Lamar Odom can handle the ball. I don't see why we're all surprised to hear it thought of for him to run the point, b/c it's not the first time. Before Fisher came back, Odom was doing over half of the PG position on offense, and setting up the offense starting at half court.
If he could perfect his ball handling, then between his size, inside game, and him being a lefty...there could be trouble for all teams. He could rebound over basically any PG, back down any PG, and have a better chance of blocking shots/passes as well.
Also, the idea of Bynum off the bench has got to be the solution to the big guys not meshing. It might be too early to say they won't work together, but in terms of what their bench looks like...I would run things 1 of 3 ways...
Odom,Fisher,Kobe,Gasol,Mihm - Bynum off the bench of course
Odom,Fisher,Kobe,Radman,Gasol - Radmanovic to spread the floor with 3's, but he can't rebound
Odom,Kobe,Ariza,Gasol,Mihm - Ariza for defense, then Fisher can releave Odom, and Vujacic for Kobe
Other deciding factors in LAL are Sun Yue, as we haven't seen any NBA games here for him. Jordan Farmar, don't know how he's improved or not. Luke Walton is another honorable mention, that he could start at SF b/c he can pass, and hit open 3's...just don't let him take a "wide open fast break layup" when Ronnie Brewer is playing
