[QUOTE=DKLaker]I liked him since we drafted him.......but let's not get too excited yet.....right Smush? :roll:[/QUOTE]
yeah yeah ha ha ha smush parker was a bust. God I should have never posted about him back in the day. I gotta admit though laker fans were being stupid in this era.
Here's another rumor to throw into the mix....

I'm sorry, I couldn't resist :oldlol: :oldlol: :oldlol:
It's funny that the numbers Smush put up in his best season would make us drool now, compared to what our current guys are doing.
Smush's biggest problem is that he was painfully shy and couldn't deal with the attention, interviews etc......to the point it destroyed his game. He actually did have the skills and game.....but as they say, a large part of the game is mental.
Jose Calderon for the TE? Would make alot of sense, give us that PG upgrade we desperately need and give Pau a Spaniard buddy so he is happier...:D
Calderon scares me on defense but offensively he's a huge upgrade.

The thing is, in his first season as a laker, he started in all 82 games, shot at least 45% from the field, averaged 12 points, 3 boards, and 3 rebounds. Not to mention he was a highlight reel with his dunks. I became really irritated when laker fans were putting blame on this guy for the losing. For crying out loud, people overlook that Kwame and Brian Cook were starting that time.
Smush is not a starter, but he wasn't the reason for ALL the losing either.
Rumors on Lakers looking at Sessions right now.
[B]ERIC BLEDDDSSSOOOEEEE!!!!![/B] Make it happen Mitch!!! Haha. :banana:
Lakers are working under the radar right now, if you can sense it. IDK it reminds me of when the gasol trade went down.
something will go down by march i hope

Thats always how they have been, and how most other teams' general managers are as well. So yes, they could be working on something big right now. I'll tell ya one thing, Mitch isn't one to sleep on the job. He's always looking to make big things happen.
Problem is guys there is no Houston trade on the table.
Houston wouldn't trade Lowery even straight up for Gasol even if it did work money wise (which it does not). Lowery is a top 5 PG right now. He's 25 and makes chump change for the next 3 years. He is untouchable. Pau still has value, but he's on the wrong side of 30 and is owed like 60 mil over the next 3 years, this lowers his value. As does his decreased level of play.
I wish the Lakers had made the trade even after the CP3 part fell apart AND kept Odom. Then we would have had Bynum, Scola, Odom, Dragic, Martin and still had 2 first rounders. That was a mistake. Theres no way we'd get that deal (Scola, Martin, Dragic and the pick) now, and forget about Lowery.

I agree 100%......yes we should've immediately jumped all over that Houston deal.....and let Odom cry it out. We'd be so damn good right now :(
[QUOTE=DKLaker]I agree 100%......yes we should've immediately jumped all over that Houston deal.....and let Odom cry it out. We'd be so damn good right now :([/QUOTE]
Damn straight brother! Think about what we'd have:
Bigs- Bynum, Odom, Scola etc
Wings- Kobe, KMart, Barnes, Metta, Ebanks
PG's- Dragic, DFish, Blake
Tons of depth and lots of chips for trades. Plus 2 first rounders (our own and the Knick pick, which right now is beginning to look like it might be a lottery pick!)
Imagine what KMart will be worth (in trades) this offseason. A 20PPG scorer with an expiring 12 mil deal, he'd fetch a ton.
Dragic is better than any PG on our roster. He totally looked like a starting caliber 1 when Lowery missed a few games a while ago.
Scola and Odom ensure we'd still have the best combo at the 4 in the league.
Now, we have none of those things.
Missed opportunity.
And Lamar acted like a baby, but that's LO, he's ultra sensative.
Best to hold his hand and whisper sweet nothings to him and keep him.
Unfortunately, that deal is off the table:facepalm

