Apparently the Bucks are looking to trade him. What do you think? We are in need for another defensive minded player, and he fits the role. Dadzuric is a terrific rebounder and should do wonders for us on defense. What do you think?
This would lead to a serious conflict of interest for yours truly. Who do you think the Lakers would send for him?

What do you think? </div> Gadz is decent, but he has an ugly contract. After watching the last few games the Lakers are in desperate need of a more aggressive defender/slasher. The Lakers are playing soft and taking far too, many jumpshots instead of getting points in the paint. It's frustrating to watch and the lack of shots falling effects the intensity on defense. The only physical player for us right now is Turiaf, but he's always getting caught in foul trouble because our guards are gambling and putting Turiaf out of position. They expect Turiaf to defend two players.

The Bucks are in rebuilding stage, so I was under the impression that they would like to free up some cap space. Anyways, I had no idea he had a huge contract, so I guess I'm now kind of against the idea of bringing him in. Although we are still in desperate need of a rebounder
I think we should atleast wait 'til Mihm is back and see how he plays before mentioning him in trades. He did say he had a chance of coming back before the season ended.

There's no guarentee what type of player he'll be like after missing more than a year of basketball. He most likely won't even have much of an impact this season. Sure, it would be nice to have another big man on the bench, but if we have a chance to get someone decent in return, we must trade him. His contract runs out after this season anyways, so we could always resign him in free agency

Been pretty absent minded lately.
LAL don't need Gadzuric Bynum is progressing, Mihm will eventually be back, Kwame will be back before Mihm and Turiaf is doing ok

But seriously, this team has a starting five that features 32 year old Ruben Patterson, and then up-and-comers Mo Williams, Mike Redd, Charlie Villanueva and Andrew Bogut. Not to mention 6th man Charlie Bell, who's 25. I don't want a bunch of expiring contracts, because that just means Larry Harris will overspend again. The Lakers have honestly no one that I want. The Bucks need a steady, veteran hand as a backup 1, a banger inside, or, most importantly, a wing defender.
If you think Kwame is clumsy........Gadzuric makes Kwame look like Jerry Rice ... imagine Kwame and Gadzuric in the game together, geeessssh, no thank you
