If he is a Texas resident cheering for the Lakers, chances are good he cheers for the Yankees, too.

Pretty clearly said I'm not a Lakers fan. But anybody that thinks a team that averages >4 trips to the NBA finals a decade is going anywhere is delusional.

FACT: The Lakers will be in the lottery before they are in the Finals again.

This is the here and now. The lakers have NOTHING to build off of and have no hope for the immediate future (unless like I posted earlier about Lebron) period. All dynasty's end eventually ask Boston, Chicago etc

I bet they win at least one championship before 2020.

the yankees won the most reg season games in the 80s (and went to a WS, too) and 90s, but they were garbage in the late 80s-93

by the way, why is this even brought up. The lakers will probably make the playoffs with dwight, but there's not a chance in hell, with the way the new CBA is constructed, that they'll be a big time contender in the next 2-3 years, with or without dwight.

I don't think the Lakers will win a title in the next 7 years.

And they will be in the lottery before they make the Finals again.

With a strong draft class next year, it wouldn't surprise me to see them miss out on Dwight, amnesty Gasol, bring Kobe along VERY slowly and hope for a great pick next year. The Lakers don't have their 2015 pick due to Nash.

Token,
I was pointing out that the Yankees don't "always" win like a poster said, I was stating they missed the postseason for a decade from '82-'95

They should have been in the lottery this year.

Even if they get Howard back, an injury plagued team just got older, and a center that sometimes needs motivation would have been signed to a long term deal.

Unless the Western Conference turns into the Eastern Conference, the Lakers are missing the playoffs this year.


And, with the structure of the new CBA, the Lakers are in big trouble.

I bet he's going to sign with the Mavs. He doesn't want to share the limelight with James Harden.

With the Mavs, Nowitzki is on the downside of his career. Howard will be the main guy and that's what he always wanted.

If he wants to be a lottery team for his next contract then go to Dallas. Lets no kid ourselves, Dwight isn't a spring chicken, he will be 32 when this contract expires

Actually he'll be 31 if he signs with another team

I'm hearing that Shawn Bradley and Wang ZhiZhi will be part of the Mavs contingent in LA.

Couldn't he also put an opt out clause in his contract, allowing him to get out of this contract after the 3rd season and start his next full max deal at 30? Assuming he leaves LA of course.
