    LA Times confirms Radmanovic to Lakers


    Radmanovic signs with Lakers; Cassell on the way out as Clippers sign Suns' Thomas

    By Mike Bresnahan and Jason Reid, Times Staff Writer
    4:13 PM PDT, July 1, 2006


    The Los Angeles Lakers moved quickly Saturday on the first day of free agency, addressing their need for outside shooting by snatching away a piece from their cross-town rival by agreeing to terms with three-point specialist Vladimir Radmanovic.

    The Los Angeles Clippers also reacted quickly after Radmanovic and point guard Sam Cassell apparently reneged on agreements to stay with them, reaching terms with sharp-shooting forward Tim Thomas early Saturday.

    Clippers Coach Mike Dunleavy and the representatives of Thomas, a 6-foot-10 forward who revived his career with Phoenix late last season, completed a four-year, $24-million deal Saturday at about 12:30 a.m. The move capped a dizzying three-hour period in which the Clippers were informed Cassell and Radmanovic accepted and then rejected multi-year offers, sources said.

    Radmanovic agreed Saturday to a five-year, $31-million contract with the Lakers, the same package the Clippers offered.

    "At the conclusion of the moratorium period, the Lakers intend to enter into a contract with Vladimir Radmanovic," Lakers General Manager Mitch Kupchak said.

    Radmanovic, who stretches defenses by luring post players away from the basket with his outside shot, has career averages of 10.1 points, 5.4 rebounds and 38.1% shooting from three-point range.

    Thomas, a nine-year veteran, who makes his off-season home in Los Angeles, played a key role in the Suns' run to the Western Conference finals. Thomas averaged 14.7 points, 6.1 rebounds and made 37.8% of his three-pointers as Phoenix defeated the Clippers in the semifinals.

    Free agents cannot officially sign contracts until July 12.
    If Cassell's gone so are the Clippers as a contender.

    I disagree.

    Livingston is a stud, and can be ready to step in.

    They don't have much money left, but all they could need for a back up point is a Pargo or someone like that.


    Great move by the Clippers.


    The Lakers?

    I don't see what this does, other than, clogs up the perimiter even more.

    More post ups for Odom to kick out to Radmonovic and Kobe?

    I think Barry for JR Smith won't happen. Word is the Spurs were shopping Barry around the league during the draft. If the JR Smith trade was still alive, there's no reason that trade wouldn't be done by now.

    One of the two teams backed off and it's looking more and more like it's dead.
    I think Smith will be packaged with PJ Brown's expiring contract for some teams overpaid contract.

    Livingston couldn't hit a jump shot if you left him alone in a gym.

    For what? The Lakers just blew their MLE and I doubt they have any pieces the Clippers would want in a S&T.

    Sam's going elsewhere (Detroit? )

    The Clippers letting undoubtedly their second best player and their no doubt leader go? That's almost a good idea. They will win 42-43 games next year tops and regret it big time.

    It's weird that so many players are coming to terms on the first day. It doesn't normally go like this.

    Yeah the last time I remember this happening, was in 99 after the lockout.

    Don't know what the big rush is to get deals done.

    Strange.

    This means the Hornets probably don't want/need Brent Barry.
    Which also means that Brent may be around to read more Tall-Tales with Tim to children in the HEB Commercials.

    Stojakovic agrees to terms with Hornets

    By JEFF LATZKE, AP Sports Writer
    July 1, 2006

    OKLAHOMA CITY (AP) -- The New Orleans Hornets made the first splash of the NBA's free-agent signing period, agreeing to terms Saturday with three-time All-Star Peja Stojakovic.

    Stojakovic, who last week opted to become a free agent instead of continue playing for Indiana, will sign a five-year deal worth about $64 million with the Hornets, said his agent, David Bauman.

    Bauman said Stojakovic will sign as soon as the NBA's moratorium ends next week. NBA teams were allowed to begin negotiating with free agents on Saturday but cannot officially sign players until July 12.

    After playing his first seven seasons with Sacramento, the Kings dealt Stojakovic to Indiana in a midseason trade for Ron Artest. He averaged 19.5 points and shot 46 percent from the field in 40 games with the Pacers but then missed four of Indiana's six playoff games against the New Jersey Nets with a right knee injury. The Pacers lost each game he didn't play.

    Stojakovic, 29, opted out of the final year of his six-year contract in hopes of getting a long-term deal and a bump in salary. He had been due to earn $8.125 million next season.

    Stojakovic is one of the league's most prolific outside shooters, having hit 40 percent from 3-point range over his eight-year career. He and Seattle's Ray Allen are the only two NBA players to make at least 100 3-pointers in each of the past seven seasons.

    Last season, he finished 13th in 3-pointers made (162), and was also second in free-throw shooting (91.5 percent).

    Prior to his trade to Indiana, Stojakovic missed nine games -- including one against the Hornets -- with a variety of injuries including a protruding disc in his lower back, a sprained right pinkie finger and a strained groin.

    For his career, Stojakovic has averaged 18.4 points and 5.1 rebounds.

    The Clippers already have Maggette as a 6th man and they like Ross alot as a starter with Mobley. I was wondering why Radmanovic would want to go there as a 2nd 6th man anyway. Unless they were planning to move Maggette. As for Cassell they need him bad and he would start the next 2 years over Livingston imo. Or at least he should. Thomas can play the 3 and the 4 so he wouldn't compete as much for minutes with Maggette off the bench.
