The Lakers always end up with these scenarios once every decade. In the late 70's they had to make a decision to keep either Adrian Dantley or Jammal Wilkes. Both were small forwards but their games were totally different. But Jerry West decision was easy, he traded Dantley to the Jazz because he like to also play the post but we had Kareem so that was the end of that.

Then the 80's brought the AC Green and Kurt Rambis deal, but some how they made that work for a while.

The 90's was Eddie Jones and Kobe...........we know how that ended.

Now we have Jordan and Javaris , right now J5 has the upper hand. I know management love Critt but they gotta make that decision again but I gotta feeling this one won't be so easy. It's going to come down to who Phil thinks he can win with long term.

Farmar reminds me an unpolished Mike Bibby, more than anyone else in the league...

We've barely seen Crittenton play, but he does seem to have the same style as Marbury...

+1 on the Mike Bibby comparison.

Sasha is like Kerr on steroids.

IMO, Farmar's man-defense has been really overrated...

I think we all agree that Crittenton has that same style and resemblance to ball dominant players like Francis & Marbury...
