If it was private, how do we know he said that to the Lakers front office?  ...

Sam played really good last season but he'll probably end up being a nother Vlade or Aron Mckie.

I highly doubt it...Sam is still performing at high levels...Aaron McKie was already on a mad decline when we signed him...Vlade Divac as well...I believe Sam has AT LEAST 2 years left in his tank, and that's the offer we'd give him...2 years for the MLE...PeACe.

It would be sick if we signed him.

Man, i'm partially shocked about the injuries of Vlade and Aaron too, but we gotta be positive. I don't believe this shit. Cassell is a great PG, and i'd love to see him in purple & gold.

Sam Cassell is a winner.  He'd bring some needed veteran leadership to the Lakers.  I think that would be a great move from the Lakers perspective.

He aint going nowhere, He's staying with the best team in LA. why go to the 2nd place team?

I agree we all know if the Clippers keep Sam they are much better than the Lakers but Im not so sure the Clips are going to give him that 2 yr contract he wants.

I know why cuzz Cassell wants a fucking ring.I hope the laker can accuire cassell that would make a huge differance for the Lakers especially come playoff time.

i don't know if cassell would be that piece to bring back a championship to the lakers, he'd help becuase after all he's a proven leader.....you seen what he did for "garnett's" timberwolves he became the true heart of that team. you seen what he did for the clippers, leading them to playoffs and helping an excellent player like elton brand get beneficial number that helped the team. the bucks were a good team when he was there too aswell,  and you can't forget that he was  a big part of the rocket's success with those two championships.


i don't know if he can completely turn around the lakers and get them to the finals though, there's still teams out there like the mavericks and the spurs and even the clippers that are deeper and more talented
