My comment on the status of the Lakers
Sccit:
ROY HIBBERT IS AN A-LEVEL BIG ON THE DEFENSIVE END, AND THATS WHERE THE LAKERS LACKED MOST. HIBBERT IS A 2 TIME ALL-STAR AND THE BEST RIM PROTECTOR IN THE LEAGUE FOR A MAJORITY OF THE 10'S.....WE ACTUALLY BETTER OFF GETTIN HIM THAN OVERPAYING AND LOCKING UP OLD MAN ALDRIDGE FOR 5 YEARS.
Hack Wilson - real:
roy hibbert WAS a 2 time all star
never again though
Sccit:
AND THE CELTICS JUST TRADED AWAY ANOTHER DRAFT PICK FOR PERRY JONES...YALL NEVER GUNA HAVE ANOTHER SUPERSTAR ON YOUR TEAM AT THIS RATE N U KNOW IT. MEANWHILE, LAKESHOW GROOMIN 3 POTENTIAL SUPERSTARS AT THE SAME DAMN TIME....GET MAD.

I didn't want Aldridge either, too old for a rebuild project. He's young compared to Tim Duncan, but he only has 3-4 more years in his prime. That's not enough time for him to help Russell and Clarkson develop to a title contender. Lou Williams is more of a stop gap player for now, but he's 28. They are keeping Nick Young, who's 30. But they need that young big man. I am not sure what the disfunction is in management, but it's cost them Marc Gasol, who was my main target. I thought they should have gone after Marc Gasol hard, but he saw how they treated his brother and he stayed far away from the circus of the Laker's management.
Hibbert, I ain't mad at this trade. He's on the last year of his contract, he's proven to be an all-star at his best. I think that he can contribute and earn being resigned and if the Lakers get a real big man starter, then he can be a great contributor off the bench. But man, they could have had more.
