Sessions, Williams, Foye and Duhan are bad shooters. What you guys need is kirk hinrich. Hinrich and Noah for Bynum.

Bynum would be good for you guys. Hes been on his slump since Gasols return and to me the Gasol Bynum experiment just doesn't work. I feel like it is hurting Bynum's development and the Lakers aren't getting the most out of LO/Gasol/Bynum. Its weird how Gasol is out so LO finally gets some good play time and he is showing good things. Bynum doesn't have to share space with Gasol and he is doing much better. Noah and Hirnich would be great off the bench if Phil decided to do so. Our bench needs some change and those 2 would be an awesome addition. I don't see Phil benching Fisher.

I just don't know if I would do Hinrich and Noah for Bynum though

That's what sucks.

Pau + Odom has proven to be dangerous (2 Finals, 1 Ring) when Bynum is out.

Bynum + Odom, when Pau is out, works well and both guys step up, Bynum becomes a dbl/dbl machine and LO grabs 15+ rebs a game.

With all 3, seems like only 1 ever has a good game. Rarely 2. Never all 3.

With Pau's recent extension thru 2014, and LO through 2012 with TO for '13, I am in the 'move Bynum while the league thinks he is good' camp - but only for a good return.

I would only do CHI for Hinrich, Noah, Salmons for Bynum, Ammo, Sasha. I already know what boogydown, clifflevingston, coldfish, all those dudes negative reply to that offer would be.

I say let Bynum get his shine on by bringing Gasol off the bench (ala Kevin McHale), win a ring with Bynum doing his 17/10 thing, then sell high this summer.

He just might bring us the best PG in the league ... LBJ.

If Bynum can prove to NBA executives that he is a legitimate 20/10 center we should not even be entertaining trades like Hinrich/Noah. If Bynum can sell the league that he is a potential franchise-type player he is worth far more than a couple of role players.

You only trade Bynum for a star PG/quarterback ... LBJ, Paul, D.Williams, Roy, maybe Joe Johnson. At this point I wouldn't even trade him for Billups ... I think he can get us more than even Billups.

The Lakers just need someone that could shoot and defend point guards. Of the players that may be available, I would put Hinrich and Duhon at the top of the list.

Even if we were to get a new better pg it woulden't make a differnce fisher would still be starting and getting aleast half the mins..i dont think phil has the courage to go up to fisher and tell him hay ur ging to be coming off the bench and ur minutes are going to decrease until fisher realizes how bad he is and how much hes hurting the team nothing will change.
