    Why would the Lakers get Biz now? That ship sailed when the Lakers gave a 64 million to a back up center.

    Guys, Mozgov is our starting center.

    Next up.... solid vet wing(s) and a backup PG.

    We could still add Biz and someone like Turner and be below the cap. We need assets!

    If DD's deal is not backloaded I'm pretty sure they can't retain Biyombo.

    Very much so. Could be a better version of Bogut/Ezeli.

    What is going on here. I don't understand this free agency period and what the Lakers are doing. We have become the clippers of old? I believe so.

    Thanks! Hopefully that's true. Makes the deal that much better.

    You are going to pay almost 40 million dollars for 2 guys who play the same position?

    What the hell does it matter? We need TALENT. We are in position to pass it up. If we have a chance to get Biyumbo you do it no questions asked.

    That type of money for Mosgov is insane. There are legitimate concerns about his injury history that would immediately stop me from offering even 10m a season.

    Putrid and disgusting.

    I believe you, I'm just surprised I missed it I was paying close attention. Or at least I thought I was.

    No questions asked? I think there can be plenty of questions about spending huge amounts of cash on average talent at a dying position.

    I'd rather roll with Black and Zubac that sign Mozgov for 15 million even for 3 years. Horrible, horrible deal. Shows how incompetent Jim and Mitch are in free agency. I'd rather have Whiteside for the max. I didn't even think Mozgov was possible because 15 million for a scrub seemed impossible.
