This isn't good. But I think that we can stick it out through the stretch, man up and play without Andrew Bynum. He is a great player on both sideds of the ball, but i think that we are good enough to go without him. The Lakers have gotten used to playing without him. Plus I think that also even without Bynum the Lakers have great team chemistry. Lamar Odom, Pau Gasol, Kobe Bryant, and Derek Fisher work amazing together. Against the Jazz we will be fine without him, because they don't really have an inside presence. Mehmet Okur is a good center, but not like a Pau Gasol, Okur shoots the 3 ball. He comes out for mid-range shots. If we play the Spurs or Hornets we would be good with him. Against the Spurs he could play some solid Defense on Duncan, but I think if we play the Spurs Fisher will have to shut down Tony Paker for us to win that series. Against the Hornets, it is about guard play, we can't let Paul have an excellent game, becasue when he gets going, you can't stop him. I hope the Lakers win the NBA championship, and i think we can. We will be okay without Bynum, even though he's a great contributor.
