KG- I understand your desire to think outside of the box, but saying you wouldn't trade bynum for howard straight up would make you probably the worst GM in the NBA. Besides all of the obvious stats which we don't really need to pour through, the most important difference is that Howard stays healthy. Howard has never missed more than 4 games in his NBA career. The most Bynum has played is 65. Howard is only two years older. Howard rebounds better and he doesn't need sets run for him to be effective because he could still get his points off of the boards.
I don't underestimate Bynum. He is a talented center and certainly underrated.
I love Chris Paul but I don't see a traditional PG being able to survive with Kobe. They both need the ball.
