In a Dwight trade? He's still balling.

Just a year ago, he averaged 19 points in only 30 minutes playing with Nash. Shot 42% on 3s too.

He can return to that kind of production with Nash and the Lakers in my opinion.

Come on Buss, pay the tax.

I don't think taking Jason Richardson is a problem. Most likely more to the deal and negotiations.

Orlando is just dragging everyone through the mud, as they should. D12 is a top 5 player, they should try to push everyone to the limit to see what they can get.

I read somewhere that it's because he f****d Nash and they had an Asian baby...
Jay McLaed reported it.

it's probably got more to do with Dwight's unwillingness to resign in LA than jason richardson's contract. i hope a deal gets done today, i'm so tired of these rumors.

I would love Richardson here, as for Howard I'm over him all together now. He would do well here with Bryant, Gasol, Nash and Richardson but let him rot in Orlando.

We need a scorer off the bench.

There are only 2 seasons left to go all in. Then the penalties quadruple. Might as well spend it while Jerry Buss is alive to enjoy it.
Lakers are 22-3 in OT last 6 seasons:Kobe best OT closer!

It's our money. We watch games on TV which advertisers pay for commercials. We pay for tickets. We pay for merchandise.

The Lakers have made plenty of money off of me and you.

Wasn't that Leo, not JRich?

As for the OP, yes. With Kobe and Ron, JRich would be wing b/u for 30 mpg, 6th moty candidate imo.

You sound stupid, its not ur money. You have the right to not support them just as much as you choose to support them.
