    I remember that. He saved a couple of games in the 2009 WCF against Denver doing that. The question I have is how much does he have left in the tank? He has to be getting up there in age.

    Have wanted Ariza back for awhile now, and while it has probably been more years than I imagined, I am happy that he is back.

    Well, he can give us 9/5 with solid defense. Will hit a 3 here and there too. Good signing, no question. We kinda knew he was an option. Love these "old" Lakers coming back.

    I’m kind of in “prove you have something left in the tank” on this signing

    Enough to play some D off the bench.

    ^Yes. He's not a full time, heavy minutes player as he once was but could contribute in limited time. Probably can hit a trey here and there too.

    Welcome back Goose!

    last few times i saw him, i thought he was cooked. but the numbers aren't terrible. we're clearly planning on platooning at the wings, right? bazemore/ellington/ariza so far.

    9 & 5 in 28 mpg for the team we faced in the finals. Depends on expectations. He's not the same Ariza who played with Kobe. But he can definitely give us 12 minutes a night. Based on the roster, we don't need more than that. Pick up a star wing definitely for a couple 6 minute stretches.
