    I think this will turn out to be a significant signing for the Lakers. With Fox out last year, Devean George was not able to pick up the slack. Russell is a tough minded player that should do well in a system where he is not counted on to score.

    Actually, it's Bryon Russell...common mistake...

    Probably my fourth most hated Jazz player ever behind Stockton, Malone, and Hornacek...Now he's playing for the LAKERS!!!! Dude used to kill the Rockets with those baseline three pointers...

    And more experienced. To Jackson, younger players are amphibian feces.

    great observation. This is a great pick-up for the Lakers. Good defender. He will replace Horry as the Lakers clutch shooter.
