Bynum is EASILY intimidated? Obviously you haven't seen that one game against Shaq. After he got dunked on by Shaq, he went straight to Shaq the very next paly and returned the favor. Remember the very first statement he made when he got drafted?? "I can make free throws." I really don't think he's intimidated by Eddy Curry, or Kurt Thomas.

And that comes back to the matchup. Let's say Lakers play the spurs in the playoffs, who's going to guard who?

Fisher (maybe even Farmar) -> Parker (advantage Spurs)
Kobe -> Ginobli (advantage Lakers)
Lamar -> Bowen (advantage Lakers)
Pau Pau -> Oberto (advantage Lakers)
Bynum -> Duncan (slight advantage Spurs).

Overall Advantage - Lakers.

Spurs and Celtics are probably the two teams that can be flexible enough to match up better with the Lakers. Detroit's toughness will be hard to ignore though. so the final four I'm guessing are these four.
