Bynum is not ready to be a full time starter at all. Everytime we get some momentum he gives up a big rebound. You could see the frustrating on Lamar's face. Right now anyone and everyone is able to either back Bynum down in the paint,or box him out pretty easy.
He is kinda starting to look like he did in the Summer League. We are way to soft on the inside right now. _________________ It's Showtiiiime

I agree, Bynum is just not ready as much as I like the kid. He is just not ready to be a starter on a playoff team, he's not there yet. I have no doubts he will get there, but right now he is not ready. We need Kwame for his defense alone, and tough play in the paint.

It's going to take 4-5 yrs IMHO to become we hope a 20/10 player. Can the Lakers & Kobe afford to wait that long?
They can't afford to not trade Kwame for Kidd. What keeps them from also trading for a center. Magloire and Mohamed and others are out there. Take Jason Collins with Kidd. If Buss doesn't want to pay the luxury tax, he can continue to have a mediocre team. I am not saying Collins is great, but at least he isn't hurt. I don;t trust Kwame and I know this injury is legit, but he doesn;t have much heart any way.
We do indeed need rebounding, but the reason we lost this game was TURNOVERS. And Jason Kidd would definitely take care of the ball. We need to get that ball out of Kobe Bryants hands if he isn't going to shoot it. I know he's taken alot of strides to being a passer, but he gets double teamed no matter what, so its that much harder for him.

oh yea dude. Its not like our PG Smush is possibly the worst starting PG in NBA history, will cakethrower rots away on the bench with some injury, when he will never be more than a 5point and 5 rebound player anyway.

Did anyone take notice how Snow's dribble penetration killed the Lakers tonight? Now imagine Kidd doing that for the Lakers, and dishing to Kobe, LO, etc. Isn't that a nice image? _________________ RIP mom. 11-21-1933 to 6-14-2023.

I think Kwame is done for the season anyway... it seems so similar to Mihm's injury last year.
There are so many big men out there if the Lakers do trade for Kidd. They can sign Mo Taylor to replace B. Cook, activate B. Shaw to replace Aaron McKie, and what's his name will replace Kwame as Bynum's backup.

Yeah, cause we didn't miss Kwame one bit in this game tonight. I'm suprised the Cav's frontline is still able to walk after that beating that Ronny and Bynum gave them. :roll: _________________ [Insert ignorant or naive statement from poster here.]
