Just sayin a fresh start is needed for Jose and Lin both players struggling with current squads and garbage for garbage with Nash and bargs who will both be waived though I wouldn't be surprised if brags miraculously is better.. I think he is afraid of nyc media!
Also brings back linsanity a fan favorite to help fill out the stands and bring the tv ratings back up
Thats actually a good idea but LA's draft to suns is protected and you don't want to screw that up by injecting two starters and somehow they get better.
Im not thinking Bargnani is allergic to NY media but a rash of bad luck. Dude is not as bad as depicted on these pages. neither is Calderone, but he is not making any arguement easy!!
Yes indeedy, let's take on $17 million for an invisible 39 year old PG who is phyically unable to perform, and a grossly overpaid one-hit wonder who'll most likely have a nervous breakdown if he's ever traded back here.
Our 5 win coach could probably outplay both of these guys right now. For only 5 million.

+1 - I would sooner see Galloway get extended minutes. At this point Lin has reached his ceiling. We need to look in a different direction.
Lin gives us a starting pg who gets to the hole & ft line as caldron can be Kobe's bitch and a vet pg that be on the same page as Kobe ... As well as become a back up mentor for there young players
The point isn't to keep Lin he's expiring and this trade opens up more cap space by getting rid of Jose awful contract
That is a great trade for us but I doubt Lakers want to take on Calderons contract.
Kobe could practice his Italian too with Bargnani around. Why the hell not? Throw Phil a bone and take Calderón off or hands. Thanks Jeanie
Also I don't think Jose = more wins for them this year but offers them a vet back up to guide the young players ala Jason Kidd on the Knicks his last year

Not that I believe that but it's a good selling point

What are you talking about? Bargs will help them lose more games!

I believe it. You should sell cars
Why would the Lakers trade 2 expirings for Calderon for 3yrs?

Because Kobe needs to brush up on his Italian and the Lakers think Marc Gasol wants to play for his brothers team. They need calderon because he is his best friend. Don't question it just believe it.

One season after this one I believe. 7.5 mil per year. We almost half way thru this year.
Bargs is about getting healthy. Bargs healthy is 15-6 player.
Just my take. This guy has been a huge disappointment for the team in regards to the cost to get him, his on court time very limited, and as a trade asset.
Hope I think was KNicks would muddle around the middle of the pack and he'd gave decent trade potential.

Well for two & a half years and the lakers are in need of more veterans there way too young caldron can help them attract m Gasol to play with him and Kobe, Randal I'd even sweeten the deal by adding Aldrich since there in dire need of a back up center. Plus if they get a high pick and draft a pg caldron would be a perfect mentor

Yeah. I hear the Ford Pinto is a great deal! Maybe Jose could teach young players how to miss layups AND jumpshots, just like Jkidd! Spill the Pepsi!
