I kinds want to see Kwame + Rad for Wallace.

Wallace teaming up with Kobe, Odom, Farmar/Fisher and Bynum (when he gets back) would be a nice lineup.

ben wallace has been atroicious, even coldfish said so.

I think Ben Wallace would be much better on a team where they are playing as a team for a championship, not for contracts.

But, just my opinion. I'm not a Laker fan, thus I cannot speak for ya. 8)

wallace next to bynum would not be a good lineup. all of wallace's strengths would get diminished while his weaknesses would get magnified. wallace's rebounding and shot blocking take a back seat to bynum's superior rebounding/shot blocking while wallace's inability to spread the floor for a low post center would get completely exploited.

I'm wondering about Patrick O'Bryant's availability. He's never had the opportunity on the Warriors.

Crittenton or a protected 1st would certainly get it done.

Of course it would. The Warriors organization has done everything but pack O'Bryant's socks for him. Good luck getting a valued prospect for him.

What value does O'Bryant have to the Warriors? Didn't they opt not to pick up his option? He never got his chance with the Warriors and probably never will. He was picked too early.

It's looking very likely that the Lakers will sign Webber in the next week. That is their way of addressing the need.
