I like Lamar and wish him well.
I hope he has turned his life around. That is more important right now than his basketball career.
I think Phil is bringing people in who have experience in the triangle. Otherwise, this move makes no sense to me.

Wish him nothing but success. I'll always love Lamar, one of my all time favorite players. It honestly felt like a long lost friend was falling apart when all those stories hit the media over the past year or so.

Some days he's 34; other days he feels like he's 45. It all depends on how many kilos he's snorting.

Like has been said already, I wish Lamar well. His entire life has been lurching from crisis to another for a while and being in LA was a brief and nice respite for him. If he can have a good closure to his career, that might help get his mind away from his other demons.

Phil has always liked Lamar. He is giving him a second chance in life and his career. Lamar has been on the downfall and most of his issues are happening with the people he chooses to surround himself with.
Props to Phil for believing in Lamar when everybody else has either turned their backs on him or tried to assassinate his character.
Now its up to Lamar to make that change. I think he will. Im hoping he will. He's a good man and he has been through a lot in life.

Hope Lamar is able to get it together, was always my second favorite Laker next to Kobe during the back to back title runs. Maybe just needs some Zen in his life.
Ball so hard.
