If Bynum comes back next year, what do you expect out of him

If you haven't heard Andrew Bynum has recently went under the knife again and is expected to be fully recovered by training camp. When he comes back what do you think he will bring to the team? I personally see him coming back strong. I think that he will be hungrey to play again and will work hard in the off season. He will probably have some conditioning issues though. I see him starting off coming off the bench playing about 10-15 minutes a game. Then about 20 games in getting back in the starting lineup.
 
I feel it will be like that all though I say the early bench minutes go from 15-20. Once he gets about 10-12 games in it could be interesting. I believe the Lakers signed Walton to a short term contract so you could have a frontcourt of Odom, Bynum and Gasol. I have a feeling Walton may get dealt if he struggles before the next season's trade deadline. Only reason for any possible trades before or during the draft would be because the Lakers don't have a 1st round pick. That pick went to Memphis in the Gasol deal.

im seeing a 3 7 foot+ front court, pretty beastly if you ask me then throw in the MVP?

only the doctor could beat em next year!
 
to be honest, I have no idea how the lakers are going to distribute minutes to the players lol
Odom will be starting at SF spot and replace Radmanovich which wouldn't be a big problem. But overall, if we do get everyone back healthy for the next season, the roster is way too packed.

C: Bynum, Gasol, Mihm
PF: Gasol, Odom, Turiaf
SF: Odom, Walton, Radmanovich, Ariza, Coby Karl
SG: Kobe, Vujacic
PG: Fisher, Farmar

We need to trade away Radmanovich.
He has been a disappointment for the team except when he lighted up 3 pointers which he displaeyed few times during the year.
Hopefully we can get another PG just in case one goes down with injury.
Vujacic can also play PG so wouldnt be a huge problem.

And for Bynum, I do expect him to make the starting lineup 10 games into the season and make a huge impact on the team.
He can guard the rim and get rebounds that will **** teams like Utah and San Antonio.
Duncan had a problem with Bynum in one game and with Bynum, Utah won't get 20 offensive rebounds.

Conclusion: If Odom can adjust to SF comfortably, lakers will be invincible. :)
 
Kobe, I really think the Lakers are loaded in pretty much each spot. They have great players at all positions. I think they have been drafting better in the last couple years then the vast majority of teams. Especially seeing they don't have lottery picks like some other teams. These are the only players on the lakers that I see tradeable Radmanovich, Ariza, Coby Karl, Mihm.
