Andrew BynumLast Season:
The first three months of the 2007-08 NBA season were Andrew Bynum's coming out party. Period. Before hurting his knee on Jan. 11 against Memphis, Bynum had been averaging 13.1 points, 10.2 boards and 2.06 blocks in 28.8 minutes, appearing in 35 games and starting the final 25. More impressively, Bynum had [...]

Someone once told me that you can do whatever you want on your 21st birthday so I will let Andrew Bynum pass on this one. You still didn't sign that contract extension yet. Learn from the mistakes of those in the past like Latrell Sprewell and Jason Caffey.
Honestly who still likes throwing cash up in the air at clubs? That was so 2005!

Derek FisherLast Season:
When the Lakers re-acquired Derek Fisher from Utah prior to the 2007-08 season, the team surely was expecting the consistency that's marked Fish's 12 years in the NBA. But 82 starts, 11.7 points, nearly three assists and great marks from the foul line (8th in the NBA) and three-point line (21st) exceeded [...]

Kobe BryantLast Season:
It simply wasn't a good year for Kobe Bryant in 2007-08. Sure, he vastly improved his leadership and relationships with his teammates in leading the Lakers within a few games of a title a?? Who cares? Yeah, maybe he won the league's MVP award a?? Big deal. Perhaps he averaged 28.3 points, [...]

Offseason Movement: The Lakers re-signed Sasha Vujacic and signed Chinese guard Sun Yue. They probably overspent on Vujacic (three years, $15 million) but had to compete with European teams for his services. Vujacic had a great year shooting the ball, but didn't play particularly well in the Finals, especially on defense.

If you've been reading or listening to any of the NBA preseason predictions, the overall consensus seems to be that the Los Angeles Lakers will be crowned champs at the end of the season. I agree that the Lakers will probably be more difficult to beat than they were last year; and that's saying a lot, but this is a team that still has a few questions to be answered.
