My favorite trade yet!

As long as we’re dreaming…. Shaq and Kobe reunited, plus Lamar Odom (and Smush!); KG and Wade invade Hollywood!

Los Angeles Lakers - Incoming Players:
Dwyane Wade
Antoine Walker
Kevin Garnett

Outgoing Players: Andrew Bynum, Kwame Brown, Lamar Odom, Kobe Bryant

Laker rotation: Mihm, KG, Walton, DWade, DFisher; rotation subs Turiaf, Cook, AWalker, Radmanovic, Evans, Farmar/ Crittendon

A deep team, with a nice blend of youth and experience. Eating Walker's contract and losing Bynum is worth it to upgrade longterm at 2 and 4 and rid themselves of the Kobe headache. I could easily see this team threatening the Texas threesome and Phoenix for West supremacy.

Minnesota Timberwolves - Incoming Players:
Dorell Wright
Andrew Bynum
Jason Williams
Michael Doleac
Kwame Brown
2 Miami #1 picks

Outgoing Players: Kevin Garnett

Minny gets young prospects and expiring contracts and future picks. Just what they want for KG.

Miami Heat - Incoming Players:
Lamar Odom
Kobe Bryant

Outgoing Players:
Dorell Wright
Dwyane Wade
Antoine Walker
Jason Williams
Michael Doleac

Miami rotation: Shaq, Haslem, Odom, Kobe, Smush Parker (who already signed with them); rotation subs are Zo, Simien, Quinn, plus whomever else they sign with rest of midlevel…. if they could swing JC Navarro or some other decent PG with what's left of the exception, they could have the most fearsome starting 5 in the league, plus the best backup center in Zo. If they stay healthy, an obvious favorite to come out of the East and play in the Finals.
