They weren't part of the championship team. Ratliff, Caracter, and Ebanks are also missing.

looks like they kept Ron away from the kids huh.

Angles or is Bynum taller than Pau?

If so, it could mean that Bynum is actually 7'1 or Pau is only 6'11. It does look like Lamar is 6'10 and nothing more.

Not sure, another possibility is Bynum actually topped out at 7'2''. If I remember right he was drafted at 7'0" and was supposed to grow another couple inches, so its entirely possible.

My Parents were season ticket holders for many years and they got to watch the Lakers practice at the El Segundo Practice Facility before the 2010 season started.
My Dad got to meet alot of the players including Drew.

He told me that Drew is really 7'2 getting really close to 7'3.
Can grab the rim standing on his tippy toes.


Pau is 7'0 straight up . And Lamar is a legit 6'10 as well.
He also said he thinks Kobe is 6'5.

Bynum doesn't look 4-5 inches taller than Odom. At most, it's 2-3 inches.

Obama can kiss my ass. I voted for that clown, and what does he do?

Signs a bill that increases FHA Mortgage Insurance Premiums, and this after bailing out the banking industry for essentially ruining home values across the country with their irresponsible lending practices. **** you. Thanks for nothing.

/rant

Congrats to the Lakers though.

Ya not to mention the broken promises like: keeping all bills on the net for 3 days for the public to view before they are voted on (broke in the first 3 weeks of office to push though another bailout), transparency (he just went off about assange yesterday), tripling the troop count in afghanistan, keeping guantanamo open, renewing the Patiot Act with even more invasive powers, bailing out the banking industry, and creating an entire cabinet of Goldman Sachs alums and other lobbyists. I'm sorry, I know this is not the place, but I just had to vomit that out.

BTW I think Odom is closer to 6'11'

My personal favorite is the broken promise that he'd allow a one time no penalty withdrawal of $10k from 401k's, which would have helped the middle-class tremendously. I mean he did some good stuff, but he could have done a hell of a lot more. I guess it's hard to knock him too much because the "other side" is doing their best to sabotage any sort of real progress, which is pretty much how our whack ass political system works.
