Lakers aren't getting anyone
I think its clear at this point. Jim loves bynum too much, mitch loves pau too much. FA's can't play here because we don't have money.
Alright. Lakers next year, 6th seed? 7th? Taking predictions. I hope we get out of the 1st round.

Re: Lakers aren't getting anyone
Mitch tried to trade Gasol last summer. If he's not traded before training camp, it's because there weren't any legitimate offers. I hate to say it, but the market for an old, overpaid power forward who has played like shit for two straight playoff runs is rather low.

They will continue to fade into irrelevancy if they don't make some kind of move. Last season was proof that just Bryant, Bynum and Gasol alone won't get you very far. Are they really going to waste Kobe's possible last chances at a title with this unsuccessful formula? Doubt it.

Sadly, I agree with you. Man, what do you think is going through Kobe's head?

I'm not trying to hate or anything but I do think this line of thinking is funny coming from a Spurs fan.

And everything they've done since that is proof that it ruined them. They had their swan song. Its over man. It scared them into being very cautious, they don't go for home run anymore, they stand on the sideline. 12 mid night doesn't matter we have no cap space, it HAS to be a bynum or pau trade.

Except we should be willing to trade him for lesser value. We LOSE with pau bynum kobe no bench or pg. How about getting a mediocre pg and bench? Lets expect more from bynum. Lets make it so that kobe can be rested and ask him to be clutch in the 4th but RESTED not after playing 40 min. Decent pg and athletic bigs. Lets try it. Why can't we get josh smith? Beasley and derrick williams? Why not trade bynum for something, anything and ask pau to see if he still has it?
The lakers have been scared into sticking with something that doesn't work 100% because its risky to try something that has a 50% chance of working.

I'd rather trade Bynum. I know Gasol is the older player and he's had two disappointing playoff runs, but we've seen how good he can be. And anyway, were 3-4 years from Kobe's retirement... and given what we've seen from Bynum he's not going to be our next franchise player, either because he's not good enough or he can't stay healthy. I want to see us trade Bynum and see if Kobe and Gasol can lead us to another 'ship before they retire.

I like that idea. I'd rather start with NOTHING once kobe is done and use the lead the lakers back to glory selling point to lure whoever the best player at the time is here in free agency.
Bynum should be able to net you 3 rotational players. ANYTHING is better than watching the same team again.

I hope you're right. I just don't think they have the stones to blow this team up. I think it would have happened already.

they do have the stones to do it...but they are not going to give away their players...like pau for Scola/lowry or Pay for Derrick Williams
heck the lakers rejected already Pau for Josh smith....

Re: Lakers aren't getting anyone
