    If Bynum is healthy, which I think he will be then yes TRUE. He has Pau and Lamar to compete with, but Bynum is much more aggresive when it comes to rebounding.

    True or False.

    Sun Yue cracks the 15 man roster.

    True..as in he will play some games this year for the Lakers but will spend most of his time in the D League.

    T or F: Jordan Farmar will have the starting PG role by the beginning of the playoffs.

    False

    I don't have that much faith in Jordan becoming an everyday starter next year. Derek will have that role until his contract runs out IMO. Plus, I like Jordan bringing us a spark off the bench, something Derek won't be able to provide us.

    True or False

    Lamar Odom will come off the bench

    False.

    As much as I hope he will be that good, I feel that by the end of the regular season, going into the playoffs. Derek's experience, poise, and leadership is invaluable in the starting lineup

    True or False.

    Lamar Odom will start the season on the bench.

    We said the same stuff lol

    False.

    I think that he'll START the season as a starter, but eventually will be better off the bench.

    True or False.

    Luke Walton has a season like that one year where he was damn solid as a playmaker and shooter.

    .

    True...IMO the surgery will help his shot dramatically...He wasnt that bad last year, everybody was just focused on him last year.

    T or F: Andrew Bynum will lead the league in FG% (if not who?)

    False

    I don't really see it happening. Maybe top 5 or so, but I doubt he will lead the league. My guess is maybe Dwight Howard or Yao Ming?

    True or false:

    Lakers made another trade before the trade deadline (could be a minor trade)

    False...If there was I believe it would involve LO but I really dont see that happening anymore with what's out there for him

    Rockets, Hornets, Celtics will compete for that spot.

    True, because of skill and Luke having nagging injuries

    TorF: Phil Jackson will sign an extension to coach past the 09-10 season

    I want to say True, but I think Phil will be done once his current contract runs up.

    True or False: The Lakers crack 70 wins next year?

    12 losses? Eh, sorry but I don't see it happening. 60 wins sounds good though.

    True or false:

    This is Lamar Odom's last season as a Laker.

    I'll say 50/50 on that one. It really depends in my book. First, how well does he play, and second, how much of a paycut is he willing to take? If he plays well and we win a title with him on the team, I don't know if the FO will be willing to tamper with a winning formula. Also...how much money will he want? Obviously we'll have to bring back Bynum, and that's going to be a large chunk of payroll, and can't Kobe opt out this year as well? So there's a lot of factors that go in to that, so I'm really 50/50 on it.

    True or False: Kobe wins his 2nd MVP

    True

    I think the Lakers come out of the West as the #1 seed and Kobe will get his just due again. His biggest threat will be Chris Paul and my darkhorse pick Amare.

    T or F

    Lakers find someone to take Luke Walton or Radman via trade?

    Jordan Farmar
