    Spanouliss' contract offer is definitely acceptable, considering the fact that Anthony Parker and Jorge Garbojosa got signed for $3 million/year. Spanouliss' youth and shooting will help the team, let's bring him on board!

    I like the JLIII and vspan deals. We still have majority of our MLE left. the juwan deal is only good b/c were unloading his contract. What can the lakers give us that will be more valuable to the team than Juwan is.

    I like Juwaun but if LA would take him off of our hands and our pockets I'd love it.

    so i watched the video. v-span looks a lot like manu ginobili on his drives with those long strides... too bad his teammates can't finish. [​IMG]

    Look at Kwame what do you see? He is a rebounder a shot blocker a defender and sometimes may even be able to pop a mid ranged jumper like he did when he had those 20 point games

    i don't see anything the Lakers can give us. Howard is old, but his midrange game is something that we need. Hayes has absolutley no midrange game, and Novak is one dimensional.

    No way i'd want Kwame. He's more or less the same as stromile in terms of being athletic, has potential, but is inconsistent/lacks work ethic, BUT he gets paid more than him. Can't believe the lakers actually traded butler and atkins for him.

    I'd take Kwame anyday over Juwan. He's young, and he is SLOWLY improving. I doubt they would trade him anyway so I'm wondering, who do the Lakers have that we would possibly want for Juwan?

    True..but Kwame couldn't hit the side of a warehouse, let alone an open jumpshot. Howard's midrange game is his best attribute.

    Now if its Juwan for Kwame then i'd go for that. He's the lesser of 2 evils. But I wish Juwan was traded instead of Stromile for battier... Either way, Juwan is old and is a liability.

    Kwame sucks... Juwan is way better.. Juwan has a consistent mid range shot..IMO..

    Kwame can physically take a playoff pf and rebound and block and play good d on posts.
