They Didnt have Money to go Get a Max Contract guy and they dont even need one lol...? is that Dude Talkin about

Devin Ebanks Will Play Minutes this Year and he looks like a Guy who will fit Perfect in ther Triangle, Lenghty, Plays Solid D can Hit a Open J

Picked Up Matt Barnes a Tough Solid Defender

Picked up Steve Blake Who Can hit a Open Jumper and Wont be Turnover Prone like Farmar and has actually started in the League

They Did What they needed to do and that was Upgrade the Bench Some.

Hollinger is a ? ! The lakers added 2 starters to their bench and get rid of some of that junk on the bench. They brought back P.J, Bynum and Kobe had successful surgery, and Fisher returned. Hollinger writes ish for shock value.

Shannon Brown's agent, Mark Bartelstein, told The Associated Press that his client has agreed to a two-year deal worth $4.6 million.

"He's been there two years, and they've won two championships," Bartelstein said. "There's very few times you have a chance to go for a threepeat. When you have that opportunity, he couldn't pass it up."

Brown spent the past four weeks considering offers from several teams, including New York, Cleveland and New Orleans. Most offered longer deals with more security, but little shot at title contention.

Nice to see Shannon Brown back. I feel bad for him though, he will be lower on the depth chart this season.

I think he will be Bryants primary back-up Barnes is gonna have to back-up Artest with Luke being out n all and I doubt Sasha is a Laker by yrs end unless he steps his game up drastically

This is great news, he knows the system he's a good player. He wants a third ring, those other teams aren't contenders especially cleveland.

Good we got everyone essential locked down for the next few years.. I'm really glad he decided to stay.. he could have gotten more.. but im sure he enjoys the spoils. The weather.. the comraderie of the team
