Jackson: Lakers Miss Radmanovic

[crc21209]

The Lakers traded Vladimir Radmanovic to the Bobcats last month for Adam Morrison and Shannon Brown, a move that saved the team about $17 million.

Radmanovic was often knocked because of his inconsistency, but Los Angeles coach Phil Jackson says that the team misses him.

"He's a qualified player. He can do things, he's going to have an impact on ballgames," Jackson said. "We miss him, there's no doubt about it. But that's it -- water under the bridge, you move on."

lol he used to abuse the radman everytime when he did have him. Think having sasha around has made him appreciate the "space cadet" a lot more ........

Dumb move by L.A

Especially considering how Radman lit up Manu in game 1 of the WCF last season.

Vlad's defense seemed to be killing us while he was here, but now I wish we had him still. But it was strictly a salary cap move and made a lot of sense at the time.

Vlad was a decent defender. A great shooter and a decent rebounder. And for his size that doesnt come by too often.

That's unfortunate. I can't say I care.

Your right about the rest, he was a solid player and never seemed to miss against the Spurs - but i couldnt help but Lol at the bolded part.

Why am I not surprised? I said it when they traded him that they would regret it. Complete dumb-ass move by the Fakers.
