Complete the Lakers Roster for Next Season

[BallsOut]

Option 1: Trade for Dwight Howard
1) Andrew Bynum, Darius Morris, World Peace for Dwight Howard and JJ Redick.
2) Sign Leandro Barbosa, Earl Watson, Grant Hill and Matt Barnes using veteran's minimums and mini MLE.
3) Ship Blake and Eyenga to a team for cash + future 2nd round picks.

PG: Nash | Watson | Goudelock
SG: Bryant | Redick | Goudelock
SF: Ebanks | Hill | Barnes
PF: Gasol | McRoberts
C: Howard | Hill | McRoberts


Option 2: Keep core and add pieces
1) Sign Leandro Barbosa, Earl Watson, Grant Hill and Matt Barnes using veteran's minimums and mini MLE.
2) Ramon Sessions (S&T), Metta World Peace to Dallas for Shawn Marion
3) Ship Ebanks, Blake, Morris, future 2nd round pick to Golden State for Dorrell Wright

PG: Nash | Watson | Goudelock
SG: Bryant | Barbosa | Goudelock
SF: Wright | Hill | Barnes
PF: Gasol | Marion | McRoberts
C: Bynum | Hill | McRoberts

I like option 2 since Barbosa, Hill and Marion are already proven players and have established chemistry with Nash since Phoenix days. I believe they would make a great second unit along with the young Jordan Hill. Which option do you like better? Which option makes them more competitive for a championship? Discuss.

Hinrich for the minimum?

[Hoiids]

Trade Pau for Ryan Anderson + JJ Reddick.
Much better options than those IMO

[RRR3]

Why dont you trade for lebron and durant whole you're at it?

[AMISTILLILL]

Bass isn't signing for the mini MLE. He opted out of the final year of his contract in Boston because he thinks he can get a starting gig and a salary in the ball park of $5-6 million a season elsewhere. Bass stood to make more than the mini MLE if he had just stayed in Boston and opted in.

Magic want/need picks for Dwight

lol @ giving up Redick and taking Artest

[No Evans!]

The Pacers would not want Ron Artest back.

[no pun intended]

I wish the Lakers got Barbosa. They really need his backcourt speed. Plus, he is one of Nash's closest friends.

I would like to believe that you are trolling, because if you are not than you are seriously delusional.

[PejaNowitzki]

Sign Hill and sign Jason Terry. Do a S&T for Aaron Brooks(PHX) and Kris Humphries.

I rarely agree with a Lakers fan who isn't SpecialQue but: this.

Jason Terry is a Celtic. Agreed in principle.

They're not getting Ron Artest back, they're getting World Peace.

[ImmortalD24]

Why would the Pacers take back Ron Artest? (Laughable).. as well as give up their young stud in Darren Collison?


BTW.. Pacers should start Darren. George Hill is a bum.
