If the lakers win the title this year, what impact would andrew bynum have for next year?

first of all, if the lakers win it all, would andrew bynum recieve a championship ring? in other words, do players on the injured reserve list get a ring?

now if the lakers win it all, what impact would andrew have on the team? would he mess up the chemistry or would the team likely win another title? would they be a dynasty?

I think everyone gets a ring. Executives, coaching staff, players. Anyone who contributed and is still on the roster. Even Chris Mihm!

Next year or the year after they could be challenging the record for wins. With four legitimate All-Stars (Kobe, Odom, and Pau have been and Andrew could be), great role players (Fisher, Walton, Turiaf, Farmar, Sasha) they have all the right pieces. Even if Fisher starts to show his age Farmar is coming along fine and could start and Fisher could be the deep threat (kind of like Kerr and Paxson). This team is pretty young as well.

I think Andrew just gives Phil more options on how he'd like to play. He can go big with Pau, Odom, and Bynum, or run a bit with Farmar, Sasha, Odom, Bryant, and Walton. He could basically match up with any defense thrown at him or send out the right type of defense for any team.

And besides being young, they've all got experience. Three years in a row in the playoffs. And look at how many of them have started games this season: Bryant, Bynum, Odom, Gasol, Fisher, Ariza, Turiaf, Walton, Radmonovic, and even Mihm.

Things look good for years to come!

What up MJ,

Andrew Bynum would only make the Lakers better. Some of the Lakers struggle against teams like the Jazz, Spurs, Celtics (very defensive oriented rough teams) is rebounding- so Bynum would help the Lakers rebounding and blocking shots.

The Chemistry shouldn't be an issue because the Center is th easiest role to play in the triangle--and Bynum was leading the league in field goal .pctg before he went down- so he just picks up where he left off- and you add Pau to the mix at Pf, moving Lamar down to SF, three guys 6 foot 10 and above, that can help them really defend the paint, with Kobe and Fish on the perimeter (a pretty good defensive team- with incredible offensive fire power).

You also have a great bench.

If there are any chemistry issues they could always bring Bynum off the bench or imagine what they could get if they decided to trade him (they won't but just saying-- it's a good problem to have- worrying if adding Bynum would hurt chemistry). i think him and Ariza can only help the team and if the Lakers are coming off a ring- i think you see the potential of another dynasty in the making.

If they win it all Andrew, and Trevor Ariza will get rings, they were both vital parts of the team when they were in there....

(whats even funnier is Mbenga and Newble getting rings)

Next year with Bynum and Ariza back the Lakers if they are defending champs will be on the cusp of a dynasty, it could totally happen.....

They will have a whole off season to work things out, Lamar will kill at SF, Pau will be a hell of a PF, with the bench and everything else going the Lakers could win 65+ games next year, barring injury.

C-Bynum/Mihm/Mbenga (probably get rid of Mbenga)

PF-Pau/Turiaf/Radmanovic

SF-Lamar/Ariza/Walton/Newble(probably get rid of Newble)

SG-Kobe/Sasha/Coby

PG-Fisher/Farmar

That is one HELL OF A LINEUP!!!!!
Andrew Bynum and the rest of the injured players will definitely get their rings!

Now if the Lakers win it all, next year they will win another championship! I don't believe he will mess up the chemistry as the play will still be made to Kobe and its up to him whether he pass it up to the finess player Gasol or the power one, Bynum. At least now, he have options.

I think they'll definitely be a dynasty. If Kobe wins the championship this year, I think he can still win 2 or more even 3 more! If the latter, no doubt who's the greatest NBA player eh? Kobe %26gt; Jordan.
Anyone remember how that worked out for Duncan and Robinson in San Antonio (champs in '99 and '03, before D Rob retired)??

And they're playing styles are very similar, with Bynum being every bit of the beast that Robinson was in his prime, and Gasol being a somewhat less physical but more offensively skilled player than Duncan.

In fact, the impact that Bynum's absence is having on the team is quite clear in this series, with Utah bullying the Lakers on the boards, and pushing them down and demanding their lunch money everytime the Lakers come into the lane. If they were a poor[er] free throw shooting team, the Lakers would be down 3-2, and might have even already lost.

And that's another great thing about Bynum (especially when compared to Hack-Me-Shaq) --the guy can make his free throws!!

You add his hardnose defensive capabilities and inside presence, allow Gasol to play even smaller guys (which is still no short order in the west), allow Odom to play even smaller guys (where he should definitely flourish), and still have Kobe Bean Bryant cast as the second-best who ever did it???

Man, I smell a 4-peat!!!
Bynum will get a ring if they win. Heck, Mychal Thompson will get a ring. He's the radio color guy.

I'd like to see Bynum and Gasol play together though. The new century version of the twin towers. I could see a dynasty being in the future with this crew, but they have to play to their capabilities every game.
an improved bynum will give them a strong chance to repeat but its a work in progress he and pau will have to learn to play together and pau will have to play pf which wont be a problem on offense but he has a hard time playing away from the basket on D...........if that doesnt work then someone will be coming off the bench and it wont be pau.
everybody gets a ring.

Lakers would move Pau to PF and keep Bynum. Chemistry starts over when they meet and play during preseason. It will work out.

Dynasty, perhaps, but too many good teams in the West.
bynum would start center, gasol at power foward and the rest as they are
He will be like Robert Horry. He will get a ring when he didn't make a difference
it would have the potential for another laker dynasty!
ruined chemistry
he would just add to the lakers super superbness
