    Deng is a possibility if he would modify his contract and non-guarantee about half his remaining money. And he may be willing to do that to come here......watch.

    Watch for Deng and Clarkson for possibly Anderson, Black and Williams......if Deng modifies his deal.

    Haven't read cyber's other thread but we've been shopping for an Anderson deal for a while now. And there is synergy here with the Lakers wanting to clear cap. It depends on what else is out there that might be better. But if nothing better materializes and Deng will non-guarantee about $15-20+ million of his remaining salary for next two seasons we might take him, Clarkson, and Lopez (buyout) to get off Anderson's deal.

    That would be incredible, Brook is still a great player. He didn't fall off in one off-season.

    They can ....lure him in by saying they will give him a contract next season.
    Almost noone needs a center or will need a center next summer. The market is pitiful.

    You can't really classify cyberbombs as being "right" or "wrong". They're either "it happened" or "it didn't happen".

    Morey signs Lopez for MDA, but MDA never plays him because 7 man rotation or die.

    Kupchak really screwed up at the end there - Lakers have so much encumbrance with useless contracts.

    I like Lopez as a backup C. He's better than Tarik.
