Would be ideal, but difficult to get.

I suggested him earlier, but only if he's cheap.

Lakers have a 0% chance 2 get him he is a restricted free agent meaning you have to overpay 2 get him no point in doing so.

Do the Hawks still have rights to him?

i was under the impression the hawks have his rights and can match any offer.. but if we can get ahold of him, he could be a nice pick up for sure!

He left cuz of money no other reason. While i think he would be a great pick up the hawks will just match seeing how him for about the MLE is decent value so yeah they prob match it.

He's pimping the ish in the mean streets of Olympiakos. Why would he want to come to LA? :D

From what i've heard Olympiakos wants to get rid of him because he became more expensive because some tax laws changed in Greece. If he comes back he would be an RFA of the Hawks so he would tough to get.

It would be nice to sign him. I went to high school with him and I knew his younger brother and I really liked his game since high school.

Between Miller, Childress, and McGrady you would think we can get ourselves a real impressive backup swingman. Three-man rotation at SG/SF, just like PF/C.

I feel ya on that one. I think the Lakers have a legit shot at Miller and T Mac and if they really wanted to pursue Josh then they could get him. If he was willing to play for the MLE.

Would be nice to get a young player. With what he is making, he will not come to Lakers. Lakers want to shed money, not add money.

Lakers need a PG more than a soft wing player.
