at any rate, i don't think jerry wants to hit the 90 million mark so something's got to give. the team doesn't even gross more than $170 million a year i don' tthink.

Kobe is not going to turn down another Max Deal for 100 Million.
Bynum's "Contract" is done after next year, but the Lakers are guaranteed to hold on to him until 09-10 either by him agreeing to the qualifying deal, or by us match any offer he receives. (Obviously, we could also not match that deal. But that isn't happening.) We could also negotiate a new deal with him at this time.
Once again, unless Odom take a big pay cut. It's more than likely going to be either/or for Bynum and Odom. Pick one. And Buss, is going to pick the 22 year old over the 30 year old.

If Bynum had torn his ACL or MCL or something requiring major major surgery than yes. (That would have been a second time) I would without a doubt agree with you.
But it's a knee injury, he hasn't had surgery. Give him some time to get back into basketball forum. And he will be good to go.

Re: Would You Trade Bynum Now For Michael Beasley Or Brook Lopez?
According to the article on the other thread this is the same knee he had surgery on when he was 12 by the same doctor he is seeing for the 2nd opinion

Re: Would You Trade Bynum Now For Michael Beasley Or Brook Lopez?
Nope wrong my friend. Bynum hurt his left knee this year. The doctor performed surgery on Bynums RIGHT knee when Andrew was 12.

He reached me over text a few days ago and said hes still gathering all the footage. I guess hes splicing together different angles to give it a "professional" feel.

Re: Would You Trade Bynum Now For Michael Beasley Or Brook Lopez?
Im just not willing to give up on Bynum. Not for a second. He's young. If he has to take a full year off next season, so be it, no problems at all, get well young fella. We've all seen how effective the kid is, his defense, his overall package is simply special, we've never had a guy like that since well ironically his mentor, Kareem.

Re: Would You Trade Bynum Now For Michael Beasley Or Brook Lopez?
No, everyone already knows the type of player Bynum is. The Lakers without Bynum is already a championship contender (they CAN turn the defense on when they want), and adding even a poor man's Bynum that can at least clog the lane and challenge shots defensively will push the Lakers over the top.

Re: Would You Trade Bynum Now For Michael Beasley Or Brook Lopez?
Unless Andrew Bynum is damaged goods, i wouldn't trade him for NO NBA player not named Dwight Howard.
Simple as that.
No D-Wade, no LBJ, no nothing.
If Bynum is healthy next year and continues to develop, the core of Kobe/Odom/Pau/Bynum should contend for the championship for the next 5 years or so.
And after Kobe retires, Bynum should be a franchise center to long our hopes for 10 years or so...
