    I like GH, so I don't want him to force me to hate him by signing with the C Bags. He would be a good fit for the Heat. Do your magic Riles.

    I think he's going to Boston, and that is a shame.

    I think off the bench Luol can be serviceable. Is his contract gonna be valuable? Of course not, but if he builds up his value some, then it makes things a whole lot easier to package with a young player on a cheap contract and some draft picks to make a trade happen.

    I think Luol would be good to play the stretch 4 role next year BUT Randle or Nance would have to play the 5 . if Randle or Nance get abused then you put in Black/Zu.

    I hate how Jorge Sedano (ESPNLA710) said this super team thing is good for the NBA. He says it makes free agency turn into an arms race. But what about teams that don't have a piece to attract more. What about teams that don't have cap space. Sure its great for ratings and the casual fan when those super teams are blowing out opponents and the Finals turn into All Star games but it sucks for everyone else. You have 82 worthless games and 3 useless rounds of playoffs.

    What kind of team would be able to beat GSW if they keep it together for 5-6 years? Lebron, Butler and George?

    Those other teams? f*** em! Not feeling any fairness of competition guilt feelings going forward after the Lakers attacking CBA that was put in place and then by adhering to the new rules, the Lakers still got screwed for 6 years or more by Gilbert, Cuban, others and David Stern in trying to get back to the position we once had. We've paid our dues in embarrassing fashion. Each city for itself, that's what you get for being where you are.

    Now that would confuse me, but would make more sense why we'd look away from Ball and towards Jackson.

    But we can't pay him and we suck, so I'm not sure what Paul's appeal here would be...

    Except the obvious that this is involved with the LeBron rumors. LeBron and his banana boat friends want a place to go. Lakers could be that place. I sort of hope not though. I'm not here to serve their vanity. I don't want the washed up banana boat in two years.

    Hmmm, has Lebron ever signed a long term contract? Always thought he liked signing two years with a player option for the third.

    CP2? 5 years too late, next. Besides, we don't need another PG...

    We are about to have the limp banana boat with all these basketball aged geriatrics coming here.

    Magic and Luke and Rob and Kobe and Jeanie are smarter than this, right?

    I'm in if not for those Mozdeng contracts. I don't want to trade any of the kids to accommodate the King's bananas. Kupchak's incompetence actually prevents these gamble.
