A prime Pau would be nasty. Pick and roll, pick and pop, post up the man could do everything along with exquisite passing from the post. If we can find a big like that, he would make D'Angelo, Clarkson and Randle all so much better.

Lamar Odom. All those other players, by the time they left it really was time to move on. The Odom relationship is the only one that was cut way too short.

Vujacic. We're not getting any Maria love from the sidelines anymore.

Really tough to choose between Pau and Lamar but I think I'm leaning towards Lamar. I just loved his energy. Such a great team mate.

I miss Pre-Injury Bynum. A kid with literally unlimited potential at the C position Then injuries and laziness destroyed everything. Hell Kobe treating him like crap didnt help either and his mentality went straight into the dumps.
Imagine if he never got injured
Imagine if he played on a team without the superstar wanting to ship him out and treat him like dog crap
Imagine if his mentality stayed keyed on constantly improving
Bynum had legit HoF talent, a fat teenager who just picked up ball recently turning into what he did for brief coupla years. If he had been balling since 5 years old with proper coaching/training/dietician my goodness...
Regardless cant hate on him. He helped us get 2 rings and Dwight, its the FO's fault for not getting someting out of DHo before he bolted.

I miss Gasol the most... smart smart player, gifted offensively underrated defensively, about as complete a big man you can find

I'm going with Odom. He played small forward when we needed him, slid over to power forward whenever Bynum was perpetually out and took the scoring heat off Kobe when you could tell he was exhausted from scoring 30 a night. Could handle and pass the rock like a point guard, could match up with all the forwards of the time and never complained about coming off the bench when he had to. I've seen lots of lakers next to kobe I loved but Lamar was a special talent, one I was happy to spend my money to watch from the east coast.
He was the sole bright spot from the shaq trade (not counting the ten minutes of "ok" from Caron), and I wanted to see him retire a laker. Sadly it wasn't meant to be.

I'm torn between Luke Walton and Lamar. Lamar was our swiss knife. Walton can literally replace Byron right now. I'm torn between the two because they are responsible for the chemistry and glue to the roster.

Pau. Lots of love for Odom, but Pau was the ultimate in dependability through all the terrible coaches, and was almost as versatile as Odom in his own way.
Too bad everyone hated him here his last few years.