It's too bad we're not running this team Bro :cheers:
[QUOTE=DKLaker]It's too bad we're not running this team Bro :cheers:[/QUOTE]
Cheers!:cheers:
We ought to be asking about Hinrich. He's back now, but Teague has been the stud the Hawks also hoped he'd be, and Pargo has been playing well as the backup since Hinrichs been out.
He'd fit in the TE, and he's on an expiring deal, so no long term commitment (unless it works out and we want to keep him)
Plus, Atlanta is about 8 mil in lux tax land, so shedding his contract would save them double (actually even more with the new CBA)
We are probably holding that TE for a bigger deal at this point, which I understand, for now.
What about Pau for Josh Smith and Hinrich? Might have to throw in a pick, but Hinrich is useless to them at this point, and they have thought about moving Smith before. Pau would look good next to Horford when he returns.
And we'd get instantly athletic! (Plus Josh is tight with Dwight) And we'd still have the TE.
This may sound crazy, but I'd ask about Stephen Jackson. They seriously want him gone, and I have always admired his game. He could split time with Barnes at the 3, and back up Kobe at the 2. He's a tenacious defender, and he can get his own shot, which we desperately need for our bench. Wonder if they take Metta and one of our young players, plus a pick and cash to move him. Save them some money and basically swap our problem for theirs.
At the beginning of the year, I said we most needed help at the 1 and 3, and getting Hinrich and Jackson would address those 2 weaknesses, while still keeping our trade chips to pursue the big prizes (DWill and/or Dwight)

:cheers: You are on a good roll......unlike some people on here :oldlol:
I like your ideas!!! Stephen Jackson would be HUGE!!!!
I'm not a big Hinrich guy but I would definitely prefer him to what we have.
I was a Josh Smith guy but his game hasn't evolved....sad because I love his hustle and energy.....but shooting:facepalm I think we could do beter than the Hinrich/Smith deal for Pau.
I wish someone would hit Metta in the head with a bottle.....we need Metta World War :oldlol: Even Kobe said it.
The lakers were only doing that deal because it was also somewhat of a financial relief to the lakers, when they were going for Chris Paul. Houston would be giving up so many contracts, that lakers probably didn't want to take, seeing that the new CBA is financially strapping the bigger market teams more than the small market ones.
The other option that we haven't discussed is the draft. The Lakers could stick with the PG's they have right now and draft someone in the offseason. It'll be weird seeing the Lakers draft a bit higher than they're used to. The thing with this draft is it's completely loaded with talent and much of it is big men at the top so there's going to be some good PG's who drop into the 20's range. A guy that I think could be really good in the NBA is Marquis Teague out of Kentucky. Right now he's being projected in the 20's and if he's around at that point I would think the Lakers would take a hard look at him. He's super fast, has the size, gets into the lane, and can create. I think his game is really suited for the faster pace of the NBA. Now, I do understand that LA could end up trading their pick if the make a blockbuster trade, but it would be awesome if the Lakers could make a trade and keep their pick.
[QUOTE=DKLaker]Draft???????????? Are you joking????? So.....we blow off this season and gamble that we draft a guy who could help us by his 2nd year.....maybe???
[B][SIZE="4"]Ask Kobe how he feels about that[/SIZE][/B] :oldlol: :oldlol: :oldlol:
We have to get a functional athletic NBA PG....doesn't have to be a great one.

Kobe was recently interviewed by Stephen A. Smith saying regardless of the moves the lakers make, that he will now retire as a laker, and that the previous demand for a trade's ship as sailed. Kobe is now here for good.

I'm not kidding you. Do you really think the Lakers are going to get a great PG this season? This current Lakers roster obviously isn't going to win a championship. Orlando isn't going to trade Howard until the last minute, maybe even the off season so I don't really think it's realistic to think any big moves are going to be made this season. They might grab Arenas but that doesn't make them contenders all the sudden. This off season is where I see the biggest moves being made. We might be stuck with this current roster for this season. So absolutely, I think the draft this year is crucial. Rookie PG's have been known to step in and contribute right away. I'm sure you wouldn't be complaining if the Lakers had Irving or Rubio :cheers:
Our current PG rotation has really been this bad?
A fair no of us fans were screaming for ANY DECENT PG 2-3 years ago and almost the same no. of us were quite excited upon hearing that they just signed Steve Blake. Steve looked pretty good in Portland, Denver and with the Clips and now??
Which brings in another chicken or the egg question. Is it really the lack of decent PG or is it bec Kobe tends to dominate or hold the ball for atleast 5 seconds at times, hence stagnating the offense or "limiting" what a typical PG can do??
Somebody in 710 am radio this morning was lamenting how the the Lakers missed out on the greatness of Jermy Lin and one caller brought up the point I mentioned above.

