There is a slight possibility shed is here to spell Bynum 5-10 min a game

Or McBob will start. Lakers have shown they play better with a Bynum + McBob combo rather than a Bynum + Murphy combo. If Pau is gone, we gotta get a stud at PG or nice pieces at PG and SF, no matter how unrealistic it may seem at this point.

this is possible, but not sure if i agree that Bynum plays better with McRoberts than with Murphy?? For a start, Murphy has actually been playing with Bynum lately on the second unit and they have been going ok...McRoberts has even been on the floor in any serious manner in recent memory...?

i know where you are coming from and agree that McRoberts is probably a better help defensive player than Murphy (or even better on D all-round), but stats don't always show the full picture either....

Yes, I am, Jim is in charge now, all moves are made with his approval. If he makes a good one he'll get credit, if he does stuff like this, he gets laughed at, only fair. For example, Janis Carr just tweeted

Rasheed Wallace hasn't played since he retired in 2010, and Buss thinks 'Sheed is better than keeping Gasol?.

True, true...

They are bringing in Jon Barry to talk about this on the next segment... like he would know insider info or something.

The Original 81 wrote:^ You would think he'd want to come here considering all of the great centers we've had. Take over after Kobe retires, be the man in LA. But no, he'd rather go play for New York's version of the Clippers.

I just don't think Dwight has 'it', and I'd be more than satisfied with Drew going forward.

Shooting:

1. While Kidd has played 38% more minutes than Nash, Kidd has only hit 14% more three pointers.

2. In terms of True Shooting % (which is a measure of shooting efficiency that takes into account FTs, 2 pt FGs, and 3pt FGs), Nash is 1st among active players and 11th all time. With Effective FG % (which adjusts for the fact that 3-pointers a worth more than 2′s and FTs), Nash is 4th among active players and 16th all time. Kidd isn’t ranked in the TOP 50 among active players in either category.

Scoring:

1. Per 36 minutes, Nash averages 16.9 points and Kidd averages 13.0.

2. Nash averages .468 points per minute, Kidd averages .362 points per minute. In other words, Nash has average 29.3% more points per minute than Kidd.

Passing:

1. Per 36 minutes, Nash averages 9.7 assists and Kidd averages 8.9 assists.

2. In terms of assist percentage (the percent of his team’s assists a player earns while he is on the floor), Nash is 4th in NBA history at 40.95% while Kidd is 7th at 39.8%.
