Default Article: Los Angeles Times - Lakers' big guys could share playing time

LAKERS FYI
Lakers' big guys could share playing time
Coach Phil Jackson is open to a frontcourt including the 7-foot Andrew Bynum and Pau Gasol and 6-10 Lamar Odom.

Reporting from Las Vegas - The e-mails have trickled in at a steady pace to writers who cover the Lakers: Will Phil Jackson ever play Andrew Bynum, Pau Gasol and Lamar Odom at the same time?

It might finally happen.

The Lakers' coach is open to the idea of a frontcourt with two 7-footers and the 6-10 Odom.

"I think that we're very capable of playing like that," Jackson said Thursday. "We have to work on transition defense, obviously, but we know that's a weapon that we could use this year."

it would only work with certain teams and certain situations, as there are huge issues with transition defense... i dont expect we will see much if any of it. personally, i think thats pjax giving the media something to chew on.
