Season ending thoughts

[Jetset]

dwight isn't a priority, hes more of an option. i hated to see odom leave and ill hate to see gasol leave but i think its inevitable.
I'm pretty sure bynum's going nowhere, considering the FO man-love.

The lakers are said to be hesitant about investing big money into Bynum for the long term. It isn't cut and dry as it was once believed.

[Jajwanda]

Would anyone else be surprised to see Anthony Davis a Laker by way of Bynum?

[AnaheimRoyale]

Astonished. Zero chance of that happening.

[Jajwanda]

Be astonished. Why is it so perplexing?

How would it happen? WHY would happen?

dont count on howard, he has made it clear he doesnt want to be here, about the only thing he hasnt wavered on. gasoft has to be gone no questions about it. id say sign jamison to be the stretch 4, try and trade gasol for iggy. just a thought

I doubt it would happen, but we could trade him for his rights as the 1 pick.
I would not put my trust in Davis. Sure he has potential, but he could also be a bust!

Would he want to be here if Deron was here..

This is what happens when you sell draft picks year after year. We probably could have had Ty Lawson or Jrue Holiday right now if management didn't feel all rookies outside the lottery were useless, but of course Sasha Vujacic at 5 million per is a valuable asset and rookies making 800k are a waste of money. Every year I just smacked my head as the lakers sold off picks that eventually turned into rotation players on other teams or could have been used combined with a couple million cash to move up, players that would have done even better practicing with Kobe, Artest, and FIsh.

Blow this roster up, completely retool... Lamar Odom is done folks.. we got swept in the playoffs with him on the roster. Please can we not mention him anymore.

[picc]

We got swept in the playoffs with Kobe on the roster too. And Bynum. And Phil. And Pau.

Lamar was the 6moy last year. It would be great to get him back. Remember how bad our bench was this postseason?

[TruSkool]

getting lamar back would be a godsend...then trading bynum for dwill or dwight

I just want Doc to finally admit that I was right about calling Troy and McRoberts trash that wasn't going to help us.

Where you at Doc ?

I was strongly in favor of Troy Murphy as well.

I had him as my fifth big and would have started him (w/only 20 mins a game) at some points during season (before Hill arrived) to make room for Gasol off the bench.

If Bynum is still here next year I would sign him again though. He shouldn't be in the rotation, but I like his ability to space the floor with a legit, big boned low post threat like Bynum.

He just isn't used properly (reference Matt Bonner).

[Jajwanda]

I expect that spot to be filled by Michael Be Easy. I think the plan originally was to get rid of Blake-Fisher in order to bring in the salary of Michael Beasley. I realize that Hill was productive was L.A. but I think Beasley is the guy they want out of that spot.

holy cow, those guys were useless. i couldnt tell you how many times i was screamin at the tube, when the LAKERs swung the ball to a wide open troy and then . . . BRICK.

[Jajwanda]

Also a note on Goudelock. He envisions himself to be a scoring PG so take that as a you will.

I think he has the tools to be a solid defender, bring the ball up, make the right choice, and score much the way the team needed Steve Blake to.
