yeah but they still have pau and kobe on the payroll. They aint trading kobe and i doubt anyone wants pau and that ridiculous contract. I was considering this bc of that article saying the lakers werent sure if he was coming back or some kind of rift between bynum and the lakers and also bc if they give bynum max money, theyd be paying ridiculous luxury tax. Im no bima though so i really dont know. I was just saying, to me, thats the win win if we just wait and sign him outright and keep the picks and players. but i got cool story bro'd lol
