    now let's hope he keeps his shooting streak from last season because if he regresses to the player he was before we are well and truly f****

    I can almost guarantee he will reset to factory settings at the start of the season. It usually takes him awhile to get going.

    Nah he’d still be a trade asset if nothing else.

    I would think it would be much less than 15 this season or we would be hard capped? I have no cap knowledge at all lol

    Whatever you think about Pope, he was our 3rd best Player in the Playoffs this Year. (yes, more than Rondo & Dwight)
    We were never gonna get equal value on a sign & trade or a Vet Min contract..
    Glad to have him back... Laker 4 Life

    i'm late but this is a very fair deal and something we needed.

    believe kcp turned down 5/80 in detroit. with us he made 18/12/8 and now another 40...

    so he got his bag but in one more year. and with a title.

    Speaking of, does he have a no trade clause with this contract?

    Didn’t he only get the no trade clause because of the logistics of his 1 year deal? Don’t think that will apply anymore.

    I'm glad we signed him, but in three seasons he played one decent one. He played pretty good in the playoffs, but I'm not sure he's worth 3/40. I'm very nervous he is going to revert back now that he has all that money guaranteed.

    It was never for the lack of trying or bad attitude, so Im pretty relaxed on that front.

    It's no so much the signing of KCP but how he fits with the other pieces: now you got a strong 5 man rotation across the guards between Schroeder, KCP, Matthews, KCP, and THT

    The Lakers are going to have one of the best backcourt next year and likely will be the best one without an All-Star
    Should really have a lot of versatility, good shooting, playmaking, and of course really really good defense.

    Schroeder brings an element that neither Bradley/Rondo or any guard bought last year is younger, and is not a bad defender either.
    Matthews was just flat out better than Green last year.
    If THT lives up to his potential man this will be fun

    This is what you get when you have an inexperienced Rob in over his head not knowing the salary cap. Watch this deal will probably fall through.
