    I think it'll be his last three in the NBA.

    ESPN Radio said the 3rd was a player option so we'll have to wait and see

    Player option? I'm going to take a wild guess and say Fish exercising that in year 3.

    I hear it's 3 years worth around 10 million. I'll live I guess.

    That's good news. I still think he ends up in Miami though.

    I hope we target Matt Barnes if this doesn't go through. If not, I wouldn't mind having Shannon back either.

    I wouldn't mind either Bell or Barnes to get the last roster spot. Let's see if Kobe can close the deal with Raja.

    Kurt Thomas would be great for the vet's minimum if we can get him.

    I'd rather just resign DJ. I remember Kurt a couple years back when we faced San Antonio, and if my memory is correct, he was pretty much done. DJ played well this year when given the minutes, and when he was starting.

    Our roster would look like this if we sign those two.

    PG - Fisher/Blake
    SG - Kobe/Raja/Sasha
    SF - Artest/Luke/Ebanks
    PF - Gasol/Odom/Caracter
    C - Bynum/Thomas

    Marc Stein on twitter:

    Kobe has been chasing Bell hard, with phone calls before Wednesday's scheduled sitdown. But Lakers' best offer could only start at $1.8 mil (1hr ago)

    Sources say Raja Bell also had firm two-year offer from Chicago worth more than $8 million, but Jazz trumped Bulls, Lakers, etc. Link on way (16 mins ago)


    Looks like a done deal, 10 mill for 3 yrs with Utah for Raja Bell.

    You would think Bell would after a ring rather than more money at this stage of his career.

    TMac last I heard was close to signing with Miami.

    Maybe just a rumor though?!
