How much is Sasha reall worth?

how much would you sign him for? I personally sign him for the vet min. even though he's not a vet, nor has he even earned the rights to be called a vet.

Well he's making the MLE, giving how much he was coming alone it seemed like a fair deal at the time.

$10 per hour now. When he got his deal it was decentish though I always cringe when any one-year break-out player get any type of substantial raise.

If he plays solid D and hit 40% from 3 point land and gives Kobe a good rest, he is worth the MLE.
Last year was a terrible year for him. He fouled too much and did not hit the 3 with consistency.
Let's hope he has a better year next season.

Can he cut the hair already? headband or not, if it weren't for the stubble i would think we had a wnba player riding the bench

The guy makes 5 mil per you would figure he needs to contribute more...if not ship him out. Who's better Sasha or Morrison?

Hi Guys (Twolves fan here, not on this board much)

I actually have Sasha on a fantasy league (its a keeper league), what do you expect him top put up this season? He was fairly down last year but do you think Kobe will want more rest this year which will allow for Sasha to play some more minutes?

Anyway, just wondering about projections on his numbers.

Cheers for the info guys

he was injured at the beginning of the season so his minutes got cut.

he never got into a rythm because of it. his shooting was off mainly because he tried to do too much instead of just being who he is -a spot shooter.

the coaches should have limited his play to just shooting and not encourge him to be a slasher and dunk on the city of Sacramento (although that was fun to watch, admit it!) or a facilitator and play the hexagon offense.

this year he will be drifferent. he will play for his country in the Euro turney in Sep and will have a full preseason camp. the machine will be worth the MLE again! book it.

The fact he is only signed through 2011 is his biggest asset. As teams try to manuever for cap/tax space he'll become a tradeable target. Glad he didn't get the Luke 6 yr plan

His contract is for another 3 years dude, what are you talking about signing him now for? He's already signed.

I have a feeling that Sasha will bounce back and earn the money hes making this season. We need him to hit the 3 when he gets those nice open looks because the opposing team's attention is somewhere else due to the fact of how stacked this team is. It was great to see teams having to actually cover Sasha pretty good because of how dangeous he was from outside. Last season many Laker fans were expecting Sasha to come into the season improved and to make a name for himself as one of the best shooters in the NBA that season. But he really disappointed us.

Sasha please cut your god damn hair. Not only will it make you look like a man but it won't distract you during games. That dumbass hair is so long it probably gets in your face. Everytime I watched a Laker game and Sasha was in you would always see him fixing his dumbass hair. No wonder why he wasn't productive.

At this time last year? No qualm with his contract.
Right now? Kupchak should have let him take the offer from Europe.

Assuming they can't dump him, we can only hope he finishes the last 2 years the way he was when he "earned" the new contract.
