Its happened again.
The Lakers catapult themselves into contention by pulling off a blockbuster trade. As much as I didn't want to believe it, as it lingered in the back of my mind, as Orlando fans wore those "Loyalty" T-shirts, Dwight Howard is becoming a Laker.
SO MANY QUESTIONS
Why did the Magic accept this poo poo platter?
Al Harrington
Moe Harkless
Afflalo
And picks!?
NO PAU?!!?
BYNUM GOES TO PHILLY!?
How did the team that was supposed to get the most in return get the least? Holy shit Orlando you suck dicks.
SO MANY QUESTIONS
I can't wait for Bynum to speak. The guy is slowly creating a trophy case of sayings (Close out games are actually pretty easy). What's he going to say now that he's been traded? I hope its something juicy about Kobe and Coach Brown. LET IT OUT BIG MAN!
What the fuck was the CBA for?! Stern can't step in and veto every trade the Lakers pull off (can he?!). The only reason why Stern may let this go is because Philly got a pretty awesome deal picking up Bynum and Jason Richardson.
Why have 25 other teams? I wonder how the Suns, Magic, and every other medium to small market feels. Including Oklahoma, and San Antonio. Two small market teams that have gotten it to work until this big market juggernaut returned ready to dominate.
Can we just have an 82 game season of Heat vs Lakers?
SO MANY QUESTIONS
Dwight has yet to say he will resign. It sounds like he will test the free agency waters next summer, because he wants that giant pay day. Can he get that giant pay day on the Lakers? Kobe takes up almost have the payroll by himself. If Dwight wants a max contract, the Lakers will be have 3 players sucking up their entire payroll. And next year the CBA will be in full effect creating stricter luxury taxes. Can the Lakers afford it? Will Howard stay? I guess it depends if they win the championship this year...
How many teams can really compete? Heat, Lakers, Thunder, Knicks? Celtics? All of a sudden those bubble teams seem real irrelevant. The Knicks, Pacers, Celtics, Nuggets, Jazz, Clippers, have absolutely no shot.
Is Stern masturbating thinking of all the money he's going to rake in?
SO MANY QUESTIONS
Will this familiar and tired formula of big market teams dominating the NBA ever cease to exist? Will the Lakers always get the most dominate big man in the league? Will the Lakers now be the most hated team in the country?
Do Laker fans even care that their team is made up of almost no home-grown players? You can make the case that Kobe was traded for too. Then Pau, then Nash, Now Dwight. Does a city of sell outs care if they hire sell outs? Not likely.
With all these questions floating around, there's one thing that is certain:
LAKER FANS WILL BE THE MOST ANNOYING FANS IN THE WORLD NEXT SEASON
