Josh Powell's contract

[lake_fan24]

hey ive been wondering, since the lakers signed him, does that mean his contract is guaranteed, not like a d-leaguer such as joe crawford, cj giles, dwayne mitchell, etc, a player they signed off season thats not a training camp signee?

According to hoopshype he has a 1 year guaranteed contract for about 850k

powell signed a two yr minimum contract. the first yr is partially guaranteed and the 2nd yr is non-guaranteed.

I completely forgot the Lakers signed this guy.

[Lost Angel]

i havent really watched him play.


is he energetic like Turiaf? at least we got some size

I completely forgot the Lakers signed this guy.

But he was our big off-season move!

Why didn't they just sign Juwan Howard. They probably could have gotten him for the same price or still could get him really cheap. One might even say in the playoffs Howard might be better then Ronny.

Howard is terrible and he is finshed.

He is no Ronnie, but if he can give us 5 points and 5 rebounds a game and some energy, that will be fine.

I think if people are going to make a big deal about Ronny Leaving, then they should also make a big deal about getting Josh Powell

he IMO is better than if not the same as Ronny
