Which SF is right for the lakers?

[Nick Young]

Lakers need a new SF to become the best line up possibly of all time. The criteria:
Young, athletic
Knockdown spot up shooter
Defensive stopper
Doesn't demand touches
Hustle guy

Kind of like 2009 era Trevor Ariza, or Tayshaun Prince with better shooting.

What SF today fits that criteria?

MAKE IT HAPPEN MITCH

[RRR3]

LeBron James

[Levity]

a boy by the name of chandler parsons would be PERFECT for la

[Rekindled]

gallinari

[KDTrey5]

Lebron James

[Maga_1]

Ike Diogu

[bluechox2]

jamison is still good

[Mr. Incredible]

Scottie Pippen

[kennethgriffin]

the SF of today just has to play defense and hit open threes

just like always

only difference is instead of only having to stick with 6-7 forwards. now they have to defend 6-8 to 6-10 sf's with speed like durant/lebron

its never about offense. because that can be substituted with other positions

[scm5]

Rudy Gay.

Pipe Dream!

Bynum, Hill, Metta for Gay and Gasol!

Nash
Kobe
Gay
Gasol
Gasol

jamison is still good
he has mostly played an undersized 4 role. I agree with the parsons pick, except for the defense.

Unfortunately, there arent a lot of players who can shoot, defend and are hyper athletic for cheap. Austin Daye would be interesting there, if the pistons really are trying to move him. Also, JJ or Singler would be interesting on these teams. Each of them have some deficiencies, but all solid young players. well, daye may not be after he shat the bed last season

Kobe was amazed at how well Parsons was able to defend him this season. THe kid is long.

op said young. does that sound like iggy?

[boozehound]

hes definitely long and alright on D. But not a great defender based on the rockets games I watched (a lot) and talking to my diehard rox friends.

[Optimus Prime]

Iggy if Iggy could shoot, or Anthony Parker if he was 23 and 4 inches taller

Then I don't know ... Ike Diogu???:biggums:

:kobe:

[Crown&Coke]

Wilson Chandler

[qrich]

Al Thornton :oldlol:

[scm5]

KD!

He would be absolutely perfect!

[Rubio2Gasol]

Artest is the best in the league at guarding Durant/Bron.

They should go for a swingman who can score off the bench, Chandler wouldn't be bad.

If they're dealing Artest, Iggy.

[DuMa]

the one that plays without Kobe Bryant

Just get Lebron.

Thats why I added that it was a pipe dream

[Batz]

Andre Iguodala. But I'm fine with Artest anyways.

[cuad]

Dwight Howard.

[Smoke117]

Lebron James.

[Swaggin916]

Iggy
Gay
Wilson
Chander
Dorell Wright
Batum
Gallo
Deng

Are the guys that would work the best and half those guys are attainable lol.

[pauk]

lebron fits with any player, role, strategy, position....

[ncrizzle]

Danny Granger

[chains5000]

Ike Diogu
:applause:

[longtime lurker]

Danny Granger

Good call.

[Nick Young]

Granger would be a good fit, maybe can deal Steve Blake, World Peace and McRoberts and Murphy.

Pacers get more white guys+World Peace gets to redeem himself, Lakers get the missing piece

[Nash]

Lebron

Kobe
Lebron
Gasol
Howard


GET IN!!!!!!!!!!!

[$LakerGold]

i want Trevor Ariza back.

[RoundMoundOfReb]

Dwight howard.

[Levity]

a month into the season... meta seems to be fairing quite well, to the surprise of many. but ill still go with my first pick, chandler parsons, as the ideal 3 for LA. dont know if the lakers are really trying to move pau or not, and if on the other end, HOU is looking for a scoring pf, but if the stars aligned, would CP and one of hous many pf's ie: patterson, for pau a good deal? obviously other pieces would need to be added for salary reasons.


pardon the random ass bump

[HorryIsMyMVP]

If I were LA i'd much prefer Luol Deng. He provides length and is a pretty good shooter. Young still athletic and can finish on the fast break. Honestly perfect fit.

Give us Kobe.

[KOBE143]

Pau for Durant.. Both team benefit in this trade.. Imagine a front court of Pau and Ibaka, scary..

[HorryIsMyMVP]

Give us Kobe.

Metta and Blake? Chicago is pretty stupid. They might do it.

[swi7ch]

Adam Morrison

He only helped them win 2 titles.

This.

[KOBEtherealKing]

Chandlor Parsons or Wilson Chandler
Utah, lal and Houston or Utah, Denver lal trade

Nash
Kobe
Parsons or Chandler
Milsap
Howard

Get it done Mitchy boy :oldlol:

[LONGTIME]

Kawhi Leonard.

[Smoke117]

jamison is still good


:roll: :roll: :roll: Remember when all the Laker fans were talking about how much Jamison was going to do? He's had two good games which anyone with a brain knows is an anomaly. Not to mention wasn't one of the OP's criteria a defensive stopper. Forget a defensive stopper, Jamison has never played defense during his entire NBA career. Everyone knows he's a washed up piece of shit. Scottie Pippen could come back at his age and play the 17mpg that Jamison plays and play much better defense...that's how ****ing terrible he is.

[Cali Syndicate]

Chase Budinger could be a good fit IMO.

[OG LeeTSkeeT]

heard they are looking at Raja Bell or Pietrus still

[RoundMoundOfReb]

lebron

[Rekindled]

trade for Parsons and play him at PF.

[andremiller07]

I think they should have a serious look at Qunicy Pondexter from Memphis his stats might not look good but the dude impacts games hard.

[Noof]

Metta World Peace

[Whoah10115]

he has mostly played an undersized 4 role. I agree with the parsons pick, except for the defense.



Parsons is a very good defender.

[Whoah10115]

trade for Parsons and play him at PF.



The Lakers don't value losing.

[Sakkreth]

LA needs Landry Fields, I know that very well as Raptors fan.

[PP34Deuce]

Pretty sure Ariza can be had affordable. 6'8 rangy shooter with good team D.

People underrate that 2009-2010 Lakers team. They had shooters, and finishers in Brown and Ariza.

By rangy do you mean spotty? Because he's not at all a knockdown shooter. His main asset was his length on d and athletic ability to run the floor.

Don't forget to mention his ability to steal the ball. Intercepted it away from Melo TWICE in the Playoffs (Vs. Nuggets).
