Are there any serviceable big men available through FA or trade? I'm not talking about Gasol, I'm talking about a physical player who can rebound?
i will be happy if phil continues bringing odom from the bench but increasing his minutes stating five Mihm-Powell Gasol Walton (suck) Bryant Fisher
I think Odom has been named the starter already and Gasol will move to Center. This squad made it to the Finals last year, but this is a huge blow to our season. What concerns me the most is the wear and tear this will have on Kobe & Gasol now.
Are you that worried Shape? I've always had confidence in this team, we just choked a Game 4 in the Finals and almost made a comeback in Game 2. I think with Bynum giving us just a few minutes in our rotation by May, we'll be fine.
I'm not worried about Kobe and Gasol. They'll be fine. I forgot about Powell. He has a nice jumper and has a nose for the ball when it comes to rebounding. Mihm gives me no confidence. What would it take to get Brad Miller?
I don't think we need any major changes, Bynum will be back for the postseason. I know this because God told me. Josh Powell looks like a gem. I've been calling for him to get more playing time all season, and whenever he plays, he performs at a high level. Convince Zo out of retirement!
I dunno, maybe we can convince? Honestly I think we're gonna be fine. Powell should play the Ronny Turiaf role, play backup PF and C. We went to the Finals that way, we'll be all right.
