Andrew's brother posts on another Laker board and said that he's going to start.

Looking forward to the big guy coming back! Andrew's to do list:

1- Rebound
2- Block Shots
3- Sprint hard on the break, post in front of the rim.

And to his teammates.. get him involved early! GET HIM THE BALL!

We need Andrew if we're going to win the Championship.

Amen to you for bringing this up Tylers. It will be so huge to have him get some production early to build his confidence. No doubt he's not going to be putting up 40 and 20, but if he could get 12 and 8 in limited minutes, I would seriously bet my savings were winnin it all

I just busted a nut hearing that news.

ALRIGHT!!!! Gonna be great to see Drew again, and starting no less. I seriously thought coming back with only 2 games left was not enough for him to get a good part of his conditioning back.

8-12 weeks, and he's back in 10....awesome. After everything Pau's been through for the last 10 weeks with his increased minutes, the rest of the season and the playoffs are going to seem like a cake walk.

I'm not worried about him offensively, the biggest thing I'll be watching for on Thursday is how his energy is on the defensive end.

unleash the beast!!

I think we'd forgotten what a luxury it is to be able to have two of Drew, Pau, and Lamar on the court at all times. Josh is a decent player but any of them double his output, and DJ plays hard but...lol.

Also, Pau doesn't have to guard the big C's and PF's now, and can conserve most of his energy for offense. This just opens so many things back up for us.

I'd still start Trevor though. With the two 7 footers we need some speed in the lineup. I think a problem early in the season was that we were too slow and lumbering and the speed of the second unit was always coming in and digging us out of deficits. With Trevor in the starting lineup we have size and speed together.

Perfect way to cap off a great day for me. The rest of the league just pissed their pants.

Expect a lot of turnovers if bynum starts...

it probably won't be enough, but it's better to get him on the right track now, than in the playoffs
