I'm not saying that Kobe and Phil should wait for the team to develop. Bynum is tradeable, but he is also going to be a star in the NBA, so if he were to be traded I'd want something of value in return. But why trade him for Kidd whose only going to play another 3 or 4 years and probably not at the level he's been playing this year? The dude is 34. Bynum is 19.

We need both of that.. if we were able to get a top 5 point guard , I would be agree with the fact that a big men is less needed but that's not the case (passing on Kidd ).. we're talking about gettin to the next level, not being a 4th seed.. anyways there is a lot of talks but I'm gonna wait for the Summer to speak more about the situation.. now this is all speculation

In the meantime, why did Mitch extend Sasha and Cook? Why?

I wonder if we could drug Larry Bird and get him to take Odom + Bynum for JO, that would make us contenders instantly, that or a similar trade for KG. The odds of that happening are none and none.In the meantime, we need to try to acquire by trade or free agent signing a decent point. The problem is that management tries to make the home run move, like when they went after Kidd earlier in the season, instead of seeing what smaller moves can be made. A couple of these moves could put us in better position.Getting KG, JO, or Gason would be nice, but it's unrealistic and other teams can put together better packages than we can. Kwame is an expiring K at 8 mil. I don't know what the other expirings are, but those are the trades we should be looking at. Maybe a sign and trade with Luke, something like that.In the meantime, why did Mitch extend Sasha and Cook? Why?

Memphis, Minnesota, or Indiana would JUMP at Odom+Bynum...The problem is, the Lakers would be insane to do that. That wont solve any of our problems. Bynum is a major part of our future and Odom is great all across the board. Our problem is that we need a reliable point guard who can run the offense and distribute the correct way...Our bigs were battered this season, we can either re-sign Mihm, or another valuable PF-C. Trading Odom is not the solution, in fact, I believe that would set us back.

Went after Kidd (which would've done wonders for us) - also no go. I can't hold that against him. What I do hold against him is drafting all these useless players over that years that no other team would want.
