Jason Kidd and Rasheed Wallace to the Lakers

[Lakers999]

Just a suggestion and im thinking they should be either be 1 year or 2 year deals the lakers can offer it to them this summer and the only way to do it is....

trevor ariza must sign at a maximum of 3 million dollars
LO must take a pay cut of 9 million dolars making his pay at 5 mil

sign sheed and kidd at 5 mill a year for 1 year.


this is assuming kobe doesnt opt out for less

Sounds like you want another Kobe, Shaq, GP, Malone scenario.

[Lakers999]

OH I LEFT OUT

reason why they will leave their teams:

The Lakers will murder Dallas in the first round and Kidd (ringless) would like to go to a real contender

Sheed is hampered by injuries and slowing down and the lakers need a B/U center/forward so we can use him off the bench or starting if we dont sign Odom

[Bob Lanier]

Because what the Lakers need most is another bricklaying guard who chokes in the playoffs.

[Lakers999]

I dont see Shaq in this scenario..... we dont have a dominant big man.... gasol is consisntent but not dominanat and bynum is above average at best sheed can fill the void when these guys are hurt....


main thing is to keep trevor

[Lakers999]

Because what the Lakers need most is another bricklaying guard who chokes in the playoffs.

we have enough scorers.... we dont need Kidd to shoot the ball he just needs to defend and dish the ball.... he can shoot if necessary

[dirk4mvp]

Because what the Lakers need most is one of the better pg's in histroy and would be a vast upgrade to the piles they have at pg now

[monosylab1k]

Because what the Lakers need most is another bricklaying guard who chokes in the playoffs.

Apparently shooting 40% from 3 is bricklaying.

I guarntee you that aint happening...you think Ariza is going to give the Lakers a discount when he is most likely gonna receive his biggest contract of his career. As for LO, he is to selfish to take one for the team. He wants to start and he isnt going to take less money and sit on the bench

fail

[Lakers999]

uhhh ya i guess so... I see he is doing wonders to your team.....


and just to think you guys gave up steve nash and devin harris....

LO is starting right now and Ariza will only have to play for one year at 3 million so we can give him a max contract in 2011.......

we can offer him a 36 million dollar contract if we dont sign LO and sign rasheed instead

[Shank]

The Lakers will murder Dallas in the first round and Kidd (ringless) would like to go to a real contender

If he wants to go to a real contender, why would he choose the Lakers? What have they done of recent note? He'd go play with his buddy LeBron in Cleveland if not in Dallas.

you are going to offer Ariza a max contract?

[sribb43]

LO is far from seflish. He took one for the team during his contract year by going to the bench. Kobe is the er Im worried about. He may opt out and really screw the Lakers. Ariza wont get a big contract offer in this current market. Even if he leaves, guys like him are a dime a dozen, just like when Turiaf left, Josh came in and is doing better than Turiaf.

Kidd is going to bust his balls trying to come in and play for the Lakers next season, and I see Rasheed playing for a team like the Spurs, but they might not want to pay him. Sheed is not quite at that vet min level yet i his career, but Kidd is.

Suns wont make the playoffs, and Shaq will do Kerr a favor and opt out of his contract and he will try to weazel his way back to LA or Orlando. Wherever he goes, Grant Hill is following.

LO is gone after this season, Lakers just cant afford him. They wont miss him.

So Lakers are going to sign Shaq, Sheed, Kidd and Hill this offseason?

[Lakers999]

no i said we can offer him a max contract i dont think it will happen.... but if the lakers win the le this year most likely he will stay comitted with the team

[sribb43]

not necessarily, see James Posey last season...

[Lakers999]

shaq will not finish his career with the lakers

sheed and kidd might.... i definately see these 2 with the lakers next season

[IronMexican]

Kidd isn't a triangle PG. Imagine if the Lakers traded for him back in 2007? Kobe rivals the GM skills of Jordan and Isiah Thomas.

[Lakers999]

not necessarily, see James Posey last season...

James is a role player Boston didnt want to match the contract NO had set for him.... so they let him walk....

Ariza is a starter and one of our consistent defenders... he is lakers priority #1 this off season

[Ditty]

you can get them while we snatch ariza from yall

Ariza is not a dime a dozen guy!!!!

[Lakers999]

Ariza is Lakers #1 priority NO way in the lakers will let him go to the SPurs so they can win another le..... you guys are all manufied live with it now

[IronMexican]

Man, I'd love Hill on this team. Remember back in Summer 07, Phil told Grant Hill to "call him" and Hill never did, because there was all that drama about Kobe being traded. I doubt the Lakers trade for Ariza that November if Hill was here though.

[DUNCANownsKOBE2]

Are you dyslexic? Nothing in my post said the Lakers were signing Sheed or Kidd. I doubt Shaq is accepted back by Kobe, or Buss either. Kidd has always wanted to be a Laker and Shaq obviously wants to come back and retire a Laker. Shaq mentioned that he and Grant Hill might go back and work in the front office of the Magic, but if he can come play in LA for two more seasons, he would prefer that, and Hill is in his back pocket.

Sucks to see opposing fans of the Lakers huh. Seeing us with all these options must be a . Im just saying...

As hard as it would be to watch him in LA, I'd love to see Hill go to a team that will return the favor he did for them by taking a pay cut and playing hard.
