you can't just tell me which team? i can keep a secret you know


lol, I see your point. I'm just trying to say there are some GM's out there that make some "questionable" moves to say the least. (See Caron Butler for Kwame Brown). You know they are out there, David Kahn for one.

Or if you prefer I can say that my cousin's barber's baby momma's uncle in law works as a janitor at organization X and told me its true. :wink:

I say trade Bynum for a young servicable defensive-minded center AND a young combo guard that can back up Kobe and also play the less demanding trianglePG. I know trading Bynum doesn't necessarily help of get rid of an old player, but it would help us bring in 2 or possibly 3 young players and maybe Kobe's eventual replacement. Some possibilities for Bynum include:
Biedrins+Ellis
Marc+OJ


Grizz wouldn't be interested, but that would be one heck of a deal for the Lakers.
much respect to the 2011-2012 champions, Miami Heat, well deserved

If they would carry 15 they could develop youth - but its clear that's not happening.

Ian Mahinmi could be a young big to take a look at.

The only Old player the Lakers have is Fisher. The Lakers age is perfect for winning rings yet we do need 2 infuse the roster with younger players in the comming seasons our last draft pick owed is now gone so from now on we will prob keep our draft picks. The Lakers are in Win now mode so it is very easy for the Lakers to just pick up ring chase vets ala tmac iversion and stuff like that. Right now dont worry about age leave to for teams looking at the futur like thunder only thing u should care about is production.

Return to Los Angeles Lakers
