Tmac would be a great fit for this team

Lack of depth at the 3, plus a coach that utilises tweener forwards with point guard skill sets makes for a great opportunity for Tmac in Laker land.
I could imagine that TMac would thrive in the role that Boris Diaw played on the Suns. They are roughly the same height but Tmac is much longer and could serve a role as offensive initiator from the high post SHOULD we trade away a certain Spaniard.
Tmac was always a brilliant passer. He can still do a lot of things with the ball and relieve Kobe and Nash. With the right tweaks, he could even be neutral or a small positive on the defensive end as a help defender.
The Lakers could go big with Tmac, Kobe, Ron, Pau and Dwight. Play zone, shut down the paint and challenge the point shots. Probably not good for transition D though, lol.
The only player I could think more suited for this role is Lamar Odom.
