    If Bron is going to play minutes at C, you don't need both DJ and Dwight. Both have been 3rd string calibers Cs at this point. Might as well get Stan the spot because we actually need size and D at the wing. That said I'd personally drop Baze first. Baze is in a very crowded position. At least there's a path to playing DJ a few minutes.

    literally nobody, which is what the cash is for! we get to use all of our trade sweetening money just to dump poor vet min signings.

    I don't think we move either until the deadline, in case we need them as salary filler in a bigger (THT) deal. Probably just putting out feelers just in case that doesn't transpire so we know their market value. Another reason I don't think it makes sense to move either right is that their replacement player we'd sign won't be available until after the deadline and the buyout market really opens up. The one caveat to this is if a team loses a big to injury and believes DJ can help:LLLLLebronlaughing:... then maybe we trade him now and get an asset (2nd round pick) out of them.

    :LLLLLebronlaughing:... the "my bad" at the end. No s***! We thought it might have been a Patrick Swayze Ghost situation.

    That pass was the final straw and our lasting memory of this failed signing.




    Wow. They really love our bigs.

    This is what happens when you allow your players to run your team, second dumbest move the Lakers made this off-season.
