    I think this trade is a slam dunk for the L*kers. I'm no Stache fan, but if there's one coach that can bring out the best in him, it's Jackson.

    It's true. The used condom might fit Jackson perfectly. Just a matter of trying it on.

    HORRRRRRIBLE TRADE by LA, and actually another good trade by the 'Cats.
    Rad-man should have been used better by the Lakers. He was money from 3 and without Bynum, wouldn't you want as much offense and big man help as possible?
    Stache is done. He'll be out of the league in 2 years. No D, no jumper, no athleticism.
    And did I really hear Rizzle say he was excited about Shannon Brown's defensive potential? LOLZ..just another first round bust.

    Hello darkness, my old friend
    It's just a salary dump for LA. They're paying the luxury tax, so this saves them double Radmanovic's salary when Morrison and Brown expire, which is at the end of this season, I believe.

    Considering they barely use Radmanovic anymore, this was a nice escape from his contract.

    One more thing, just to make sure you guys realize this...Morrison and Brown could literally not play ONE game for the Lakers and this still would be a good trade for the Lakers. At worse case scenario this is good for salary cap reasons. This is $6.9 mil the Lakers get off one year earlier with Morrison vs Vlad.

    Luke, Kobe, Ariza, LO can all play the SF...Vlad is no loss at all
