but we won't have that Kobe for long. It maybe time to plan for the future before it's too late

i think I future has been resigned to Gasol and Bynum anything else is just icing. Unless some top draft pick lands in our laps. Somewhere down the line we steal DWillams or CPaul, thats the future we are looking at.

I would, IF 09 WCF has shown anything its that Melo IF focused is a beast defensively as well, as he gave Bryant some problems when he was trying to post up and he got pretty physical with him. But on the other end when Melo was beasting NO one on our team could handle him even Kobe got punked in paint by Melo. Nene replaces Bynum offense with ease and it wasn't like Bynum was some shot blocking beast, but I dont think Den would do that deal.

Maybe i'm being bias because Melo is my second favorite player but ima trust the future of this franchise on him over Bynum. Focused Melo is a hell of a beast and you know that when you have a teammate named Kobe Bryant and you're being coach by Zen Master, you should have you're focus on. :nod:



Back to REALITY .. Denver won't even agree on this trade. :thumbsup:

First of all. Hell no.

I just love trades that have the Lakes sending 4 players and picks and only getting 2 players in return. That just shows this trade is coming from a person who just wants to rip off the Lakers. That kind of person is not a Lakers fan.

In a heartbeat. But I think a better deal would be the following.

Lakers trade: Bynum + Brown + Vujacic + 2 Future first round picks

Nuggets trade: Anderson + Melo

Fisher.Blake
Kobe.Barnes
Melo.Artest
Odom.(Melo.Artest)
Gasol.Birdman

Heat ain't got nothin on me.

Front court decimated.

And to the original trade. Those salaries don't really come close.

I'd do it near the deadline depending on how the season's looking, if they take luke and give back afflalo.

Was worth a second look, but ultimately, no I wouldn't do it.
