What a game!!

Dwight, Chandler, Noah, Lopez, Cousins and Bynum when healthy. I'd be fine with putting Asik anywhere after those six.

I really don't care for Lopez's mediocre rebounding. I think I'd take Omer, in that one. Otherwise, I agree with your list. Bynum could be done, so I don't know if that name is relevant anymore. Varejoa is technically better but can't stay healthy and he's another hybrid type, is he not?. Hibbert and Sanders have more upside, but one has had one good season and the other has to maintain what he's doing now in his breakout season.

If Bogut could stay healthy, I'd consider him as well, but at the same time we're talking about Omer, a player who's stayed on the floor and stayed consistent, versus several players who can't stay healthy and some who struggle with consistency. You know what Omer is going to do every night. Now and then he surprises you with a high point total, but that type of inconsistency doesn't harm the team.

It's solid every night (and healthy) versus players with larger upsides who struggle with either health or consistency.

I hear you. I love Asik. I was pretty upset when he left Chicago... especially considering the fact that we couldn't get anything for him. There's no way we could have kept both Asik and Taj though.

 

[elcheato]

I forgot about Sanders, definitely better.

 

[Big Bid'Ness]

Can Pekovic or maybe Vucevic get some love lol.

Wait wut? You would take Asik over Lopez? Hahhahaha

If anyone is still wondering why the Lakers aren't that good of a team, just take a look at their box score last night.

Kobe and Nash took a combined 46 shots. Howard and Gasol took a combined 16 shots. Jodie Meeks took 14 shots in 24 minutes while Howard and Gasol took 16 in a combined 60 minures.

I'm still fearful of what they could do come playoff time. They have a combo at 4-5 that's even better than the Gasol/ZBo combo that destroyed San Antonio a couple of years ago.

Unfortunately for LAL, Mike D'Antoni is nowhere near the coach that Lionel Hollins is. That is why they'd lose to San Antonio in a 1st round series.

shit. Double post

They are 1 game away from dat 9 spot.
You never know how Lakers will perform, really inconsistent.

They won't do anything. I'd take Gasol and ZBo over Gasol and Dwight any day of the week.

They're just a horrible defensive team.
