Even if they kept Afflalo, the fact is that they weren't getting a franchise player back for Dwight Howard. What they can get are young players and picks that can lead to them drafting one. What they have now is a team that's gonna suck (so goal #1 accomplished) and a team that has youth in the frontcourt (honestly, a O'Quinn/Nicholson/Harkless front court is really talented. If they keep them, their main man will be a guard, and if that's Shabazz, Orlando got everything they needed)

The worst part is that this season still needs to be played out.

Bynum isn't a franchise player? They're going to get a better player in the draft?:comeon:

Tanking in Florida... cuz those LOYAL Orlando fans are going to come right back once they draft that franchise player?:childplease:

I don't like this shyt Ritzy.

Btw, you got Chandler at the 4? I got him at the 3. :smugfavre:

Kosta gonna be getting some 4 minutes, too.

I love Afflalo, this shyt hurts my breh. :damn:

but Iggy is a damn beast. the 6ers always asked too much of dude on the offensive end, but now he's a third option behind Trigger Ty and Gallo. he can focus on his strengths with the Nugs like he's doing in the Olympics.

Chandler was the Knicks starting 4 when we made the trade. he can definitely play a little stretch 4 off the bench.

Just as it was just getting good
I'm a celtic fan but :to: for the next 2 years at least
They're getting a title with this nucleus. The discount talent they're going to be able to attract :noah:
Having a possible dominant big man for the next 5 years :wow:
Combined with possibly being able to flip gasol's expiring for bench help if they don't win the chip this year :ohlawd:

Congrats!

I'm not confident that Drew is a franchise player in every sense, but he's damn close and other GM's know it.

Since he came into the league every single trade discussion the Lakers have been in other GM's have asked for Bynum. Other coaches throughout the league have praised Bynum's play.

Bynum has all the tools to be the most dominate players in the league, but he gotta get his head straight first.
