I want Bynum on this team.
And it's Brook Lopez, not Brock.

There's also a good chance Beasley and Lopez could suck.

Re: Would You Trade Bynum Now For Michael Beasley Or Brook Lopez?
He was averaging 17/11 for the 3 weeks just prior to his injury, with his isolation scores on the block increasing at an ever higher rate week-by-week. He was also turning into a defensive beast without fouling. Basically he was breaking out into a franchise C. Do I trade that for anyone in this draft? Hell no, unless his knee is broke.

Re: Would You Trade Bynum Now For Michael Beasley Or Brook Lopez?
To add to the posts above, I don't want a ****ing big man from Stanford. No offense but a stiff like that should not be a top 5 pick.

Not a lakers fan but they would be stupid too. Bynum will be a franchise center for years to come as long as he recovers from the injury fine.

Re: Would You Trade Bynum Now For Michael Beasley Or Brook Lopez?
call me crazy, but it might have to happen.
andrew is due for a contract extension and the lakers are already way over the cap... so if they get a rookie and sign him to 5 years (at rookie price), it would be better for the team cap wise. we could take the money we'd save and re-sign LO to maybe 11-12 million a year.
IF it has to happen, i would say make the team take a few of our bad contracts (luke or vladi), and give us one of those young prospects.

Re: Would You Trade Bynum Now For Michael Beasley Or Brook Lopez?
i really wanna see andrew play with the guys... if he can get to a point where he's averaging 18/11/2.5 and really clog the paint for us, i'd rather let LO go. but as of now, we don't know if he can flourish with pau/kobe.
don't get me wrong, i think LO is a very important component to our team, but as of now we already have 3 small forwards OTHER than LO.
actually, if mitch can somehow find a way to get rid of vladi (he's easier to get rid of than luke i think), then we might be able to keep drew.
