    Bringing shot-blocking and perimeter shooting off the bench at the backup 4? I like it.

    I am with you on that. The one thing you want your second unit to do is hustle. He could be a rich mans version of the Birdman.

    He's getting great weather today. But, it's still no San Diego.

    And, we'll get to the free throw line more.

    We'll get 4 more free throw attempts per game now that Blake is gone than we did the games that Blake started the last 2 years.

    Those 4 extra free throws are going to be the difference between winning and losing a lot of games.

    We're instantly a .650 team now.

    Even at 36/37 years old? You'd have to think as he gets older he would accept a lesser role.

    He never did anything to lose your faith. That's all in your head.

    The dude's gonna be 36 next month... do you think he'd possibly settle for 20ish minutes a game (with no injuries) on a team that's got a chance to challenge for a title?

    He's played over 30mpg each of the last seven seasons (including this one) so... maybe he wouldn't, in spite of his advancing age. (And, yes, he's a bit younger than I am... haha.)

    I heard Bynum was going to start not caring for the Lakers....


    Oh wait, he started that right after he signed his big contract. My bad.

    Hopefully the announcers won't get confused now. Marcus gives it to LaMarcus, who feeds it back to Marcus, who then gives back the ball to LaMarcus, who hits the shot.

    Since Camby just arrived from the Clips, we can call him LA Marcus.

    I think the play of Cunningham is what really made Outlaw expendable.
