Javaris Crittenton

Memphis has already stated that they won't keep all three of their young PG's. This is a guy I would love to have on this team . A 6'5 PG who can defend with alot of upside . He played some high school ball with Dwight . Seems like a good fit for us .

Arroyo, Fran and picks for Crittenton and Warrick?

You know they cant package Crittenton with any other players until the off season. Recent player trade restriction.

JJ Reddick for Crittenton....it works under ther salary cap and we can swing it now!

It would be great to grab Javaris, problem is I want him because we can then play JJ at the two with him.....so I don't think I want to trade Redick for him.

I am down for that. Then they could package Miller for picks and expiring. Would be smart for them but after watching the Gasol thing go down that wont happen. :nonono:

problem is it would be another Redick situation, b/c he is young and we have other players at the position

but if he is truly good at defense might give him the upper edge

I haven't seen much of his game to say for myself

Hi guys, Lakers fan here.

Crittenton has a lot of potential but as of right now, he can't contribute. He makes way too many rookie mistakes out there. IMO, Crittenton isn't a sure thing like a Chris Paul when he was drafted. He can easily be a bust as well as a good starting PG.

He doesn't have a great jumpshot but that can change. He's good at getting to the basket so maybe he and Dwight can team up in the future like a baby Kobe&Shaq combo.

IMO, you guys should take the risk and get him because Dwight is still young. Have him come off the bench after a veteran point guard like we are doing with Fisher and Farmar.

He's not available, I hope. You can get Lowry, tho.

I dont think he is available. In theory he is what they MEM got for Gasol. *blushes*

There not trading him. Especially not for JJ Redick. His upside is a Baron Davis like player. Really until your sure who going to be a star there is no reason to trade any of them.
