    I know this wouldn't be a trade but I was thinking it might would be a pretty good idea if the Lakers traded fo Toni Kukoc. He was never a NBA Superstar but he did play for the Championship Chicago Bulls so he knows the Triangle offense really well. Yeah I know the guy is getting there in age but from what I heard and saw from some highlights on ESPN he did a solid job in helping the bucks return to the post season this year. Anyways what do you guys think. Would bringing toni to the Lakers be a good idea?

    Yeah and it also mean Kobe wouldn't have to take as many shots with Toni's long range jumper. I'd trade Deavon George and maybe a second rounder for him. What do you think?

    He's a bit old, and not even good enough to start as Nemesis said.I dont think he's worth it unless we trade something worth losing.

    George > KukocI wouldn't give them Devean and a 2nd. Devean is a better defender as well.

    All Toni Kukoc can do at this point is pass the ball...he's really aging...

    I wouldn't give up S*** for him. He's too old, can barley shoot. He should be retired by now.

    As a Lakerfan I wouldn't mind. He can hit the 3. And Phil probably wants him because he can bring in the same experience Harper did.Just nothing over vet min. though.
