Lakers to Offer Bynum for Bosh

[Eja117]

for the people saying Toronto wouldn't do this ...what do you think is more likely? Where is the better option considering Bosh probably won't resign with any team other than LA, maybe Miami, Bos, and Cle?

Keep in mind this is a Peter Vecsey rumor.

JJ Hickson, Delonte, Varejao, 1rst rnder


Oden, T Outlaw, Bayless, Kopponen, 2nd rnder

Beasely, Chalmers, 2nd rounder, a lot of filler

Landry, Scola, Budinger, filler

trying to play the Georgia Tech angle Horford, Pachulia, Teague, M Williams

I bet it's just LA media fabricating a story to see the reaction. Toronto would lose big time in this trade.

I think this was reported in the NY Post.

NY Post article with 'LA source'

A Lakers source told me the team had its sights set high, as usual, and planned to target the possible acquisition of Chris Bosh when it got closer to the 3 p.m. Feb. 18 trade deadline, and the Raptors might be more likely to move their Olympian/All-Star while still entitled to compensation.

The sky is the limit with what Bosh might could end up being as a player.I think he has been limited in Toronto with subpar coaching,and medicore players around him,etc.Put him in the right situation with a team like the Lakers,he will or might take his game to the next level in a hurry.

Don't you think some (much) of this is because Bosh is NOT a superstar capable of carrying a team? If he's as good as he seems to think he is, why haven't his teams had more success? Doesn't HE need to be accountable for why his teams have always sucked?

Oh yeah, but he's still an all-star.

There are very very few Duncans and MJs.  We'll see how much he meant to the Raps when he's not there next year

One could have said the same for KG..   I am not comparing the 2, but except for the unfreaking high level of intensity KG has, there are some similarities.  I'm just saying.

I still think if Toronto could get Noah out of Chicago with a combo of other players that could include Taj Gibson, Tyrus Thomas, and/or Kirk Hinrich(though his contract is awful) and a couple first round picks, I think that would be a better deal for Toronto.

Noah, Thomas, Hinrich and a first and second for Bosh and Amir Johnson or Nesterovic maybe.

If this were actually to go down, it would be a depressing steal for the Lakers. I hope they don't get spoon fed another star.

Ok someone slap me! But I would trade a hobbled KG for Bosh if Toronto would except it. Young nucleus of Perk,Rondo & Bosh is pretty darn good. Im only saying that because of the whole uncertainty of KG's injury this yr. It reminds me too much of last season. Besides the Big 3 looks a little old to me so far this year. I hope they are just coasting for the playoff run. Besides Ainge has always said that he woulda trade one of the other BIG 3 had he had the chance so he opened my eyes to always trying to improve your team short & long term.

[TerreHaute]

This would be ridiculous. If this were to actually happen, I would have to put Kupchak down as one of the top GM's of all time, behind Red, of course. Could this guy really fleece another team of it's best player withuot someone else stepping in with a better deal?

New York Post?

All I needed to see.

It would destroy our team... us dealing KG in the middle of the season just seems wrong.

Toronto wouldnt take Garnett.  They dont have a contending team to put around him, his knee is suspect, and his big contract extension is just kicking in.

As much as we Celtics fans would never trade Garnett, I dont think theres a GM in the NBA that would take him at this point, regarding his knee and contract obviously.

I love KG and I hope I dont get blasted for saying that, but it is true.
