What really helped the Lakers was the Bulls disappointing in 2008. They were rumored for Pau for the prior 18 months.

In 2010, Bynum got hurt in Memphis too.
I'll never forget Kobe's face. He looked like he knew his title chances fell through.

Yup that moment burned into my memory as well, Kobe rammed right into that knee. Infamous. Pau standing over him tooIn 2010, Bynum got hurt in Memphis too.
I'll never forget Kobe's face. He looked like he knew his title chances fell through.
Him screaming on the ground was definitely sad as hell

The Lakers were trying to acquire another big piece all summer 2007 and even into the season to placate Bean. They were playing well but that wasn't stopping them from trying to improve the team.

^^^ The varying reactions to serious injuries is interesting to me, probably because I’ve torn an ACL and blown an Achilles. How some guys writhe around on the ground in pain and some just grimace and walk away. I guess it speaks to pain tolerance being widely variant, even for top level athletes.

Scottie Pippen said recently that he's "no longer employed by the Bulls," who had hired him as a team ambassador.
Chicago just hired Arturas Karnisovas as Executive VP of Operations, and they fired long-time GM Gar Forman, but Pippen was reportedly ousted in mid-March after a contract dispute. Pippen took a shot at the Bulls' poor play in recent years, saying, "[The firing] is probably a good thing, right? I like to associate myself with winning." The Bulls' structural shake-up seems extensive, so it will be interesting to see what the roster looks like whenever play resumes.

Actually, reading more into it that was the summer that Kobe demanded to be traded. The same summer where he wanted to ship Bynum's *** out for Kidd
Kinda remembering it even more reading about the Ariza trade too. They (org and Kob) seemed to finally be at peace up until the injury. The Pau trade worked out for Memphis in the end but at the time it was definitely viewed as a David Stern screw job and how could this possibly happen type scenario
