I'd pay very close to the max for even a 2nd-tier SF this offseason. The way I see it, we are decent at every other position just by adding cheap...
Exactly my thought, and I prefer a big that bangs inside and fights for boards.
Carroll sounds like a great fit for our team. We have enough ball-dominant players in Kobe, Clarkson, Randle, and possibly Okafor. @trodgers...
I've gone over this before, so I'll just say this.... I agree that a big's ability to 'stretch the floor' is a valuable asset. However, it is not...
So wait, who's a better signing, Carroll or Harris?
With all the talk about the front office prioritizing character, and our failed experiment with Dwight, I'm with @therealdeal and I cringe at the...
Agreed. I just want to point out that he added a crucial element to his game that he never would have developed in Memphis.... toughness. That...
There's no doubt that Towns is a better fit. I'd still take Okafor though because I feel he is a superior talent, and I also feel that a big's...
I'm not sure I can agree to that. I think the winning culture of the Lakers transformed him into a great player. Environment has a lot to do...
That too, but even pre-injury (and signing with the 76ers) I feel he never tapped his full potential with the Clips. Just like how Pau was rotting...
I don't think it's a matter of commitment. If Clarkson, Randle, and Okafor don't play up to our huge expectations, we aren't making the playoffs,...
I think there are a few things to consider. 1. Duncan/Robinson were seniors, Shaq was a junior, and Brand was a sophmore as rookies entering the...
He's been measured anywhere from 7'5" to 7'6.25" the last 2 years http://www.draftexpress.com/profile/Jahlil-Okafor-6469/
Most measurements have Okafor at 6'11" and he has a wingspan of 7'6" which will allow him to play just as big as Gasol who has a 7'3" wingspan....
Okafor and Towns are 'high floor high ceiling' prospects, so I'm not sure why we'd want to go 'low floor high ceiling' with Porzinga, but if we're...

Good article on West http://m.bleacherreport.com/articles/2021677-jerry-wests-son-ryan-carries-lakers-past-into-the-future-as-key-scout-for-la
I'm happy for him and I'm glad he's back.
That's my thought process too, but it's a high risk route to take, and I'm not sure why'd we do that when we'll have a longer window with Okafor.
