LA just drafted a PG, so no they don't need one. And, no, Bradley is not a better shooter. Why give away assets to overpay Bradley when they can just overpay Beverley?

FTR, Beverley is a career 36% 3PT shooter on over 4 attempts per game. Bradley is a career 36% shooter on 3 attempts per game. So actually Beverley is the better shooter.

Where is that Laker fan that always hangs out and was telling us all about how LMA would be floored by those 5 rings that Kobe won in his prime?
KOBE! LOL <blockquote class="twitter-tweet" lang="en"><p lang="en" dir="ltr">More LMA: He and Kobe didn't quite gel.

There are several teams that may need cap space soon, and we are holding onto two non-guaranteed contracts. A few situations to watch...... Toronto - Waiting on Wes Matthews. Would need to clear space. Delon Wright? Phoenix - If they need to clear space for LMA, could we pry Booker away?
It's Canada day, so for today Tim Horton's >>> all But yea, Krispy Kreme is the best. That stuff is like crack.
*1 hour presentation of Los Angeles, Hollywood, Cali weather* *Lakers proceed with hasty 30sec clip of their roster and Kobe saying "Do you want to learn what it takes to win like the Mamba?!" * *Jeanie Buss desperately coughs and smiles* *Aldridge leaves and says "yea.. . you'll hear from me" * *Lakers reps "That went great....didn't it?! *
Kobe is always a large part of the problem. <blockquote class="twitter-tweet" lang="en"><p lang="en" dir="ltr">More LMA: He and Kobe didn't quite gel.
