    Number 9? Lakers first rounder, Jordan Farmar.

    <div class="quote_poster">Quote:</div><div class="quote_post">Farmar was the Lakers' go-to guy at the Southern California Summer Pro League, and he responded with a 16.1 points per game scoring average on .520 field goal percentage. Throw in 4.4 assists per game for good measure and you have a point guard who could compete for playing time on the Lakers next season. </div>

    Also,

    <div class="quote_poster">Quote:</div><div class="quote_post">At the Southern California Summer League, Lakers rookie guard J.R. Pinnock posted an impressive 14.0 points, 8.0 rebounds and 3.4 assists per game. ... </div>

    Pinnock > Mckie

    Because, believe it or not, Aaron McKie is somewhat valuable. He's has an expiring contract that we can trade away by the deadline. If he isn't traded by the deadline, expect us to cut him and sign someone before they playoff roster cutoff.

    Well, considering Mitch Kupchak is our GM, we will not make a move at the deadline. Book it.

    I dunno... he seems like he should be higher than that... his numbers look better than Brewer's, Bargnani's, and besides for points, Ager's as well.

    I agree with the Pinnock thing. I really hope he ends up on the team next season....I just don't know how he's going to get tehre unless we ship McKie away. I suppose we could always sign him and designate him for assignment down in the D-League.

    Farmer look's like a great player, he might need to work on his conditioning, but he looks like a good player to compliment Kobe, I wouldn't be surprised if Farmer takes the starting role away from Smush a little into the regular season...
