Bosh/Gasol would be deadly... but you dont trade a Center that has the potential that Bynum has shown. And we already won a chip with out current group. No reason to change it.

Defense and depth suffer and too much time invested in Bynum to make that trade for a redundant player.

Odom plays the same position as ronron? WTF are you smoking man? Odom plays PF, he's way less efficient as SF. Don't come on our board ask us a question to which we give our answer and then tell us we don't know what's in the Lakers' best interest.

Personally I think Bosh and Gasol's games would be redundant (as J-Far touched on), so what's the point? And as you've said we'd lose depth and with our depth already waning and every top team getting fatter, that's not a chance I'd be willing to take.

Mike Brown came out and said this year they wanted tall wing players to help when LeBron's on the bench. We're talking LeBron who averages 37.5 minutes a game (which is artificially low because of how many 4th quarters he got to sit out). Essentially I'm telling you benches and depth are the difference between teams that do and teams that don't raise a championship banner.

Bynum works with Gasol because he's a true center... Bosh is more of a PF/C like Gasol...

I'd be more inclined to trade Gasol for Bosh... But Gasol is too perfect for our team.

So no...

Odom and change (Farmar/expiring Ammo) for Bosh would be interesting though... I know it's not what you Bosh fans want... But as a Laker fan... I likey...
