Young Sticking Around?

[TruSkool]

You know, Shaq, Kobe, Magic, Kareem, Worthy, all need role players.

most of our current players could be legit key backup for contenders

Jordan Farmar, Jordan Hill, Chris Kaman, Jodie Meeks. thats it for me.

If any team makes a good offer early enough in free agency I think they have a solid chance of getting Young.. Same goes for Hill & Meeks.. We'll likely be seeing how things play out with higher profile FA's & potential trades using our cap space before we think about retaining any of our free agents.

BONAfied scorer. A lot of peeps here were complaining for the past seasons that we needed a killer scorer off the bench. Well here he is.

Soooo, Shut up Laker Nerds and take your medicine!

Agreed. Meeks, Henry, Hill, Young could all be legit rotation players on Championship teams off the bench.

So what are we talking here? If he could be had for 3 years $12M, would that be too much?

He would be a steal at 4M a year. The open market will determine his value though, and I'm sure someone will give him more than we're prepared to though

Nate Robinson, Jodie Meeks, Nick Young, Jordan Hill and a big like Kosta Koufos/Ian Mahimi/Chris Andersen would make a hell of a second unit!

Add a capable coach, Andrei Kirilenko, health Kobe and Pau and Dante Exum starting PG and you've got yourself a contender.

Missing a couple impact players in the starting lineup to make us a contender.
