Kwame Brown back in charlotte?

So much for harmony over what's left of the season. [Dwight Howard] does not want to play for head coach Stan Van Gundy any longer. According to [a Tuesday report] sources, Howard is still upset with Van Gundy confirming [David Pingalore's] report from earlier this month that Howard went to Magic management asking for Van Gundy to be fired. On Friday, the Magic had their physical therapist Ed Manalo travel with Howard to Los Angeles, where Howard went to have his back diagnosed. ... Howard would also likely sit out the postseason, according to the source. Van Gundy said this prior to Monday night's game with Philadelphia: "Our approach is this is our team, the 13 guys that we have without Hedo and Dwight."
I wonder if they regret not trying to get Bynum + Something for Howard?ajalves wrote:Sick of this mother effer.....when does shit like this end?

there aren't many 7 footers without knee problems... shit there aren't many true 7 footers, nevermind ones with the talent and hands that Bynum has. I'd have much rather got Bynum back + some scraps than some combo of Brook Lopez and MarShon Brooks.ajalves wrote:DRiccio21 wrote:i would have taken Bynum for him in a heartbeat.

a 7 footer with a history of knee problems? they could have got more. plus they could have unloaded Turk
He's the 2nd best center in the league, and probably IMO,t he best offensive center in the league.ajalves wrote:DRiccio21 wrote:i would have taken Bynum for him in a heartbeat. Bynum is excellent and still getting better.

19 and 12 this year, and in the last 5 without Kobe, 22 and 14. 12th best PER in the league this season (Howard is 6th).shel311 wrote:He's the 2nd best center in the league, and probably IMO,t he best offensive center in the league.ajalves wrote:DRiccio21 wrote:i would have taken Bynum for him in a heartbeat.

He's young, averaging something like 16 and 12.
Just out of curiousity, what better deals or more could they have gotten? I didn't hear of any non-Bynum deals that were remotely as good, IMO.
