Apparently Jordan Farmer has agreed to a 2 year 4.2m contract
As a Laker fan never thought he'd consider going to the cross town rivals considering his much self confessed love for the Lakers.
Diaw will resign with the spurs for $22.5m over 3 years. No surprise there.

The Lakers might struggle to put together a roster!
If melo won't go there they will be worse than this year!

Guess Collison is out the door at the Clippers. Not sure why so surpirsed about this, its the NBA, money talks and players have an allegiance the their families and agents...
Yeah Collison already agreed to sacramento that's why clips picked up farmar.
Mean Thomas could be coming to lakers which is an upgrade by a mile!
Could have starting line up of
Thomas
Kobe
Melo
Randle
Gasol
Just need some defence!

The Lakers ain't making the playoffs in the west with Thomas @ the 1.
If Melo goes to LA they need depth and key guys off the bench....they are in no better spot than NY so might as well stay there.

Melo unlikely to join the Lakers as is Gasol to stick around. Lakers in for a long season in my opinion...

No Melo to LA PLEASE!!!!!!
Put the que in the rack LA and wait till next years free agents, Love, Rondo, Aldridge etc.
LA will struggle to make the playoffs with or without Melo. He is just a glorified And1 player.

Also how lame are the clips?
Do they think they need every X Laker?

Melo is a glorified AND1 player..... Who scores 30 a game as the only real scoring threat on his team, taking the blunt of opposition defense every night....
Im not a huge Melo fan, but the guy is a gun.
Why isn't Thomas a good option for the right price?
I agree no melo and hold off until next off season. Lakers may squeeze into playoffs with melo coming but not a contender. Wait til two years time when they have plenty of cap space!
