Looks Like Sasha Has.........Checked Out 

Post#1 » by DEEP3CL » Thu Apr 1, 2010 4:51 am

OK for years some of us here have complained and straight up bitched about how we want Sasha gone. Well looks like this recent road trip has sealed his fate, we know he had the blow up with B.Shaw in Oklahoma. We all know this dude is grily and pouts, which leads to him being in his own world as we see it.

So after seeing quotes from Sasha like, "When they're winning, I'm not playing. When they're losing, I'm not playing. When they're down by 20, I might get three minutes."

That's 3 times he used that word in that sense. Which tells me he's out. I always knew that when Sasha left here he was going to be put out on his ass.

Good riddance.

Yep, a bit sad because even as a douche we could use his hustle and shooting that he was starting to get back, but wow man... you can't be bitching and fighting the coaching staff when you haven't done **** in over a year.

I wish they'd just cut him, eat the contract so he can't get another ring. Sign the lanky kid from training camp, we could use the energy and hustle.

I wouldn't be complaining if I collected over 10 million in a span of two years for doing pretty much nothing. Dude needs to shut up and prove to the coaching staff that he is worth the minutes, or just shut up and be happy your still in the NBA earning MLE money

Makes me depressed to think we traded Toney Douglas to save some cap room, but we're WASTING roster spots on Sasha and Morrison.
Thank you, Phil.

You know chefy... i think she could provide better service for the amount money sasha is getting paid to do absolutely nothing.

ok seriously:
I knew we should have kept Kelati because i knew outside shooting was going to be an issue. We have a team with NO consistently good shooters (except kobe). Sasha cannot argue that he is not needed on this team. He just had to prove he can fill the team's biggest void (even bigger than the PG situation as someone noted on this board). But...This is the route he chooses instead?

Mitch! Ship this sorry ass out of here plse! Let someone else reprogram the broken machine. We need real 3pt threats!

This guy has a lot of nerve. He gets an overblown contract for his talents - based soley on one good year. After signing this contract, he suddenly can't knock down an open shot to save his life despite being given every opportunity to be the marksmen on this team. B-shaw probably told him "man I could still play and do what you're doing for half the price!"

Skip this M.F I hate this DOUCHE BAG. He needs to get cut since he isnt worth ish. His national coach knew he sucked and thats why he got cut from the team and even then he tried to bash his coach and his teammates. I mean come on, apparently he wasn't good enough for the Slovenia National Team so how can he be good for the NBA defending champs.

I mean this fool made a clip dedicated to this loser. Its actually pretty funny.

Unlike the rest of you, I feel bad for the dude. His confidence has to be at ground-zero right now. He knows that he isn't worth his contract, he knows that everyone else knows that. He wouldn't hit the water if he fell out of a boat, as far as his shot is concerned, and he knows his team is doing just fine without him. He also knows his coach isn't fond of him, and S. Brown will always be in front of him in the rotation. I hope LA unloads him so he can at least attempt to resurrect his shattering career. Long story short, it has to suck to be that guy right now.

Are you serious? I suspect you're joking (??) i dunno...

But... buy out this contract? NO NO NO.... that's a fat expiring deal right there. Hey It's nobody's fault that he asked for it but couldn't live up to it. Lakers should not eat the contract just to do him any damn favors. sit his ass out of rotation and keep looking for a way to swap that expiring for a serious shooter.

An expiring contract is great to have at the deadline.

But why didnt we trade AMMO + Sasha for Hini

Sasha being an expiring next year wouldn't do us any good. With Kobe's extension I am pretty sure Buss will do everything possible to not take on any more guaranteed contracts.

And it makes no sense to buyout Sasha, make him wait another year to collect his undeserved 5.5 mil. He's on the book whether we buy him out or not.
