    Definitely will take Iggy, keep him around 13 minutes a game. Keep him playoff ready.


    We might have to fight GS for him though

    Worth watching, but I think his ties to Bron and wanting a ship are stronger than ties to NY and Leon Rose.

    He'd be the vet who'd I'd be most surprised if he's not a Laker.

    In the spirit of the night before free agency, I’m going to play a game and predict how the roster will look like on opening night, and check this post when the season starts to see how close I was. Feel free to participate!


    Westbrook/Caruso/Cory Joseph
    Ellington/THT/Iguodala
    Lebron/Carmelo/Korver (lol)
    AD/Markieff/Gay
    Dwight/Gasol/Gorgei Dieng

    Is his ex wife and kid still living in NY? If so that could be a deciding factor.

    But he had such a great experience in NY the last time he was there!!! I am sure he would like to get another dose of abuse!

    I’m a girl and don’t use tissues but will use Eagle feathers to cry into if it happens. It just seems as you are rooting for it to happen. Honestly it would be stupid for the Lakers to get rid of Caruso. They don’t have the money to replace what he brings to the game.

    Sorry about that, I mean no disrespect. People do tend to get too emotionally attached to players sometimes though. I would not let Caruso walk for nothing. But, he may get a good offer from a team like Clevleand and he could just walk. So, we could end up in a situation where something like that happens, but I think we probably keep him for like 3 years/ 21 million.

    Didn’t see the Heat picked up Dragic’s option, guess he’s not on the list

    And your point? The regular season is supposed to automatically apply to the Finals? The Bucks did shoot 35 % in the Finals. Or where you referring to This team(Lakers) shooting 40 percent against Phoenix overcomes losing AD?

    Exactly why its paramount to bring our only two young guys back, Caruso and THT.

    Like those names, didn't know Jeff Green was available.

    feel like riley has lowry for dragic+picks in the bag.

    just too many injuries. worth looking at for reclamation, but i don't think we're the spot.
