A Little FA News

[Black Adam]

Right now we have this many guards potentially on the roster: Kobe, D'Angelo Russell, Jordon Clarkson, Lou Williams, Jabari Brown, Vander Blue, Jeremy Lin, Ronnie Price, Swaggy, Buycks, Anthony Brown, and Xavier Munford.

thought Anthony Brown was a SF...

 

[Black Adam]

This is better than the Clippers line up.

the Clippers, you say...

Anthony Brown is a SF/G similar to Kobe, CJ67. I included him the list. The same could be used to characterize Kobe and Swaggy.

Looks like the S&T deal for Lin is proceeding as the Low Williams and Hibbert deals get done.

Rave reviews of Russell and Randle at today's first summer league practice. As I said before, the Lakers may already have their stars. It will just take a little time to get there. Russell is smooth.

Looks like Wesley Johnson is walking across the hall and is going to play for the Clip joint following a long line of ex-Lakers (list is the article). Here's the link.

GM Doc just keeps digging that hole. "Yep, we need centers. How about we sign yet another wing player instead?"

Upshaw has a decent jumpshot.

Hope he takes all of those missed layups with him.

 

[Retroram52]

I totally agree TJF12. The guy has tremendous athleticism but never put it all together in a consistent fashion. A case of disconnect somewhere.

Some guys just aren't aggressive/assertive enough and never realize their true potential. To me, he's like a poor man's Lamar Odom. Lamar is ridiculously talented and had a Magic Johnson type skillset when you consider his size, ability to handle the ball, etc. But he just did't have that extra motivation and/or confidence required to reach his full potential.

He seems scared of injury, otherwise he would be elevating and dunking on everybody.

Sounds like they will hold Randle out of Saturday's game. Make sense not to rush him straight into a B2B.

considering the games don't really count for anything probably a smart strategy...

Lin to Hornets. Should have done the sign and trade for a pick

 

[Hangman]

With Jordan lying to dallas then returning to the clippers they might be after Hibbert. reports were they were before Jordan agreed to them. Night have to hurry on that deal. Also, the salary cap was set at $70 million for this season.

Hibbert changed his twitter banner to a Lakers logo. Done deal. Very curious to see the details of the trade.

 

[lakersrule]

With the salary cap at $70, I don't think they need to include anyone in the Hibbert trade and still be able to fit in Williams. I wouldn't mind seeing Swaggy in the deal though which would give them a few more million to play with.
