To Gasol or to not Gasol

Whether you like it or not Gasol, World Peace, Dwight, Clark, Kobe, Nash will be here this season. No major deal will be made.

However with our injuries to the bigs, and our lack of help at the 3 I could see a minor move being made.

We could use a cheap vet big- ala Lou Amundson- while Gasol nurses his injury. Lou would be an upgrade to Sacre. He can rebound, hustle, has experience with Nash and coach, and is a great pick and roll defender.

However I think we could use a backup SF. Someone who can shoot, and play defense as a role player. Ebanks isn't that guy, and World Peace is streaky. He need someone with good IQ, and shoot, and hold his own on defense. Who can fit that role?

shooters..

kobe can facillate and get the guys open shots, but they still need guys to knock them down.

MWP making a wide open look is a crap shoot

Not a bad thread but such questions probably belong in the trade thread.

Trade Duhon and Ebanks.

i would like to see us pick up scott machado and get rid of morris or ebanks.

id like to see us pick a big man from the d-league and never play scare again.

Trading Duhon will be considered as a big move.
Sign K-Mart or another bigman.

Sign Lou Amundson

Delonte West. We are terribly in need of a guard that can penetrate and break down defenses, as well as play defense. Aaron Brooks would be great as well.

Need more people to create their own shot as well.

Keith Benson?

We really need an atheletic 3.
I would have loved for us to go after Ariza. But now that he is playing much better for the Wizards, I doubt they trade him away....

I don't know why FO hasn't done this yet, but I'd like for us to get LeBron over here. He could help out bench out. It's like they don't even see the simple moves!

I would do this or pick up Martin. Maybe even trade some of our PGs for shooters.

Sign Weat and Martin.
Cut Ebanks

Seriously if they are not going to give him any playing time, might as well cut him and replace him

Trade for Anthony Morrow...

He's getting no burn in ATL ,offer Morris + a 2nd round pick for him

Morrow's value is kinda low right now. This is might be the chance to make a move for him.

I think the Lakers are at the point they need to make major moves for the future. Bring in some youth who can develope. I mention before trading Artest for Beasley and Brown.

Deals for Amundson and Morrow would both be welcome.
