Free Agent Guards List - that may sign for the MLE

[SniperHawk10]

Please bring in mike miller Apart from this, also blake or felton (although i don't believe he will sign for the MLE)

Also i still believe allen will want and will make more then the MLE this year

I think Foye is a really good fit for the Triangle. He's kind of been stuck in mediocrity, but he has a lot of the perfect attributes for it. He's a low percentage shooter from the floor, but he has a good three-pointer and his numbers from the line suggest he's much better than he's showed in that department.

Defense definitely an issue though, but I think he's a more ambitious and better fit than some of the other names we've been hearing.

[Optms]

Perhaps he was just a bad fit in Washington I wonder. Most of the time I just doubt it. The Lakers are better of pursuing Felton, Blake or even Livingston. Foye is utter garbage. Stay away FO.

[Slava]

I don't thjink Mitch is taking anyone seriously until he hears Phil's decision and if Phil does retire I'd expect the new coach to have a major input regarding transactions.

I agree, Foye would make a decent backup but not a starter. The problem is he isnt efficient and he has no midrange shot and its either chugg threes or take it to the hoop, not a great passer.

He probably wants something around 3 mil and if thats the case I rather go after Blake, Rid, Or JJ.

Ill pass on Foye.

[KB89]

miller please and bell and resign shannon( if willing to take min)

Opting out of a 2 million dollar contract for the minimum probably doesn't sound too appealing to Brown.

[popeye64821]

hmmm i donno i guess....i doubt he'd sign for minimum though, because i always see him at the branchbrook park summer league games ( one the best summer leagues in the country) with chains and cars, i dont think the mid level would be enough to support his habbits....oh yeah and ummm he's from newark (trust me i live in newark) he's probably a head case anyways and will just go wherever the most money is.....it's just sad that he had soo much potential, but now that i'm thinking about it....yeah i agree i kinda don't want him to mess up the bench even more, unless we get a tmac and just let him bring the ball up the court.....

[popeye64821]

tony you think when kobe starts to decline (later on in his career of course) that we can/should bring in oj? i think he's a poor mans version of kb24

[chefy]

I think the mle would be $6 million for this season.

split it for miller and blake

vet's min for kurt thomas

bynum, thomas
gasol, odom
artest, walton
kobe,miller
blake,fisher

[dockingsched]

man those are some TURRIBLE pg options

[TonyMontana]

man those are some TURRIBLE pg options

Boykins, Pargo etc............. I thought most of these guys retired??

[laduane1]

Lakers do not want to add any money. They want to get rid of LO and anyone who is making money that is not KB and PG.

I really dont know brah I think there is only one Kobe just like one MJ and one Shaq etc etc, but honestly I wouldnt even want to think about that right now. Lets enjoy him and get a few more chips and worry about his replacement when we get to that point.

I have a feeling that Lamar might be on his way out this year. Call me crazy but I think we will shop him around either now or by the trade deadline.

sensible spending

[chefy]

farmar, brown, powell, mbenga are all gone

how are we going to replace all of them without using the full MLE?

[It_Was_Typed]

Foye or Livingston.

[Mamba Venom]

Do we get a discount for getting them a ring?

Miller MLE

Fish & Critt min

Brown 3 mil

[KingLakers]

If Shannon is resigned there won't be no Miller or Bell. If that happens all I can see the Lakers doing is signing Livingston for the minimum.Basically this is how I see the Lakers roster coming out.
PG. Fisher(2yrs 7m), Livingston(3yrs 3m)
SG. Kobe, Brown(3yrs 10.5m), Sasha
SF. Artest, Ebanks(rookie minimum), Walton
PF. Pau, Lamar, Caracter (rookie minimum)
C. Bynum, Young C (minimum)

[The_Commish]

how much is T-Mac asking for?

what do you guys think of Iverson? he said he wanted to play again this season.
im positive he would only take the minimum, since i believe thats what he took with Memphis and Philadelphia last year
