Very generous indeed. Also leaves you with a very young/inexperienced front court. Tyrus & Noah manning the ship down low, don't think they're ready yet.

Radmanovic at center? No thanks, I'd rather go with the kid. Radman is a jumpshooting PF.

MLE starting at center? Maybe. Darko would work, and would sort of be the yin to Noah's yang. Still think your front court is questionable, MLE or not.

The Lakers would look good.


That's an odd mix, Nas. You're either rebuilding or you're not. That team doesn't win the West, and Wallace & Odom likely won't be around when Deng, Gordon, Bynum, etc, enter their primes. If they move Kobe, they're probably going to look to move Odom as well. I would anyway, if I were Mitch Kupcakes.

According to Sam Smith they did, I never heard or read Pax acknowledge that.

And I'm with you, giving up Deng & Gordon together is a tall order. If we had come out of the draft with Jeff Green, my stance might be different.

Yep, that's Sam Smith's take, which I have my doubts about, and I don't believe the Bulls ever made an offer Kobe Bryant. Paxson isn't going to gut this team, and I doubt the Lakers are even listening to offers for him.

I don't buy it for a second. No way Pax blows up the core for Kobe.

Besides, it's smarter to wait until the end of the summer. If Kobe is still threatening to hold out, then maybe his value decreases.
