Lakers talking to Anthony Tolliver 

Post#1 » by moonpie » Thu Aug 8, 2013 9:34 pm

Tolliver said the Lakers recently called his agent, Larry Fox, to express interest. He said talks are still preliminary but he would have definite interest if the Lakers turn out to be a serious option.

“Obviously, to have a chance to play for a franchise like that, you’d have to think long and hard about that,’’ the forward told FOX Sports Florida.

While he waits to learn more about the Lakers' situation, other teams on Tolliver’s list are Charlotte, Utah and Chicago. Tolliver said the Bobcats have made a contract offer (for the minimum) and he visited Charlotte last Monday

Sounds like a must-have...

If you recall, Tolliver, 28, is the guy who got the ball rolling on Derrick Rose's injury-filled 2011-12 campaign by diving at the Bulls' star point guards legs and injuring his ankle.

Tolliver is also pretty terrible at basketball.

Dont think i can handle another scrub on the team.
Like everyone mentioned above, he's probably just using us.

Not a huge fan... I am still waiting on LO to sign but looks like it may not happen... Appears Hill (28 minutes), Pau (10 minutes) & Johnson (10 minutes) may hold down the PF spot this season...
