Turner's a cheap suggestion as a possible facilitator next to Kobe.

Lance Stephenson would be even more interesting. He's looked great being a play-maker for Indiana, his size, and athletic ability, along with his three-ball would give L.A. a huge advantage with a 6-5 long-armed guard out there.

Lance has issues and will garner a big contract $8-$10... Turner, Thabo & Ariza are better values and teammates... Lance had a great year but it was a contract year... He shot 13% from 3's two years ago... Buy low...

On another front, Smart is dropping in the draft because of mental issues... His prior coaches are saying he is a headcase... Scary thought... Lakes LOVE Vonleh... He played well at the workout...

Here's my list

Reggie Jackson

I feel like he really showcased his 3 point shot this series. We already knew he has the potential to be an under control form of Russ, but these spot up 3s takes his skill set to a new level in terms of potentially fitting with Kobe. Not too sure how we'd get him though.

Mario Chalmers

We know he can shoot 3s and play defense. He's actually a great steals option on fantasy. I think he's done a lot more stuff off handoffs and pick and rolls this season.

Kyle Lowry

I highly doubt he's going to leave the Raptors, but whatever.

Jodie Meeks

Is a great fit with Kobe. If you don't want to retain him, please explain why. For the teams that want to draft Garry Harris, just sign Jodie. Ya'll can then spend your pick on a big man.

Jeremy Lin?


I've started to have way much more respect for Chalmers. Lowery is also a good option as well

How about take a shot at the Spurs role players
when they are up as free agents?

No much thinking involved.

Green, Belinelli, Lenard,

Try to get them when available.
