    Yeah, I respect abeer, he's a great poster, but I draw the line here. I can't stand Brick, his defensive "awareness," as well as him taking some of the stupidest shots I have ever seen. Everything and everyone else discussed in the offseason I can live with, but not him.

    Yep! I conveniently blocked out of my mind that Rick Fox had been a Bag from like 1991-97? And then a Laker who was mágnifico for us, 1997-2004. Fantastic defense; it was weird a GQ-looking guy was that good. I block out this stuff, I guess. I did not block out that little episode in which we signed Isaiah Thomas (the little dude scorer, not the Pistons one). I thought it was a mistake from day one. It was. It's the same reason I took a long time to sort accept Rondo.

    Can you imagine living in some alternative universe where McHale and Ainge got traded to the Lakers? Thank gawd we live in one where it did not happen.

    Wouldn't mind bringing back Dinwiddie personally for the right price.

    Yeah. He has value especially if he is utilized correctly.

    I liked him a lot too. I never followed his game before, but I actually really liked his fit.

    If Dinwiddie is willing to come back on a minimum its close to a no-brainer for me, you just aren't finding an equivalent talent at that price.

    He's not staying on a vet minimum. If DLO leaves especially we'll definitely have need for him and it will cost us more than that.

    We're the Lakers god damn it. Players should come here for free and other teams should line up with Pau/Kwame trades all day long...
    No wonder we have some many haters ;)

    I’m not to keen on it either but the FA market is pretty thin

    Spencer is on the decline IMO..I don't think that he's going to get, some kind of big payday, coming his way this summer.

    No one is suggesting that but I bet it won’t be vet min anywhere including for his home town Lakers. Would of course like to be wrong.

    I don't know LT..guys that get bought out and released, don't usually bounce back to big contracts.

    Now if Chokeolo just walked, I think we'd have more change to throw at him.

    I’m thinking between min and mini mid 4-5.

    The min for a 10 year veteran is up to 3.6M this upcoming season. 4M in the following one.
