He can't even hit open jumpers or free throws anymore. Lakers fans are going to be dissapointed if they're expecting anything more besides having jamison sit on the bench and keep it warm.

Shot 34% from 3 while making 1.5...I think he's exactly what the Lakers need. And I'd bet my nuts his FG and 3P % go up this year.

Playing for the crap Cavs is different than playing for a Ring with the Lakers. Better players around him, less load to carry and Nash has a affect on other players %. He will bring out the best out of Jamison.

I know Cleveland was bad last year but he did average 17 ppg. Jamison is a good lockerroom guy and will provide some scoring off the bench for LA, who had no bench last season. He will probably play 12-15 mins a game. I don't see how anyone can have issue with this signing. Some of you make it sound like he will be the starting PF and the Lakers just signed him to a max deal :lol:

Jamison is and has always been a complete joke who inflates his stats on horrendous teams.

He has not been efficient since he came off the bench for Dallas, what... 10+ years ago?

The guy is way past his prime, and even then he was pretty garbage.

Getting Dwight will single handedly offset the oldness of this team anyway

obviously you never watched the Lakers bench last season and who he's replacing at the PF position. not that i blame you, who would want to watch the most awful bench in the history of the NBA.

He avg. almost 33mins a game last season. In his defense, he won't be asked to do that in LA which could lead to being more effective than what some think.

He is a Wizards fan. He would know better than anyone else that Jamison has made a living of padding his stats on terrible teams.
