    There's a source close to Pau that he's not included in the trade. Lakers with Kobe, Nash, Gasol, Howard is crazy!

    i dont think thats the case, they dont have to dump his salary because there are teams that will trade for him
    i see it as a gamble to get a franchise center
    if the sixers wanted to dump his salary, they would have done so a long time ago

    good trade for all 4 teams i believe
    Lakers are making a mistake trading Gasol. Howard and Gasol will be a beast duo.....they should trade Bynum instead.

    This makes more sense to me. Trading your two star big men for one star big man in return and Al Harrington who can hit the three and score too it's a gamble....but still Lakers break even talent wise on this trade at best. If Gasol stays and instead the Lakers throw in a first and second round pick along with Bynum then it's a nice deal for Los angeles.

    Twitter says Howard and Al Harrington to the Lakers, Iguodala the Nuggets, Bynum to the 76ers, Gasol and Affalo going to the Magic.

    I don't agree then. Lakers will be fun to watch and be a top 2 team in the West but still....I thought Troy Murphy was brought on to fill that role of a big man who can hit deep three's. Trading Gasol not a good move by L.A......Pau was very underrated.

    Lakers already have Jamison. A bit surprised Harrington who is a similar player will be included in the deal.

    All right according to ESPN Pau Gasol is still a Laker

    Nuggets got raped on this deal....Magic get three first round picks and some decent players wow.

    Lakers and Sixers got much better in this deal. Nuggets look like idiots. Magic get a crap load of draft picks and some decent mid level players.

    There is some back dealings here. I guarantee it.

    Howard is one of the biggest phonies in the league...so he ahould fit in there.::eddles this image of a nice fun loving guy...he's a douche...and so limited offensively....he does some things well which will help that team...but this guy should be able to take a post pass and face up and do whatever he wants...against anyone...but he can't...

    Heat vs Lakers.

    Other 30 teams don't bother.

    league isn't stupid though... will make OKC and Chicago into a mega team somehow eventually so at least there is a semblance of parity.

    Parity is something the NBA hasn't seen in 30 years.

    Wow cool..:he's gonna rape a "twilight" Tim Duncan...awesome.....listen there is no denying Howard can be a force at times...but I watch him with the ball sometimes....and I just wonder why this guy doesn't have an offensive repertoire....it should be easy and it's not for him....there's a reason his teams never amounted tok much...:he's just not that next level special...Hes a phony as a person....and as a player he just lacks that something IMO...still a great deal for the lakers...needed something like this when their current roster was getting stale....but Dwight Howard couldn't lick the swimming trunks of a prime Tim Duncan

    G - Nash/Blake/Morris

    G - Bryant/Goudelock

    F - Artest/Ebanks

    F - Gasol/Jamison/McRoberts

    C - Howard/Hill

    will also sign a backup g/f like a Barbosa, Meeks, or Delfino.

    Delfino would be a sick signing. Guy can light it up off the bench in spurts. Reminds me of Eddie House is his hey day off the bench. Great jump shot.

    the 2nd trade makes more sense then the original one did IMO, at least for the lakers.

    im still skeptical if his and nashs backs hold out.

    A source with direct knowledge of the talks told ESPN.com's Marc Stein the Lakers will receive Dwight Howard, the Denver Nuggets will acquire Andre Iguodala, the 76ers will receive Andrew Bynum and Jason Richardson, and the Magic will get Arron Afflalo, Al Harrington, Nikola Vucevic and one protected future first-round pick from each of the other three teams.


    In addition, the Magic will be getting other pieces, including 76ers No. 1 draft pick Moe Harkless, a source told Stein.
