Bynum would love to play under D'Antoni, shoot 3s all day no conscious.

It would be pointless to bring in Hedo. The Lakers need to continue to develop Ryan Kelly because I think he can contribute to our bench in the future. He has some potential on defense and has a nice shooting stroke.

I think this means they're saving money to get closer to tax threshold (with a trade or two), not that they're signing another FA....

Kaman didn't play last night and we only have 9 available players...

I think there's a trade in the works and either Kaman or Pau are gone.

Or we will just stand pat as usually :lol:. I predict we do nothing and lose Kaman, Pau, and J. Hill in free agency for nothing.

I don't think standing pat in this situation is an option... We need to get better or get cheaper or both...

I think our options are waive Nash, trade Pau, or trade Kaman... Kaman probably traded for a pick which given our lack of warm bodies, probably isn't an option... Pau traded for some "asset," expiring contract(s) and/or a pick...

I think we almost have to trade Pau if possible.
