    F, they are both locked into too bad of contracts for at least another year.

    T or F: Mbenga will be on our roster opening night

    False

    I think if he was going to make the team he'd be on it already. Lakers want to give Mihm as much PT as possible.

    T or F

    Lakers send more than one player to the All-Star game this year?

    Wow, I really disagree with that. Mihm is anything but reliable right now.

    To your question, true, they will send 3 Kobe, Pau, Bynum

    T or F: Phil Jackson wont sit on a raised seat this year

    It remains to be seen if Mihm is reliable, but at least he's finally healthy. He's been working hard all summer to get back into game shape and work his way back into the player he was prior to his injury. He'd be a solid rotational player if he can get it together.

    False

    I think PJax will continue to sit on a raised seat and not risk anymore pain.

    T or F

    Sasha improves defensively, similar to the improvements he made offensively last season?

    I NEVER WANT TO SEE THIS AGAIN

    True but only by a little, aside from a few KEY plays I thought he played decent D last year.

    T or F: Coby Karl will be on our opening day roster.

    True. I bet Coby is the best of the rest.

    T or F: Kobe averages 28 ppg ( 28.3 last year)

    False he is getting older and we have decent players around him to score now

    T or F: The Lakers play POR in the first round of the playoffs

    False. He is my favorite for the job, but I think they'll give Rambis a shot

    T or F: Mbenga will still be on the team at the end of the season

    true: we need big bodies for the playoffs, also this will give us a chance to rest bynum and pau in the very last games.

    T or F:
    Bynum becomes a top candidate for MIP?

    PS, isnt rambis just as old as phil, and being doing this job as long as phil has?

    False: He was pretty solid last year, but I don't see enough of an improvement for that to occur though.

    True or False: Kobe retires with more than four rings.

    TRUE! Kobe finishes with 6 rings sparking MJ comparisons forever.

    T or F: Walton gets 15 min/game

    True.

    I know it sounds a tad presumptious but I think he will foul out. Granted summer league last year isn't a great indication of much, but he will be facing Bynum, Pau, AND Lamar. Good luck trying to contain all three coming at you. Oh yeah, and Kobe....

    True or False
    Luke Walton gets traded by the trade deadline.

    110% false...The only way you get out of a contract like that at this time is to get rid of a big time player along with it. Odom (IF he was traded, which he wont) doesn't qualify for that IMO. The injury doesnt help at all either. At least one more full year of Luke.

    T or F: Bynum will get 8+ blocks in one game this season (he had 6 in 30 min last year against the Clippers)

    True. Bynum will prolly see more playing time and IMO 8 blocks ain't that much for him.


    T or F: Trevor Ariza will be our starting SF.

    False - He might end up being the starting SF at some point, but PJax will give Odom first crack at SF to start the season off. I think PJax is playing mind games with Odom with list latest interview suggesting Odom might come off the bench.

    T or F:

    Kobe shoots over 50% from the field next season?

    False, it is all about True Shooting percentage with Kobe. :]

    True or False: Bynum plays in 70 games and most of the post-season?

    False. Bynum plays in all 82 games and all the playoff games :ghoti:

    T or F: Vlad will make a game winning shot with less than 5 seconds
