Felton will be cut or told to go camp it out at Voodoo Donuts. Jamal apparently is staying.
They're both gone at the end of the year anyway. tank tank tank

I'm guessing LA was going to fleece Kahn with whatever deal that they offered, so I'm glad nothing happened

Warriors also got a 2nd round pick from Atlanta!
Yep. They need to cut at least two players. Bye Felton and Okur. They should cut another player and bring back Patty.

I'm not going to lie, I didn't want to see Fish actually traded, just benched. I love everything Fish did for the Lakers.
Gonna be weird seeing them compete for a title without him.
Not getting Beasley isn't a big deal. he isn't much better than Barnes and now the team might actually run.
Jordan Hill could take Murphy's minutes as the backup C...I hope.

What The Lakers get is almost as good as what they got rid of.
Got Sessions, Eyenga and Hill
Got rid of both 1sts, Fisher, Kapono and Luke Walton.

That's the plotline of practically every Minny trade to date.
Yeah, they can pay him the vet min just so he can hang around for a last season. I'm ok with this since the Lakers will have 2 PGs playing over him.
The Dallas pick is heavily protected anyway, and the Lakers do need a backup Center. So it's all good.

Why did they trade a 1st to the Rockets though? They have no draft picks left to offer right?

it is exactly about this.
Fisher has his streak. he would have demanded to start. But Blake + Sessions are better. It would have become a problem. Mitch new it. he ain't dumb.
Lakers felt they needed to part ways. Sad, but true.
thanks for everything, Fish. Will always root for ya (except against us or if you join the Cz/heat).
It also shed more salary for next season.
Correct.

Kahn's trading/signing has not been bad. Its his drafting that has sucked.
Fuck off PDX, you're not getting our Tebow
you found out?darkside31337

Probably because nobody else in the league would have traded for Fisher if they didn't give up that pick.
Patty sucks. We need a legit pg. For now though he would be better than Felton. Hopefully they'll play nolan more.
Get 1sts, keep cancers to tank, get good picks, get rid of cancers.

No Woj goofed. The Lakers gave the 1st round pick (from the Mavs) to the Rockets in the deal.
To everyone who didn't read the fine print
THE LAKERS GAVE UP A FIRST TO GET RID OF FISHER
Fisher has a player option, Jordan Hill has a team option, and getting rid of the first means they don't have to give someone a guaranteed contract.
Slick way to shed salary, if Hill doesn't pan out you let him go before the start of next season, where as there's no doubt Fisher would have picked up his option.
Blazers still have Jon Diebler too right? And why don't you guys throw Nolan Smith into the starting rotation fire?
Lakers are smart.
Black Mamba...I wish it was that but I doubt it. Kupchak doesn't seem like the type of guy who trades Fisher away.
Every move the Lakers have done, even the Sessions move, resulted in us lowering our payroll. Fisher may have given problems, but all the vets on this team loved him...this was a salary cut cheap ass Jim Buss type move

bleh
that sours the deal a little
jk we just saved ourselves of 3 years of Richard Jefferson! The thought of a 35 year old Jefferson being on our roster....and paying him 10 million! *shudder*
Now, JAXXX is 34 now, but at least he only has 2 years on his deal. Plus, he loves it here. He could give us some grit, and I think we need that. Be our Deshawn Stevenson.
You're being Racist against dog.

Pau should be a rejuvenated man tomorrow.
A top 20 protected first. For 6 years. And the Mavericks get to choose which year to send the pick.
Well, last year was pretty incredible, actually.
Williams, Lee, 3 future picks (1 1st, 2 2nd), and lots of cash.
I don't think we actually do still have Jon....... In any case I'm happy with just playing nolan/crawford starting and cutting Felton out right.
We have his rights.

I hope Fisher just retires already.
I don't want any buyout nonsense.
Get that bitch out of my league.