You said this
[QUOTE]Ask Kobe how he feels about that[/QUOTE]
Which to me meant, he would get pissed. In the past when he got pissed, he demanded a trade. So I concluded by your post, that you insinuated Kobe would want out again if he got pissed.
Its just a discussion board DK. The lakers aren't looking at our posts and asking "should we listen to freak or DK". We're just having a basketball discussion, and learning at the same time.

You just helped me make my point..... They may not get a great PG with their 1st round pick, but they could get someone who is pretty good and would be far more affordable. I'd rather not make a trade for a mediocre player. A guy like Sessions is not the answer either.....

I'm still high on Morris, but I never said he was a for sure answer. He definitely deserves more PT though. The first round is loaded with talent this year and I think it's a good pick to have. Anyhow, there is no quick fix. The Lakers need a season to rebuild. Let's just be happy that they're still a competitive team and have some tradeable pieces. I'm sure they'll make some moves, it's just not going to happen overnight and I think it'll probably take more than this season.
Session and Arenas ?

True, you never said he was the sure answer, I was simply making the point that a guy like Morris may turn out to be a complete bust.....to bank on drafting a rookie to play PG for this team is far too big a gamble to even consider.
There is absolutely no reason that we cannot make a simple trade or two to make this team a championship contender......we have already passed on a deal which would've done that.....the Houston deal....Scola, Martin, Dragic and #1 pick.....would've given us a definite shot......and if we pulled off a Bynum for Howard deal...I would have us as the favorites. This could still happen. Look at how late in the season the Pau trade was made.....and we got to the finals.....no reason at all to think a trade deadline deal or two would be too late.

Agreed, ONLY if it is a worth it move.
About the lakers deal with houston, don't forget that we would have unloaded two big contracts of underachievers in Odom and Pau to get that done to take on a superstar in return.
I guess in that case, for the lakers it was "Chris Paul or nothing". And can you blame them? Taking on all those players would have been a big financial load for a team that we don't even know is going to win the championship. Kobe said it best himself "Other teams are just mad that there would have been a superstar to carry the team after im gone...." Thats honestly what that Chris Paul trade was for. Not to get us to win championships, but to prepare for the long anticipated departure of the second greatest shooting guard to ever play the game.
Make sense?
Lakers is currently giving Gilbert Arenas a test at the moment...
[QUOTE]In a search to find some scoring for their floundering offense, Los Angeles Lakers officials attended a private workout for guard Gilbert Arenas on Sunday in Southern California, league sources told Yahoo! Sports.
Two sources familiar with the workout said Arenas moved well and made a positive impression, but there was no sense of how quickly – if at all – the Lakers would pursue signing him to a free-agent contract.[/QUOTE]

On a different aspect, thinking further ahead...if Lakers accept, will this affect the Dwight Howard decision to the Lakers or not? Gilbert was playing with DH in the past and didn't seem to impact much, not sure if it was because of coaching or GA himself. If it was GA himself, it may affect DH decision toward Lakers I think (i.e. thinking oh...more of the same GA stuff). Also by signing GA, I hope it does not mean we won't go after top PG still like DW - I hope DH does not think this way too...

Well since we already unloaded Odom......and the Houston deal would unload Pau we would be completely fine financially......I actually preferred dealing directly with Houston to get those multiple guys rather than to only get Paul.
You NEVER know that a team is going to win a championship.....just ask Miami :roll:
What you do is take your best shot.....and if you have the best player in the game you have a damn great shot as long as you have the balls to make intelligent moves. I'm sure Jerry Buss would love to win 2 more titles to pass Boston before he dies....I'm sure Mitch and Kobe agree on this one.
I sure as hell know I do after enduring all those @ss kickings in the 60's.
I don't see wasting the last great years of Kobe's career as an option.....we may never have a greater, more determined, fearless winner as Kobe.....he and Jordan are in a class by themselves....so we have to take advantage of this NOW!!!!
After Kobe retires we will have a ton of cap room and will still be THE destination to play in and the franchise to play for......we aint Cleveland. Picking up a superstar or two will not be a problem trust me.

And I don't doubt that honestly...Leave out the fact that we are an attractive big market team, but also factor in that we have owners who want that superstar always.
