Weren't you also the same guy that said Sefolosha and Harden were busts? I think I saw that in somebody's signature somewhere. :D


Kidding Deep3... We all make mistakes. Hopefully you're wrong about Nelson but I'd be very surprised if he sees any playing time outside of the D-league.
Sometimes being wrong is awesome!!! :D

So...what I'm taking away from this is he's not as good as Jelani McCoy...

Jelani McCoy had a decent career as a scrub

Naw Ace, I said they were garbage and if Sefolosha and Nick Collinson was traded to the Lakers I'd waive them. The mod tsherkin tagged it as a sig about a year ago.

I stand correct......what the hell did they do in the Finals ?

And I won't be wrong about Nelson, the kid can play but he needs more seasoning. He won't make the squad.

tugs wrote:so he's now officially signed, as well as this other guy. as per wiretap:

The Los Angeles Lakers have signed Greg Somogyi and Reeves Nelson to contracts.

Somogyi, a 7-3 center out of UC Santa Barbara, played all four years for the Gauchos where he posted career averages of 3.5 points, 2.9 rebounds and 1.5 blocks in 12.2 minutes.

Nelson, a 6-8 forward out of UCLA, was also a member of the 2012 Lakers Summer League team where he averaged 4.0 points and 5.3 rebounds in 16.3 minutes of play.


who is this Somogyi guy and why would they be interested in him?

could this Reeves kid play any wing? they already have a plethora of bigs.

Hes 7'3. Thats about it.
