And we have a 9 game road trip upcoming, with the Suns coming up next... With Bynum we are one of the best three teams in the west, one of the best 4 in the league, without, well, let's just say it's going to be a long 8 weeks. He'll be back by playoffs, I just hope we can get the 5-7 seed with Bynum back we should be able to irritate someone

Congrats StarBucks, we seriously miss Bynum, it's obvious how big of a difference he makes. Like I have said in the past, our great teams are built on a great center, we have the potential, I just hope he gets healthy sooner than expected.

Thanks, I laughed at Amare's avoidance of the Bynum question at half time. He credited the Suns playing better "D", but, didn't say a word about AB not being in. I fell asleep for the 2nd half... I still feel they need to give Turniaf a bulk of the minutes at center.

The guys played the way I want them to play tonight. They shared the ball, they passed the ball to who ever was getting hot and they never panicked when they fell behind. The loss of Bynum, is huge, but it's not the end of the world, and the sooner the team realized that, the better they will be. If the play team basketball, they can compete with most teams in the league, let's be realistic here, there are a few "great teams" and a lot of "decent teams." They should be able to take out the later.
Now for the bad news: Trevor Ariza is out for 8 Weels
Now, I realize most people don't know who Ariza is, but he's on the second team, he scores well, he brings a lot of energy to the court because he's a decent shooter, shares and is just happy to actually be playing. Those types of players can make your team.
Turiaf needs to be starting in place of Kwame, granted, Kwame did have a decent game tonight and made some apology for his recent play in a local paper, but it still doesn't change the fact that Turiaf makes better decisions, has overall better play and isn't the over-rated player that Brown is.
At the end of the night, Lakers fans, enjoy a taco.

Times are rough OC? Not playing great of late... and now down to the Knicks at home going into the 4th. To top it off, about to head on a 9 game road trip. I mean I'm not one to talk, the Suns did lose to the T-Wolves twice this year. But Bynum's injury is really hurting.

And Luke Walton got hurt this game, it's heading the same direction as last year.
