Chris Kaman: It's true, I am going to be going back to LA and it's to play for the Lakers! I am excited about this move and can't wait to play! #Lakers Twitter @chriskaman
"fat ass no face, damn what a waste. Said she likes it in her mouth, lil momma got taste."
Nice move by the Lakers using only the mle. Nice stop gap center for 1 year.
Whats so nice about this move aside from its worse than plan B I am sure. Nobody wanted Kaman. Lakers put all their eggs in the Howard basket and failed. Now they are scrabbling Kaman was whats left in the bargain barrel.

It's a nice move because the Lakers made it, If Kaman was the center that Portland brought in, it would of been another sign that Portland doesn't want to win.

No, it's nice because the Lakers are in win now mode. A one year stop gap center isn't bad for them. They have players, owners and a GM who all know what it takes to win. Don't fool yourselves into thinking the Lakers are done making moves. It's not the Blazers, they don't get happy over R Lopez's and T Robs.

Whats moves are left? They cant sign any big name FAs. They would have to make a trade but what assets do they have? Just because they are the Lakers doesn't mean that teams will just give them talent for nothing in return. If I were a Laker fan I would be worried because Kobe isnt going to be the same when he comes back. His body is breaking down. He is going to push himself to the limit and break down just like last year.

It's only a nice move because it's the ONLY move they had left. There must have been bad blood with Bynum. I half expected them to promise Bynum a bunch of one-year money to gamble that he'd play half a season and they could get a real center for a stop-gap.
The only reason the Lakers are scrambling to get towards the middle of the pack and not just having a whole-sale rebuild is because they have no draft picks left for two years. They gave up their next two 1st round picks to get Steve Nash, now they have to try like hell just to get into the upper part of the lottery so they're not feeling like they gave up top-5 picks for Nash. It's pretty pathetic.

Getting Kaman was the "big" addition for the Lakers this offseason. Maybe they'll get a decent vet or 2 at the minimum...maybe. The talk of them amnestying Artest just shows how little faith their front office has in their own team competing.
Forgot they traded their next 2 first rounders...do the picks have any restrictions? I'll laugh if PHX gets a top 10 pick from LAL!

Lol the Lakers are screwed. I love it. They're putting together a team that is not even close to being a contender AND they're screwing their only chance at rebuilding by not being bad enough to tank and get Wiggins, Parker, or Gordon.
I'm a million dollar mack, need a billion dollar bitch.

They are screwed for this year I think. But they have set themselves up down the road to do a Miami Heat type rebuild via free agency if they can get the players to commit. The key difference is Miami had a still prime Wade to help persuade Bosh and James to make the move. Unless Kobe proves he can remain an elite player at age 35 and coming off an Achilles tear, it simply won't be the same.
For all the crap Steve Blake took while here for being a below-average player it's pretty telling that LA needed to keep him on board for next year.
