He’s signed!!!

I think we can say good bye to the 20 rebound games by Boozer, Odom, Aldridge, Gasol, etc.

We got 2 proven big, bigs now.

YO ERIC! we didnt get him for his shot making… We got him for his REBOUNDING AND LOW POST D…. relax, 4 million is fair and a decent price for a guy who does the dirty work…

we now have

C AB

C R T

PF C M

PF B W

PF R H

that’s a good blend of bigs

2 guys who do the dirty work

2 Finesse guys

and AB

I dont think AL will be back… were really deep

up front now….

not to mention were stacked at the guard position…

I know we dont have a typical PG but were still deep

at G

the only way I see Al coming back is if he comes off

the bench and I dont think he wants to do that…

Many a Laker fan will miss Ronny, presuming they do not match today. He should get plenty of minutes at his natural PF spot playing for Golden State. I wouldn’t be at all surprised to see him have a breakout season for them. Although I’ve read plenty of criticism that he’s not worth 4+ million per season, I think GSW fans will be glad over what a bargain they have grabbed when it’s all said and done.

Best of luck to you, Ronny! You were a great teammate in LA.

Ronny will be fine. I did get upset when $9M man Adonal Foyle got more praise for reading the Wall Street Journal than the playbook.

Geez Eric,

Your going a little harsh on the guy, he’s spending some time with his daughter.

It’s not like the guy is Kobe getting 24 mil. 4 million is pretty much what a decent 7th or 8th man makes on an NBA team. If we get him I am sure we will pleased with his work ethic.

Maybe he should mix in a little working out and some practice on that erratic shot of his. Chilling doesn’t put points on the board. He’s guaranteed to make $4 mil, He better do a little less chilling and earn his new paycheck..
