Then we would have a Cook, a Mailman, a Glove, and a Baker on the team. Maybe we can add a Worm, too. I wouldn't mind the Lakers taking a look at Baker. We could use another big man who can score in the post, and he would be an upgrade over Ho-Grant and Sampson.

Sure, there's some drama going around Lakerland and maybe he could fit in, but I'd still like to see our young guys get the time that they have been lately like Walton, Medvedenko, Cook. Even when Malone comes back, they will see their playing time put down a bit, and adding Baker would add little room for them. He would definetley be an upgrade over Grant, but I don't even see him playing much anymore. I'd rather see Slava and Walton, they bring more to the table, without any trouble. It's worth a look, but I doubt it happens. Hmmm, even with what I just said, The Worm sounds interesting. I wouldn't mind seeing him in a Laker uni.... I would definetley prefer him over Baker.
Vin Baker is an interesting name out there, but I doubt he ends up a Laker. I much rather see the combo of Medvedenko/Walton/Cook than him seeing time. Plus, when Malone returns he wouldn't see much time. Another team would definetley get more use out of him. But RODMAN, that sounds like an interesting name. Even with what I just said, I wouldn't mind seeing the Worm in a Laker uni this year. :biggrin2:
