OFFICIAL: Lakers sign Xavier Henry. RELEASE: http://on.nba.com/1dVoLXE | PIC: pic.twitter.com/1EMYnyFF2b

i havent seen too much of him, mainly because he rarely played. im assuming hornets fans dont have too much to say about him but what about memphis fans? Did he make an impression on any of you during his time there? Will he be one of the few players who can actually play defense for LA?

[no pun intended]

The Lakers signed #4 and #12 pick from the 2010 draft during this off-season.

[qrich]

Championship :bowdown:

[JimmyMcAdocious]

He was in high school the last time I can remember watching him play. So yeah. Crazy how he goes from the next great wing to a guy who can't even find a team. Tho, that seems to happen too often.

[Beatlezz]

The last piece of the puzzle! :bowdown:

[Johnny Jones]

What a joke :roll:

X-Man is one of the worst players in the league..

[CeltsGarlic]

Damn, my friend used to own me with this guy in 2k12.. the fvck how..

[CanYouDigIt]

Xavier has a 90 Mid Range in 2K13.

If he is that automatic from mid then he better learn to pick and roll with Gasol.







Yes, I am judging X-Man from a video game.

Like anyone really watches him play.

[Nick Young]

Best midrange shooter in the league-we are stacked this season, can't wait for Gawdbe to get back and lead us to #1:bowdown:

[Eric Cartman]

With him we now have 2 of the worst players in the league (Wesley Johnson)

Dude, he had one of the better pick/roll bigs in the league in Anthony Davis and he still sucked ****.

Also, I think it's important to note that X-Man couldn't beat out Rivers for the back-up SG spot..

If Kobe wasn't coming off a devastig injury then this team would actually fit. But Kobe likely wont be able to put it together.

The black Josh McRoberts

[andremiller07]

All the first round picks from Kansas lately have turned out to be complete garbage as lottery picks, Alridch, Morris twins, Henry, Robinson. Rush while good is consistently injured same as Darrell Arthur. I really hope Henry can turn it around he's got enough ability to play in the NBA

The team would actually fit? They hardly have any talent outside of Kobe.:oldlol:

They would make the playoffs with the Kobe from last year IMO and Mike Brown. Wouldn't matter bc they would lose in round 1 tho.

This year I hope they just embrace it and aim for the worst record in the NBA.

[STATUTORY]

are we gonna act like guys like Nick Young, Wesley Johnson, and X-man aren't gonna take the next step under the guidance of Kobe bryant?

kobe turned LBJ from bronze to gold in the short span of the olympic games, guys like Luke/Farmar/Vujacic into multi time championship winners. he's gonna work his magic with these guys with legit potential.

I see next Scottie in that group.

[crisoner]

I guess we are getting young and athletic?

[clipse026]

He was horrible and fat while with us last few years.

[Lebron23]

I guess we are getting young and athletic?


These guys are not good basketball players. They are 1-2 seasons away from being consider as a draft busts.

XMan has really improved. Props to him. But he was really bad the last 2 years.

Dat 90 Midrange Doh

[longtime lurker]

His handles remind me of James Harden with that herky jerky move to get into the lane

[Fresh Kid]

I aint guna lie I was shocked and impressed by henry last night:applause:

[Rooster]

His handles remind me of James Harden with that herky jerky move to get into the lane

Yes I did not know he has that game. Well I have not seen much of him until last night. I just kinda picture him as that energy type of player . It's only one game but I like what he can bring to the game.

[Levity]

with the way the 2nd unit spreads the floor, henry always has an open lane to 1v1 his defender. and with his eurostep, it seems like he'll get to the rim every time

i was worried no one on the 2nd unit would be able to create their own shot. so henry doing what he did was a huge surprise last night

Dat 90 Midrange Doh

Hate to overrate him but he absolutely looked like a poor mans version of harden

[Sarcastic]

Off season move of the year........so far
