As I said, the Brown trade was stupid. Kupchak totally blew it on that one because he extended their cap problems by another year or two. But I think that the drafting of Bynum and Farmer are moves that will help them down the line. And to be honest, I consider myself a pretty good judge of talent and I thought both of those moves were mistakes so I can't criticize Kupchak for making them.

As I said, I thought the drafting of Bynum was a bad move when first made but it didn't take me long to see what this guy could bring. I guarantee that people that were complaining that the Lakers didn't part with Bynum in a move for Jason Kidd or Jermaine O'Neal are happy now. This guy is on his way to the hall of fame.
