For the wing players, Kobe/Lamar is an upgrade over Kobe/Vlad or Kobe/Walton. Lamar has been playing as one of the bigs, but there are going to be many more mismatches he can exploit when both Bynum and Gasol are on the floor. He's got the quickness to play with smaller players, but if he's being guarded by a wing player, he'll be deadly posting up. Lamar is probably the most versatile player the Lakers have. I think with Kobe and Lamar on the floor, the other position is really more of a shooter, although Fisher's such a good ballhandler that they tend to use him to drive into the paint. Farmar will thrive if he becomes a very good shooter. I think whether Farmar or Vujacic fills this role more in the absence of Fisher will depend primarily on the defensive matchup.
