Lakers need 2 swing players. Legit swing not some lil ass guard like Meeks.

Like I posted in the Barnes thread, my preference is Garcia > Del3ino > Barnes. Garcia is also an excellent defender while Del3ino like to throw up a lot of 3s. If we can't get Garcia, I would not mind Delfino.

Thing is Garcia is really the one of the bunch who would have to take a steep salary cut. I like him but were talking about cutting salary to 1/5

He was signed to a MLE contract before his injury but he played himself well against Durant to a good paycheck. If I was to make a phone call offering the mini MLE, it'd be him. Hopeful call at least.

Would it be hilarious if we get Delfino AND keep Dwight? :lol:

But yea, we're not keeping Dwight. :wink:

Delfino can shoot lights out from 3, but he gets streaky. Some games he'll hit 5 threes, but then the next 1/5. He's also a little undersized for bigger players at SF.

Not that interested in him, but I do like that the lakers are attempting to fortify the bench,

Not yet. Hopefully he can be had with the MMLE. He'd basically be the starting SF if he signs.

Carlos Delfino has agreed to a two-year, $6.5 million deal with the Milwaukee Bucks. The deal includes a team option for a third year that would increase the total amount to $10 million.

Delfino will join O.J. Mayo as a wing acquisition for the Bucks.

Delfino averaged 10.6 points per game for the Houston Rockets last season.
