like I said only a matter of time before he goes down again.


bynum played 88 games last yr and 73 games the yr before if you include playoffs. ill take that over anything dampier can provide even if he played every single game this season.

Any potential move would only happen, in my opinion, after the trade deadline when the Lakers could simply cut Vujacic and replace him with a free agent center who might provide more insurance than Ratliff in case either Gasol or Bynum went down.

Dampier would be a nice insurance policy. Can't we just buy out Sasha and give Ericka the vets min?

Vujacic is just wasting a roster spot at this point.

I'd rather trade Vujacic for a pick, even if its a second rounder.

Vujacic is just giving us a reason to gawk at his wife at this point.


Fixed.
