^^^^ Most of the Lakers fans are unrealistic, wasting their time making very unlikely scenario all day which would bring us a All star team type of starting 5 ... It doesn't take me much time to understand our roster will mostly be the same as the 06-07 one... talk is cheap, I just believe in facts.... the only thing we can hope for, is that this team starts to learn how to play D and some players (such as Lamar and Bynum) improve ...

I don't know, homie. I mean i still hope we can make a couple of trades and fix a couple of things. Smush is not probably going to stay with us, so we will have Crittenton, Farmar and Vujacic as our PG's. I can't believe we will start the season with those three. I still hope we can trade Farmar and Vujacic and sign a good PG with the MLE. Other than that if we re-sign Chris Mihm and Luke Walton (i've read we're about to re-sign him: is it official yet?) we will have a pretty good team imho. With a 10+ points per game C and a good PG we can try to advance to the 2nd round of the P.O. and be the crazy bomb of the postseason. But i doubt we will be ready for the title anytime soon.

yeah Luke will resign July 11th.. I doubt we're gonna resign Mihm, he's asking the MLE, WAY too much...

Mid-Level exception i.e you can sign a player or split the amount of money  between several guys for around 5.5 M a year

The Lakers already signed Steve Blake who will be the starting PG. Farmar will back him up, so I don't see why they hell the Lakers drafted 2 PG's.

They reached an agreement with him. But your right, they didn't actually sign him yet.

Steve Blake? Damn, he's not starting material imho. Good backup player, but we already have tons of backup players!! I was actually hoping for a player like Fisher. He's the perfect guy. If we can get Fisher and re-sign Mihm it will be a pretty decent improvement over the last season.

I actually would rather have Steve Blake starting in the triangle over Fisher...Blake is an actual distributor who can handle the ball and run an offense, did you watch him with Denver? That said, we have NOT reached any agreement yet with Steve Blake...Luke Walton reached an agreement with us for $30 mill/6 years. Anyone thinking Laker fans expected Billups is retarded...PeACe

Yea, he knows it, but he was never the best at running it. His tough defense and veteran leadership would definitely be useful though...

Man i like this Crittenton dude. He's the perfect triangle PG for us.
Fisher as a starter, Crittenton as a backup PG.
That's what i'm talking about.
Veteran leadership, defence AND youth, skills, athleticism, court vision, 1 on 1, dunks.

We could trade Farmar (i don't really like him) and Vujacic.

^^^^ I agree 100%... Phil likes to have "big" guards to run the triangle and Crittenton is strong... plus he has already played in a kind of triangle offense in HS ... and fuck give the MLE to Fish, we need him
