Look Jason Smith was part of that trade, he wanted a multi year deal (which he ended up getting in NO) Lakers front office said NO. Thats it, there is the reason the trade did not go through. As much as I dont like Stern its pointless to keep saying he is the reason.
wtf are you talkin' about

Don't get me wrong, I hated the "basketball reasons" and the turmoil caused by Stern and Co. as much as anyone here. I was also very intrigued about the possibility of adding Howard to that triumvirate, which would have been the ultimate move by Mitch and the Buss's.
All that said, I think we can survive that squashed trade. We're going to have to make some very smart moves, though.
