Gary Payton & Rick Fox Traded to Celtics in 5 Player Deal
Smoke:
But c'mon, it's not over yet. We have thousands of good players to make interesting trades. So.. let's wait.

I don't think it's the end of the world, but honestly, this trade was just a trade to trade. Chris Mihns? I would not get Chris Mihns in any trade what so ever. And it's the draft pick that gets me. Payton, ok his done, Fox, already retired. But that draft pick could be huge. Say next year a Nelson type player falls deep into the lottory, I'd be mad as hell if the Celtics, or anyone after them picks up that player. The other young players, basically trade bait anyways, because unless you can perform in L.A., they get rid of you quick. Players like Michael Cooper, Kurt Rambus, Derek Fisher, Rick Fox, they stay with the Lakers because when they get playing time, they play good hard basketball. A Chris Mihns is not going to stay long. His going to play a little, suck, and might be used for 6 fouls when Shaq or Yao comes to town, and then move on next year. The Lakers don't take kindly to the Chris Mihns of the NBA, and hell even future Hall of Famers like Gary Payton get it too if they don't do well in that Forum Purple and Gold. So next year, or hell even before the year starts, some players will be moved. I just had a thought, is Rush any good at point guard, 'cause my man is a great player and the bench is not a good place for his talent. As for the scrubs we picked up, Chucky you cool, the other two, you better come correct or you'll go down with the other forgettable Lakers, 'cause if we can dump a Glen Rice and Gary Payton, imagion what we can do to towel wavers, unless of course you wave a towel like Mark Madson... :D

lol, I dont get how every Laker fan hates it.
seriously, Payton is an old dick, and Fox is an old dick who wanted to retire earlier anyway.
Im not saying that Mihm and Atkins are good players LMAO, but Payton and Fox suck ass too.

I ain't tripping off the players, I'm tripping off the draft pick. The plays will come and go like every other player that can't produce. If they prove their worth, then it's all good. But honestly, the draft picks are what get me.
