Lakers sign Elton Brown
Sep 18th, 2007 by Inside Hoops
The Los Angeles Lakers have signed free agent forward Elton Brown, it was announced today. Per team policy, terms of the agreement were not released.
Brown, a 6-9 forward out of the University of Virginia, finished 20th on Virginia’s all-time scoring list with 1,356 points and 13th on the all-time rebounding list with 660 rebounds.
Brown spent the 2005-06 season in Greece playing for Makedonikos Kozani, where he led the league in rebounds while being the only player in the league to average a double-double, averaging 13.3 points and 10.5 rebounds per game.
Brown was a member of the NBDL’s Colorado 14ers during the 2006-07 season, where he averaged 18.4 points, 9.6 rebounds and 2.1 assists in 50 games.
InsideHoops.com editor says: I’ve used this line already this summer but I’m saying it again: Someone find Kobe Bryant and videotape his reaction to this signing.
If one examines the semantic paradigm of the triangle offence, one is faced with a choice: either accept the neotextual paradigm of team defence or conclude that this free agent signing is meaningless, given that Laker press releases are interchangeable with reality. The main theme of the recent rants by Kobe Bryant is a mythopoetical reality. However, Phil Jackson uses the term ‘neodialectic structuralism’ to denote the stasis, and subsequent rubicon, of family-operated sports franchises.
the lakers will not waste time to sign elton if he is not going an asset/ piece of the puzzle. for your info elton is a recruit of jelly bean, of course sonny is happy about this.
dear editor if you want kobe to leave LA, be a man to say it, dont use other people as an excuse!
mk: pj we will sign EB, this is the big move that jb promised u.
pj: wow, tell jb good job
mk: pj is ok with EB.
jb: ok sign him and tell my dad i will be out of touch or in rehab till the next season.
mk: im not sure jb, i might join u. i’ll just leave a voice message in the office.
jb: its your call, you know that we trust you alot about the team.
mk: yeah, i think jw is available anytime.
jb: we must buy back the sparks so that we both will have a job next season.
Another momumental signing by the “Cupcake”. Mitch “Cupcake” Kupcheck is the joke. If and when this idiot ever makes another trade he will probably be responcible for giving the other team a championship like he did by sending Shaq to Miami.
Kupchack is the most idiot GM I ever seen.
I think that is a par move to make the team better. If you are looking for a great player who is available make a trade to get kirilenko who is dismayed with the Utah jazz. You have offense and defense intantly and knows the hunger for a championship along with Kobe they will be great!
One of the two scenarios need to take place: Either LA trades for AK47 to go along with Kobe, Lamar, Luke, Derek, and Andrew or they ask for Kobe to be patient and wait for free agency next year to bring in the Matrix since Phoenix will not be able to keep him.
Once again, the Lakers are hard at work adding pieces to their Championship puzzle…i know with the addition on Elton Brown, Kobe is sure to back off his recent trade demands!-
wow
ive seen him in hawaii he is definitely better than the guys he is competing against in his position.
