You haven't seen Marko Jaric really play...I think he has potential to easily be on Steve Nash status...He's only 27. He was playing great for the Clippers last season during the first half, but second half of the season he had that little injury which kept him down a lot, put him in the shooting guard (and even small forward) position, and cost him many minutes, which all really lowered his averages...If Marko Jaric can stay healthy, he would be the perfect fit for the Lakers...Great passer, nice ball-handler, very good offensively, and knows how to play defense...He'd be the best fit for the Lakers right now...Nick Van Exel is not that old (34) and his bad knees are said to be improving... He has at least 3 years in him (hmmm ???...Phil's contract is 3 years), and he can still be a great offensive and defensive threat for the Lakers...Derek Fisher will sign for as cheap as Derek Anderson, if not cheaper...Fisher is currently getting 6 mill a year from GS, and when they waive him he can sign for much cheaper...Derek Anderson wants 5 million a year, which is not bad, but I'd prefer Fisher...Whatever the Lakers get, I bet it'll be an improvement over Atkins...Whoever says Atkins would be better than any of those 4 players mentioned hasn't seen a Laker game all season...Chucky Atkins might be good for 10 minutes off the bench for an offensive push, but a starter? He plays no defense whatsoever! Whatever the Lakers next move is, I'm willing to bet they will be twice the team they were last year...PeACe
