They absorbed his salary using the Lamar Odom Trade Exception, 2 first round picks and 2 second round picks.
Kareem talking more about Bynum: That's how most Laker fans felt about Drew during his time in the purple & gold. Thank god Jim Buss finally realized this past summer that Drew is not a franchise type player you build around.
Buss has been trying to get Dwight for almost a full year (would have been more than a year if not for the lockout)
I honestly think it was more Mitch who kept telling Jim Buss they need to trade for Dwight.Jim Buss for awhile his stance was Bynum was untouchable.
So I Am in Oakland, Ca and I have DirecTV. So what your saying is if I have the sports package (which I have), I will get all the Laker shows but no games? and I still have to buy league pass? Is this what they are negotiating? Or is that portion concrete and they are just negotiating price?
Last December However, according to Ken Berger from CBS Sports, it now seems that Jim Buss is willing to part with Bynum if the right deal comes along: "It’s no surprise to anyone that the Lakers will be one of the primary suitors in a possible trade for Howard, and a person with knowledge of the team’s strategy told CBSSports.com that executive Jim Buss finally has dropped his opposition to trading center Andrew Bynum “for the right deal.” That’s code for “a deal for Dwight Howard,” and it’s clear from those familiar with Howard’s thinking that he’d like to join the Lakers." Jim is no idiot. When the Magic were ready he would give up Bynum in a hot second.
That's correct.But of course TWC & Directv need to reach a distribution deal to even carry the channels first. Directv's monthly channel pricing plans which includes a sports tier which has YES, a bunch of random FSN networks, Big Ten Network.I think falls under the Premier package and Choice Ultimate.That's where this new channel would fall under.Yes they are still negotiating the monthly per customer price which would get passed down to the customers.Which is why Directv and the other TV providers are holding out right now because TWC is reportedly asking for $3.95 a month.Which would be the 2nd highest price in the nation for a regional sports network. NBA League Pass right now is $179 which lets you watch on both TV and the PC version.What you can do is call up Directv and speak to the retention department and say your thinking about canceling and ask them to give you a discount price for NBA League Pass.They usually will offer you a discount because they don't want to lose a customer.
