Lakers in trade talks to get Garnett Oh man would this be great!
Sign Up (http://www.latimes.com/sports/la-sp-lakers26jun26,1,6107504.story?coll=la-headlines-sports) I think Kobe would finally shut his hole if the Lakers could actually make this happen. I love Lamar Odom. But Kevin G. and Kobe together would be awesome.

Yeah just heard about that on SC. They say it is a possible 4 way trade with T-Wolves, Lakers, Pacers and Celtics.

Trade discussions initially involved the Lakers, Wolves, Pacers and a fourth team, and sources told ESPN and ESPN.com that that team was the Celtics. They would have gotten Jermaine O'Neal from the Pacers and sent young players to the Wolves. The Lakers would have gotten Garnett, while the Pacers would have landed Los Angeles forward Lamar Odom and center Andrew Bynum. Minnesota would also have acquired at least one of the teams' draft picks, possibly Boston's No. 5 in Thursday's draft

That would be a great deal for the Celts...have there been any more talks about this?

Yeah heard that on the way back, on the road. Seems like they wouldnt get what they want, and the T-wolves might not have even gone with the "deal" because they basically get the Celtics shit.

I am not on the wizards bandwagon yet...I think this year was more of a fluke than of great things to come.
This was the third consecutive year they made the playoffs. What's the fluke?

Point is, people seem to think they are 1 piece away from winning it all, I think they are one peice away from having a high lottery pick. Case in point, you were 4-12 in the final 16 games. I understand injuries play a factor, but 4-12???? (2-8 in the last 10)
In case you didn't notice, they have gone from 45 wins, to 42, to 41. The last two years they exited the playoffs first round.
ps- to me, if you are .500 or barely .500, I don't consider you a playoff caliber team...just fresh meat for the first place teams to feast on.
