Don't make cow drool.
I'm down for a THT/Holmes offseason.

I think at least one out of Caruso/THT will be available and I would take both if that´s an option.

Guys explain the THT love to me. I see a guy who can't shoot and doesn't have all that impressive stats. Seems like a guy hyped by LA media.
I've at least seen Caruso ball out defensively and hit clutch shots.

4/56
Remember that the Lakers can back load the final two years of his contract and only pay ~10 per the first two.

Only 20 years old and already a rotation player on a contender. He has the PJ Tucker frame. 6´4 with a 7´1 wingspan. Also brings some playmaking and ballhandling ability on offense. Great part is his ability to get into and finish in the paint. Takes more than 40% of his shots at the rim. Makes 64% of them.

Sign me up if we can get him for that. I was hearing more in the 4/80 range.

Defends well. Has shown he can create for others. Handles well. Finishes well around the rim. His shot doesn't look broken. If he ups his percentages, he'll be the perfect running mate on any team. Still 20 years old.

THT shot 46% from the field and 78% from the FT line this past season. His 3% shooting is definitely in line for improvement. I would think our head coach has a pretty good feel on the type of player THT could be and for that matter Caruso. But I would prefer THT.

4/84 is his max. I don't think he'll get that. I could see 4/60. If matched, the bigger the offer he gets, the more it screws with the Lakers cap down the line. Win/Win.

Edited the initial post with all of the POs sorted out, as well as all of the TOs aside from Daquan Jeffries (hurry the hell up, Spurs). Will update RFAs to UFAs as best I can.

Um, no. Not waiting on anyone. I thought there was a number LAL *couldn't* match.
