Rather rely on him than Hill since Dantoni may not play Hill a lot and Hill is injury prone. Kenyon could come here and that makes Hill expendable in a trade as another expiring

Before this last year, I thought KMart was washed up, but I have to admit, I was impressed with the way he played for the Knicks.
Hill is still in my view better, but I wouldn't mind having KMart on our bench

Because Pau as a PF doesn't work or win. He's actually a 2 way liability. He lacks e rename to be accounted for offensively even from the mid area. Defensively he's far too slow. Pau won and played well as a C with Odom as the PF. The Lakers last year were a top defensive team when Pau was out and Metta and Dwight were the 4 and 5.

If clark leaves, I'd love to have him. If clark stays, spend your money on an athletic wing player.

Clark is gone. If Pau stays and Dwight goes, I think we're pretty much calling it a season. There isn't a whole lot we can do without finding a trade for Pau.

I like Clark but, I won't lose any sleep over him leaving.
