If it wasn't for everyone saying he's following in Shaqs fotosteps etc, he would probably be alot more interested in coming to LA.

Interesting to see if there will be another bidding war between both teams, like they did in '96 for Shaq.  
Lakers always raise the stakes.

If they don't tender Odom and Bynum with extensions and let them walk at the end of the season.

Everyone is talking about monta or howard ? Which would be a bigger asset for the team if either was to come ???
Personally I say Dwight .... Strong on the paint leading blocker and will see a lot of Kobe to Dwight....

I can see it now
But in reality I dont don't think any of those two will come...
I like the team we have right now exept for Bynum getting injured all the time, hopefully that can change by him
Stayin healthy and also Luke and Blake need to go... Brown is a exiting player that is develop in, I would hate to see him leave

this.

how do u guys feel about giving a MLE offer to a legit back up 2 to rest kobe
Caron Butler
Jamal Crawford
J.R. Smith
Tracy McGrady


Caron - will be back with Dallas
Crawford - could be perfect off the bench with Lamar
J.R. - same as Crawford
TMac - he's done
Crawford and Smith I really doubt are gonna take the MLE
Caron is not leaving Dallas, TMAC is like the very last option if they can't find anyone else

How about Jason Richardson?

If we get Caron back I would be happy and Jamal is sick, we would have 2 6th men of the year, how much are they making now?

Caron has proven he can play with Kobe and he says he learned alot of his game off KB24.

It's just his current status which is injured that is risky, even then I doubt we'd get him.

He'd probably want alot of money?

Am I the only one that doesn't have the energy to engage in these off-season acquisition discussions? Not that its wrong or anything, Its just personally I don't feel like discussing free agents or trades until they actually seem like realistic possibilities to me. 
I was happy to see Dirk get his chip, he earned it. But i guess today it finally hit me that we should of been there...we definitely had the talent to do so.

Those sad feelings are back again

So yeah...i guess im not really in the mood to talk about next years roster yet... I'm still not completely over this last season.

^ I'm like that every offseason, man.

I said it earlier i the thread, that I don't get how people can sit around and talk about things that either will or won't happen with our influence and knowledge being NOTHING. I just can't play that kind of game.

When we get a rumor that so and so is most likely going to sign with us in the next day, I'll discuss.

Otherwise, y'all have at it. I'll be over here.

Sad to say but i don't think there will be any big changes. Maybe the bench get tweak a little . We will still have Luke Walton for the next 4 years
