Utah/Lakers 

Post#1 » by habibadobe » Sat Jun 30, 2012 8:34 pm

With Mo Williams returning to the Jazz we now have an extra point guard. Not sure this deal lights the world on fire but could be solid for both teams.

Devin Harris, Paul Millsap, maybe Raja Bell he had a blow up with the coach end of the year.
for
Paul Gasol, one filler contract if you want(Steve Blake, Josh McRoberts)

Lakers get 2 above average starters on expiring deals. Jazz hope that Gasol can return to his play of past years.

It's something to look at. It's very good from a salary perspective.

Devin Harris, Paul Millsap, and Raja Bell? I think Devin Harris needs to improve his 3pt shot, but I think his percentage will go up playing along Bynum and Kobe. The thing about that trade is that all 3 of those players are also expiring contracts as well. Very tempting.

I'm not that excited about the deal as a stand alone but if we can trade Bynum straight up for Dwight then I absolutely love this deal. Dwight alongside Paul Millsap would be beastly!

If the Lakers could possibly add Beasley for the TPE and sign Ramon to play backup point the Lakers would be in very good shape.

If you trade for Millsap, then the minutes are going to be shallow for the 4 spot.
