Then why don't the front office consider packaging Bynum+WorldPeace+Mav's pick? Orlando could do with that.

noone wants Ron's contract...just including him might kill a deal

the only thing we can hope for is Dwight gets impatient and Drew goes on beast mode and Orlando get's tempted to make a swap with just Drew and fillers

What about Puke Walton?

Ah, I see then. I checked up on it. 7mill with an option next year. Probably not the best to have.

What is so bad about Hedo's contract then? I tried checking up on it but rotoworld just lists him as FA.

lol, I swear he is living off his father's name. I don't know anyone who would want him. Bobcats probably wouldn't even take him.

In an interview with Yahoo! Sports, Kobe Bryant said he wants to stay with the Lakers and intends to finish his career with them.

“I don’t have any feeling about [leaving] whatsoever,” Bryant said, addressing speculation that he might request a trade. “I’ve been here for 16 years. I’m going to up and leave now?”

Bryant also talked about his surgically repaired knee, declaring himself healthy after a medical procedure last summer in Germany.

“I’m not a big medicine, techie guy,” Bryant said. “But I know my knee feels 90 percent better. My understanding was that the guy who invented it … [Germany] is where he’s from and where his home base is. So I didn’t want to go someplace else where he had to move his equipment. If I am going to do it, I want to do it right and do it in the place where he is most comfortable doing it.

“I can run. I can jump. I can run the track. I can lift weights the way I want to lift weights. I can practice every day. Those are things I couldn’t do last year.”

Even if you wanted to leave the team at this point, it'd would be hard for other teams to take you without empty out their whole rosters first.

I'm watching Clips vs Lakers right now and.........Kobe looks like he got that spring back in his step.
Also DeAndre Jordan is a beast, if he ever develops a decent elbow jumper or Hook shot from the post he will be hall of fame.

Mcroberts looks decent.

The bad news for Lakers fans, Jordan is making Bynum and Gasol look bad.
I don't think Orlando is going to want to make that trade anytime soon.

Good, I wouldnt ever want to give up Bynum/Gasol for Howard.
