It's a Celtic fan site, so likely nothing to this. _________________ <-- My avatar is Margaret Nolan from one of the Carry On films. She was the girl who got painted gold in "Goldfinger". Thanks to CaliRyderX for identifying her. |

Like you said, probably nothing to it, but thanks for passing the information on, bro. |

i wish.
it'd suck for him to end up like the next allan houston/anfernee hardaway though.
he's already said that he doesn't know how long he can continue his career because of his back problems. but he makes a boatload of money.

Why would a Celtics site have information on a trade happening to the Lakers? Doesn't make any sense. :roll: |

Didn't Emplay write something about how this would be cool to see happen? Like a game of telephone, that probably passed through a bunch of people and someone posted it as a "rumor". I don't see Houston giving up on Tmac - especially to get Francis back when they already know he can't play within Van Gundy's system. |

Are all us Laker fans in the position to not want to believe anything good happening to the Lakers, now a website and Brock have said the same thing, once it happens people will still say, no credibility. You just have to believe we haven't had or hopes up and then crushed too many times have we. I guess we have, because if it's a good laker trade it has to be pipe or not credible. Keep it going and you will start giving up the will to live. Again BELIEVE! _________________ LAKERS!

Kobe and T-Mac on the same team? That's like trying to have Steven Spielberg direct a movie starring Hitler. |

Same here, but...

No complaints here if we actually got T-Mac. |

Okay... a common student in LA heard in a radio (didn't catch which channel) heard this Tmac crap and told me via my friend. Neither him or I believe it's true, but just to give you the heads up (for those who like Tmac) there's more than one source to this.
Of course I want this to happen.
Of course I have doubts.
But whatever, don't bash me. I'm admitting it seems so untrue, and I'm just posting what i heard, to back this thread up. It may be BS, but if it's not, Tmac would help us A LOT.
We'll see in three days.

naturally, but if we are trading for tmac its not as likely that we'd have to give up bynum. which is a big difference in most peoples minds.
ps. i now doubt the credibility of this site as a result of this update "Just a quick update this morning for you guys. We’ll have much more up by the afternoon. Oh, and to the hundreds of Lakers fans visiting for an update on the T-Mac rumor… I’m still waiting too. Best I can tell you is the deal is almost done, but one side is getting cold feet. In the meantime… read why we think Pierce is as good as Kobe." |

this page has no credibility.
Why would Houston trade T-Mac for Francis? They could get much better players. |

I think you guys missed a very lively discussion on this in LG2 backup forum a few hours ago.
Anyway the thread has been deleted, but you can still go to CL to check because they are still discussing on this trade.
Basically some insiders say that we are indeed getting TMac and so the info is not based on this Celtics fans website |
