Another chucker who doesn't play defense?

A million times better than Francisco Garcia.
I'm on board with this move.

They badly need a bench SF to come in and score. Split the money between him and an athletic SF.

I'd rather have Dorrell Wright. Is he even available?

He much better than Jojo Meeks as well.
If we somehow land this dude it will be definitely an upgrade to our bench.
I still really want Matt Barnes as well

Young was one of my first targets in my early offseason plans. I think he's definitely got to be a top target

Well I watched both of these guys since college . Louisville and USC.
From what I've witnessed Nick Young has a more all around/athletic game than Francisco not to forget 3-4 years younger as well. No pun intended

Nick is a gunner but he would fortify the bench. In limited minutes he could shine and be a momentum changer.

These are all SGs/SFs, not SFs as we expected. Mitch supposedly has surprises for Dwight. Let's see what the surprises are. My guess is Monta Ellis somehow.

at least i like the wing players the lakers are looking into ... i'd take anyone from young, barnes, garcia, buddinger and delfino ... if we can land 2 then it's better ...

I'm good with any of Barnes/Garcia/Budinger/Delfino etc but definitely do not want Nick Young. Just not a fan of the low IQ chucker types who plays like a Kobe/Jordan but doesn't have nearly half the talent of them.

I agree. We desperately need some scoring off the bench.

And this team lacked scoring, lacked anyone who could get a shot without a pick aside from Kobe, lacked a guy with swingman size ... We need a scoring chucker from the perimeter to be able to compete
