This is so awesome.

HAHAHAHAHA. It fell through, so awesome. What looked like a horrible day turns out awesome in the end.

But does this mean he can't be traded anywhere now? The league can't possibly make them keep him, can they?

This is nuts. This was a *BAD* trade by the Lakers, but other owners so jealous of their shiny object they blocked it anyway.

 

Agree? I didn't want him there, but looking hindsight, was it a good or bad trade?

 

My analysis:

Surface: Adequate.

Undersurface: Increases Chances of Dwight coming in some form or fashion. So perhaps good.

So you guys DO realize this makes the league look far more rigged than the trade itself would have, right?

That's what I want to know.. If the league isn't letting him play with Kobe they damn sure aren't gonna just let him come play with Dwight.. This will be very interesting

Would they mind trading him to a small-market team? Like an Orlando? I feel as though most of the league would approve an Orlando trade since it is a small market team and would have someone to challenge Miami in the same division, of which everyone hates and wants to see lose anyway.

We don't care at this point. anything to get power away from LA/BOS

Not even close.

So this is either a really good thing (we get CP3), or a really bad thing (Dwight has a lot more opportunities to go to LA).
