consider mitch track record


Brought in Ariza

Brought back Fisher (:shaq2:)

Lamar

Pau

Brings a couple shooters in Sasha and Jordan Farmar

We competed for 3 straight titles so no need for any big moves, but Mitch STILL brought in ARTEST

The one year we get swept, he clears up 40 mil in cap space and brings Chris Paul, with an eye to Dwight or another big.


Now I'm supposed to believe hes gonna sit on the sidelines? Buss got these nikkas fooled :laff:

its not a knock against gasol, but why would the wizards even consider taking on that much salary. would they be sending someone back in return?

As a Laker fan, fukk yea I would want the trade to happen, but I doubt the Wiz would do it, but the Lakers would take Blatche too with them, so the Wiz can get rid of his terrible contract and Pau may not be in his prime, but as a 3rd option he put up 17 10, which is impressive as hell, and in the East he would be the 2nd best center after Howard. Plus, the Wiz can take anybody not named Kobe and Bynum for the time being in return for the trade. But, the Wiz are gonna get Beal, as Wall needs a 2 badly that can create his own shot, and Beal imo is gonna do big things, but if, big IF imo if the trade happens, :yeshrug: I ain't mad and is gonna be great for the Lakers and more power to Mitch.

Mitch has the coli shook they no some big shyt gonna pop off so they try to downplay it btw got these from LG

Apparently the deal being discussed is Gasol for Blatch & the #3 pick (couple fillers)...iono what Mitch has up his sleeve brah but should be interesting

"News has come out that the Timberwolves and Lakers are set to execute a trade for Michael Beasley sometime in July. Although it is still unclear who the Lakers would be giving up, it is widely believed to be Hill as that is who the Timberwolves are very interested in. If the Lakers do indeed trade Hill for Beasley, the deal seems to be a fair one for both sides. The Lakers would get a big man with good rebounding skills, and a wide array of offensive weapons, while the Timberwolves would get an excellent rebounder, and a guy who can clean up the very few misses of power forward Kevin Love".

This would be terrible for us. Jordan Hill would turn into a dog here.

That said, Beasley's a Laker this summer, so look forward. That's a guarantee. I personally just don't want Hill back. You can have Beasley for free.

it's just a rumor, and I doubt its true but here's one I found:
Market Table: news and rumors

In the NBA is preparing an earthquake of major proportions that could alter the balance of forces in the Western Conference, a massive operation like the one held in Miami in 2010 to LeBron, Wade and Bosh, now champions, or that gathered in Boston in 2007 to Pierce, Garnett and Ray Allen. The Mavericks would recruit Deron Williams and Pau, the Lakers would do with Dwight Howard and the Magic would receive Bynum.

It's something that we talk backstage at the NBA. Dallas, winners in 2011, was eliminated in first round by the Thunder. A severe 4-0 was the start of your holiday and also the need for changes in the staffing of Rick Carlisle, whose contract was renewed for four seasons.
These days it is the possible transfer of Pau Gasol to the Mavs. In operation, Lamar Odom, who has asked to leave the team and wants to return to Los Angeles, and another player would end up on the Lakers.
This was by Marca, which is pretty big in Europe papers. But, terrible trade for Lakers. Lakers get D12 and LO back, Dallas get Pau and sign D-Will, while Magic gets Bynum. I doubt its gonna happen, and for now I am cool with going with Bynum as our starting big for the future.
