    I mean, he seems like a good kid and all, but you'd think we just cut a Laker legend with all the, "It's really sad to see him go." stuff. Dude played 20 games for us. This wasn't us releasing Rick Fox or Robert Horry. :D

    I think mainly it sucks to see one of the few players who goes all out on defense get cut. If KCP ends up playing in a similar manner people will forget quick though.

    For Nwaba, he should be more concerned with being picked up by any team so that he can get on that money train, known as the current NBA contract, than playing for the Lakers.

    This sucks.

    I'll be very surprised if another team doesn't pick him up

    If he can't play for us, I certainly hope he gets picked up by another team. He's worked really hard and deserves to be rewarded.

    Sorry Black Nwamba, and I hope you aren't picked up by a team like NJ or Sacramento

    I hope he clears waivers and we can sign him back.

    But cutting him and getting KCP, and then signing Thomas Bryant to a 3 year deal...that would be huge for us.

    After doing that, if we can get Nwaba back...and then sign a back up PG with the remaining room exception at 4.3M...it's a successful off-season.

    Good for him, they're rebuilding, he could get a legit shot there.

    I was thinking about this the other day actually.

    I think Hart is sort of similar too in profile with obviously less explosiveness.

    We now have to try to develop Hart and see what he has in the tank. We obviously cannot develop 2 SGs at the same time, therefore I'm not sad.

    KCP is going to play big minutes and Clarkson...so minutes for Hart/Nwaba were scarce to begin with.
