that reminds me of a quote
Quote: | Mikki Moore [unintentionally explaining Detroit's troubles this season]:
"We have to play hard for the full 40 minutes." Informed a game goes for 48 minutes: "48? Oh, that's right. 12-minute quarters." |

Yeah, I want to see Da Ocho and other guys talk about how this performance isn't even "dominant" :roll:
Bynum is the real deal. He only needs some time. He has all the tools and will develop the skills because he works very hard and wants to be an All-Star. At 18, he has another 5 years of hard work ahead of him - but if he puts in he will be a remarkable player. |

Wished Washington would have played Ramos but I don't think it would have mattered. Andrew killed him last game anyway.
All I know is anyone that says Bynum hasn't improved from last season is a fool. Last years SPL we were celebrating 10 & 10 performances from him. Expecting him to score 20 plus on anyone was a giant stretch. I definately think he will be ready for 15 minutes per game this coming season. He's right on track developing in my opinion. He's still got a long way to go before he is a starter but he should be able to hold his own against backup 5's in the league.
I bet this was a exciting game to watch. Andrew having to even try guarding a versatile big like Blatche would be interesting.

They listed him at center, but he really played point forward, he did not guard Bynum for any significant time. The dude handles the ball and shoots threes. Didn't display much of a post game. |

Think we should try to pick up Blatche after the summer if his contract is up. The guy would do real good in the tri. Wouldn't mind seeing him and Bynum grow up together on the Lakers. |

16 and 11 for Farmar, hopefully he'll make me change my mind about him. |
Well, we have to remember that in the last game, he had played 6 games in 8 days. When you then consider all that muscle and growth just since last year, that's a lot of weight he's not used to carrying around, and it's going to cause him to be tired.
He's clearly not tired today. I hope he's dominant tomorrow.
25pts. 11rbds. 2 blks. 3 assts. 2 stls. That's a NICE day at the office. |

Well then. Blatche must be KG after his 38 pt, 12 rebound effort the other day, huh?
Bynum is good. He'll be a starter in the league. He'll be lucky to see an all-star game. _________________ Stephon Marbury on Kobe: "He's the only person on 'dis earth that can do 'dat.

Bynum...Farmar...Green...
It looks like Pinnock had his usual solid game. With Green having 2 standout performances in a row, it's obvious that he's not willing to give up his roster spot just yet. It'll be an interesting battle between Green and Pinnock (and Profit if he's healthy) when training camp rolls around. |

Anyone remember me SCREAMING for LA to draft Bynum at 10, Blatche at 17? (assuming we were getting the 17 in the Bender deal)

If Bynum can eventually put up a consistent 15/12/2 effort every night, that'll be more than enough. |

You don't know how good Blatche will be yet. Ask the Wiz fans if they'll trade Blatche for anyone not named Kobe, and I bet they'll say no. They are just as high on Blatche, as we are on Bynum. |

Any word on Farmar? Were most of his assists to Bynum? |

A handful of them were. He looks for 17, that's for sure. |

16 and 11. We'll have to wait for the rest of the LGers to get back home to get a better picture of how everyone played. |

remember blatche did that in 44 minutes
he also had 16 FT attempts
he also took 6 3pt attempts. he made one. a center should not be shooting threes.
also his team lost.
P.S. it was against the maverics worse summer league team. they sent their good players to vegas |

We could have gotten him instead of Wafer too in the 2nd round. |

Green's looking solid and he's young, he has much more upside than Profit. Green is taller than Pinnock, this give's him the edge. Pinnock can be stashed in Europe until Sasha comes off the books. |

One thing most folks say after watching Blatche is that he's no center. |

I know the Lakers' coaching staff is enamored with Green, so I wouldn't be surprised if they stuck Pinnock in Europe for a year and brought him back in 07/08. |

The main thing is they keep him, unless something better comes up. |

I love this Farmar-Bynum duo. It sounds very promising for the lakers future. Green had a great game too. Somehow, he is a great rebounder. |
