakers uniform.
With the Phillies resurgence and the Howard saga being very very entertaining, it has helped calmed my excitement for NY Giants training camp.
Living in FL>>>>>>>>>>>>>Living in Cleveland.
No state income tax either.
Unless your name is Trayvon and/or are a child of Casey Anthony...
I figured of all the people to hate on Orlando, you'd be #1 after the rant on picture-taking asians tbh.
Is Dwight even healthy?
Florida sucks. I wish it would fall into the ocean.
That's Kissimmee/Disney World area, not all of Orlando.
Orlando is affluent, has good mix of old and young, lots of golf courses, and is a centralized location for a lot of decent sports (Magic, UCF, Gators, etc.)--not a far drive to Tampa either for more pro sports, or Daytona for beaches and racing. The weather is nice, and like i said--no state income tax.
Cleveland is gray 9 months of the year and is tremendously depressing.
People from Cleveland think their city is great & Cavs fans like Dan Gilbert…
My question is what is wrong with Orlando? Shaq & Dwight were given anything they wanted…The owner does not seem like a bad guy…
Shows what you know! Rock n Roll Hall of Fame…Drew Carey ring a bell...

Cavs trade talks involving Bynum lack much substance: The Cavaliers have remained in trade talks with the Lakers...The Lakers are trying so hard to create a super team, but they are failing miserably. Teams are just toying with them. It only took Miami 8 days into free agency to create their super team. It has been 18 days and nothing is close. This has been such a fun storyline. Howard is going to stay in Orlando, and the Lakers will still have a really slow team.
The Cavaliers have remained in trade talks with the Lakers and Magic, but little progress has been made and no deal is remotely close to being concluded.
ESPN.com reported on Wednesday that the Cavs have moved ahead of the Rockets as a facilitator in a deal with the Lakers and Magic, but a league source briefed on the talks maintained Wednesday this is all a leverage tactic to get the Rockets to up their offer for Howard.
A source with knowledge of the Lakers' plans confirmed Tuesday in Las Vegas that any talk of progress in trade talks regarding Howard was incredibly premature.
The Rockets remain the only team in the league with both the assets and desire to acquire Howard themselves. The Lakers need a third team to get something done because of their cap constraints and lack of desirable assets and the Nets are out of any trade talks until the middle of January.
The Rockets, meanwhile, still haven't signed any of their three first-round picks from last month's draft, hoping to at least include some -- if not all -- in a future deal for Howard. Once the players sign their rookie contracts, they cannot be traded for 30 days.
The Cavaliers to this point have not seemed inclined to include any of their young players in any potential deals. That includes Dion Waiters, Tristan Thompson, Tyler Zeller and reigning Rookie of the Year Kyrie Irving.
Cavs general manager Chris Grant did leave Las Vegas summer league this week earlier than expected, as ESPN.com reported, but it was so he could return in time for the surgery on Irving's fractured right hand. It had absolutely nothing to do with any trade talks moving forward, a league source said.
In an intriguing twist, the Rockets were believed to be incredibly high on Zeller, whom the Cavs selected 17th overall. They had three picks in the middle of the first round, and had two chances at him before the Cavs traded up to No. 17. Yet they never selected him.
The belief of at least one front office official involved in the trade talks is that the Rockets were selecting players the Magic liked in an effort to get a deal done.
The Cavs first surfaced as a potential home for Bynum when he recently listed Cleveland as a destination he'd consider when his contract expires at the end of the season. It would be stunning for a player to leave the Lakers and sign in Cleveland and the report was widely dismissed initially on the simple basis that the Cavs are one of the handful of teams that have the cap space to sign him.
In truth, Bynum and Cavs coach Byron Scott have a close, personal relationship that has grown over the years as a result of their mutual ties to the Lakers. One source with knowledge of Bynum's thinking said Bynum respects Scott as a coach and could be intrigued by the Cavs' up-and-coming roster as opposed to the Lakers' collection of aging stars.
Bynum's ties to Scott should leave everything open to consideration, but at this point, there isn't much substance to any of the trade negotiations
What else can the Rockets offer? Pretty sure they handed ORL a blank check for everything within their power.
Dude runs a pyramid scheme.
Honestly, golf courses and watching rednecks all named Ernie turn left for hours on a track isn't any more appealing than gray skies and rivers that burn.
BB, have you actually ever been to ORL and toured the parts that DD is talking about?
It's looking like the Rockets will get their bag of peanuts and it won't include Bynum
Cavaliers Emerge As Third Team In Lakers, Magic Howard For Bynum Talks
Jul 18, 2012 5:18 PM EDT
The Cavaliers have emerged as a facilitator in a trade that would send Dwight Howard from the Magic to the Lakers.
Cleveland would acquire Andrew Bynum for a package of draft picks and Anderson Varejao.
Los Angeles would receive Howard, while Orlando would acquire Varejao and a collection of picks.
The Rockets have also been engaged in three-way trade talks.

I think they're only giving up one rookie (alledgedly). Orlando probably wants 2 or all 3 plus give away more bad contracts.What else can the Rockets offer
Listen trust me Bynum doesn't trust his own body..he literally has no choice but to sign an extension it doens't matter if he was traded to Timbuktu...he's going to sign because he knows he'll never see that kind of money again..He's good for one Max or close to it and that's it...He's going after the money and playing time..He doesn't give a about rings trust meRumor mill says that Bynum will not sign an extension with Orlando…Does anybody know what is so bad about Orlando? Bynum would sign an extension with Cleveland but not Orlando?
I have an alternate theory for you Cavs fan..If Gilbert really wants to lay the wood to MJ and Lebron at the same time he should go ahead and facilitate a trade that lands Dwight in LA..he could kill 2 birds with one stone...repay MJ for hitting that ing shot over Craig Ehlo and then repay Lebron by sending Dwight our way and forming an even more formidable Super team
