    don't stress about it too much, no one else even bothered to sign him to an offer sheet. the RFA game in the NBA is pretty much a joke now and the Magic ran a good enough smoke screen where other teams didn't invest too much time.

    Thats all crap probably started by his agent. No team is talking to this guy or thinks this guy is anything but negative. Knicks don't have 1st round draft pick next year so bringing him in would be headscratching

    Yeah he never was on same page or played well with Melo either. His whole 5 min of fame and with Nyk was with Carmelo sidelined when he was at his best.

    Aldridge to Spurs, glad that's finally done. I'm skeptical that he can truly become a Duncan replacement, but if Parker can bounce back and Duncan stays healthy, Spurs should at least make it to the WC finals next year.

    Aldridge takes a ton of pressure scoring the ball around the basket off Duncan. More spacing for Parker to drive lanes as well. He will have big bounce back year. They still need another big body unless Spurs think Baynes is the answer

    Baynes already gone to the Pistons. But yes, they need another big. Maybe West or Koufos. Wiz trying to dump Nene as well. Not really sure how any of those would fit cap wise though.

    hopefully not, don't want to see anyone over 22-25 y/o signed to fill it out. must tank hard by pulling out the best guys if/when games get close. need to finish with the worst or 2nd worst record in league to give a little leeway with the ping pong balls.

    If we can live through the Sedale Threatt era, we can make it through this. I'm just hopeful we can find a few more young diamonds in the rough and that this year's draft picks are worth building around.

    currently, of the top 5 projected guys, 3 are SF and 1 Center so that works well for the Lakers needs. there's a couple other Centers in the 6-10 range. of course, there will be a lot of shuffling in their rankings by season end.

    if the Lakers do this Hibbert trade, they better get a 1st rounder in return plus dump Young on the Pacers. otherwise, i'll be livid.

    Lakers have agreed to take Roy Hibbert from the Pacers. That's a win for them? Hibbert? I think they don't want to give up that top-3 protected pick next year, that's what trading for Hibbert tells me! New York and L.A. are no longer big destinations for NBA free agents.

    I can't wait to see the details on this. They will regret passing on Okafor in the draft. If its anything like the Kings/Sixers deal then they might have something here. Maybe a 1st rounder or a salary dump. I can't see where Hibbert fits in with the Lakers, he's as slow as hell. Maybe for defensive presence.

    Well he can stand under the basket, grab the rebounds for Kobe. Perfect fit

    my biggest concern is that he could somehow be the difference in the Lakers winning 2 or 3 more games next year which could kill the lottery. that's why getting at least a 1st rounder in return is mandatory and dumping Young would be gravy.

    Hibbert is a bad rebounder for his size, gets pushed around by mid to upper range Centers, and of course will slow the offense down, so that's not too bad overall. i just hope Mitch doesn't get outmaneuvered by Bird on this one. i'm paranoid though that Mitch might be doing this with the stupid idea that the team could actually contend for a playoff spot next year, rather than just focusing on winning the trade.

    Salary dump by Indy and Lakeshow just filling a void for 1 year most likely. Love how all these clowns talking shit are acting like this was a make/break year for L.A. getting any big splash free agents that would put them into contention over night lol. Next year is when they hopefully are Kobe free and the real fireworks begin
