Re: So now that we've got him, will Dwight stay?
Is the new talent scout that hot chick?
I don't remember LeBron joining a "layover" team for a year before coming to the Heat. That's what I'd consider team-hopping. Three uniforms in three seasons. |

Re: So now that we've got him, will Dwight stay?
He probably stays in LA, unless he really ends up hating it there or just wants to play in his hometown of Atlanta. He's been friends with Josh Smith since AAU ball. But there weren't many Atlanta rumors, mainly because their front office isn't Orlando's front office. Still, I'd say he probably stays with the Lakers.

He's staying 100%.
No team with cap space will have better chance to win. He get's most money with Lakers now with Bird rights.

Re: So now that we've got him, will Dwight stay?
Only way we lose him is if the team doesn't gel and has serious chemistry issues. With guys like Nash, Gasol and Jamison on the team...I'd say that's unlikely. All of these guys have made it clear that their main priority is to win, so hopefully we won't have much of an ego problem.
When he becomes a FA and sees that the Lakers can offer the most money, along with a roster of Nash, Kobe and Gasol, it'll be an easy decision. Plus, he'll know that the team's books are all clear the following summer, so they can build a team around him. Carmelo, Rudy Gay, Danny Granger, Dirk, Z-Bo and possibly even Miami's Big 3 will all be Free Agents by then. The teams that can or will likely have max cap room... Atlanta Dallas Houston Charlotte Cleveland Phoenix Philadelphia Detroit Sacramento Utah Orlando Milwaukee Toronto You can rule out basically all of those except for Atlanta, Dallas and Phoenix. Would he leave LAL for any of those three teams? He'd have to be crazy.
