Douthit was a regular on the Laker summer league team, but his game has yet to develop to NBA caliber. The Lakers no longer posses his rights after drafting him in the second round of the 2004 drat (56th overall).</div>

    No surprised. I kind of expected it. Next up? Aaron McKie!!!

    Let's hope so. He looked terrible the other night against the Sonics. Shammond better show us something in the next few games, I'm not sure he fits into this group of players. I'd rather stick with Pinnock and Green at this point.

    Exactly. McKie has shown absolutely nothing. Say what you want about his leadership, but the bottom line is, if he can't play and if he can't stay healthy, then he doesn't deserve to be on the roster. Hell, if we are keeping him for his "leadership," we might as well go out and sign Scottie Pippen to our squad and keep him on the bench for leadership. After all, Scottie has more rings, and is more familiar with the triangle. As for Shammond, he also showed close to nothing. The guy was absolutely terrible on defense, and unless somehow he drastically improves, I don't see a reason why he should be on the roster. Both Green and Pinnock outshined McKie and Shammond.

    So now we have one more to waive. My money is on Von Wafer...Between Von and McKie, McKie at least brings leadership, experience in practice.
    Von Wafer < McKie.

    Just to try them out. But I'm pretty sure they look slow and out of sync to be in the NBA.
