I wouldn't put LA's championship hopes on a 20 year old kid just yet. i agree that he's a critical cog but Gasol's presence gives them an entirely different dimension that will help them in the long run.

And judging from history, Bynum started really strong last year too. But after he went down, he wasnt the same guy during the second half of the season. It remains to be seen how he'll do after he comes back from this injury.
