would everything else have fell apart? Remember back in 2012 after Howard was traded here, Gasol was still on the block. Josh Smith was also on his way out of Atlanta. Would that trade have kept Howard in LA. Two former AAU best friends, I don't see Howard leaving that. Plus two real athletic bigs to protect the rim for the older Kobe and Nash. What would have happened if Gasol was traded for Smith |

It wouldn't have made a difference because Howard made it clear he didn't wanna play with Bryant.
Those two just couldn't co-exist. It's a shame because talent wise that was as good as any duo in the league at that time. |

Josh Smith is fools gold. He will make boneheaded plays as the rockets advance in the playoffs. |

He didn't want to be here man, doesn't look good when you already here rumors about his dislike of Kobe. I didn't believe it at first but then when watching those preseason games and then the final nail hiring MDA it was just set in stone. |

Uhhhhhh I am good. We may suck now but I don't think a team of Smith and Howard, assuming Kobe still hurt, makes the playoffs. Not the Dwight that is playing now. |

Really? A thread for this?
What happens if Gasol was traded for a box of chocolates. Would there be a penalty levied by the league? If so, how much? Would we get to keep the box of chocolates? Could we eat them or do we have to leave them intact?
What if they melted? |
