how do playoff rosters work? do the teams declare before the playoffs the roster that lasts until playoffs are done or do the declare them every series? i'm wondering if that would be an indication of the lakers actually believing bynum will be back this postseason.

Mitch explained it last week on the cannons. he said starting last year teams are required to submit any 12 man roster from their 15 contracted players 1 hour prior to the start of the game. teams are no longer required to be locked with the same 12 guys for the entire post season. hence Coby in civies for game 1 and playing ball in game 2.

That's good to know.

I think we can sign a FA, like say a Karl Malone, if we wanted to, and he could play in our playoffs this year b/c he hasn't been w/ any other team for the season right? As a bonus, I think he's retired w/ us... unless the Jazz got him back again.

Hey Coby Karl is the next Steve Nash!! you guys are not funny man!!!

As two NBA basketball referees walked through the countryside, they noticed some tracks. First said, 'Deer tracks?' Second said 'No, bear tracks.' However, the conversation ended abruptly when a train hit them

UPDATE ON Ariza

http://www.hoopsworld.com/Story.asp?story_id=8426

HOOPSWORLD has learned that Trevor Ariza of the Los Angeles Lakers was given partial clearance to the floor from his broken foot. A source close to the situation says a CT Scan on Friday showed enough improvement that Ariza has been green lit to participate in basketball drills and non-contact practices.

A follow-up scan in two weeks will determine if Ariza is ready for a full return.

While Ariza would obviously have preferred to be cleared completely after today's examination, it may have taken at least a week for the Laker forward to return to the lineup.

Assuming he gets a clean scan (around May 9th), he could be able to get back on the court in a matter of days.

this is what ticks me off about our medical staff. let him heal first. I bet may 9th he wont be ready.
