I would have expected them to be able to get more then two busts and a 2nd rd pick for Camby.

It's a free 2nd Round pick and they get to lose more games I guess.
Thabeet and Flynn both have team options which will probably get declined.

between that and the Nets deal, it seems the blazers are going to rebuild mode, getting expirings, giving up contracts and getting picks

Add Jason Kapono going to Cleveland.
As part of the Ramon Sessions package, the Lakers sent Jason Kapono to Cleveland, league source tells Y! Sports.

He should.
Also, I can't for the life of me understand why Cleveland would take on Walton, but I'm not complaining.

Lakers need help off the bench, not from their starters. Id being Sessions off the bench, but play him more than Fisher. Basically do with him what OKC does with Harden.
Anyways, Morey is a GOD. I know Marcus Camby isnt amazing or anything, but hes exactly what we need, and we got him for THABEET AND FLYNN? Amazing.

Bingo. He'll probably come in around the 7 minute mark of the 1st and play until the last 3 minutes of the half or so.

Houston gets Dallas's 1st
Need a backup PG while Lowry is out with a Bacterial infection, and Camby stole all of Hill's mins and wasnt coming back next year, so thats fine.

Fisher has never even been to Kobe's house.
Kobe doesn't really have "friends" in the traditional sense. He's a weird guy.

I was thinking about that.
Lakers still have another first rounder and the trade exemption, more deals could happen.
I'd still like the Beasley one.

Then you clearly havent seen Hill play or the fact that Camby will take Hill's minutes if he stayed. Also we needed a backup PG since Lowry is out for a while.

Also, the Fisher trade should clarify if Sessions will start, IMO.

Interesting. Bring him back on a vet minimum? That would end up being an awesome deal for the Lakers. Plus with Sessions on board there isn't a reason Blake should see the floor ever again.

Fine by me. We only need Fisher for a couple weeks anyway until Lowry comes back. That 1st rounder is still good value in return for Hill.

You do realize that Hill used to play for the Knicks right?
Its the fact that you willingly traded for Derek Fisher as your backup option when he has 2 years on his contract one is a player option. That made no sense to me. Since you could have got a backup in FA while you wait for Lowery to recover and got better results then Fisher.
