Weakest position seems to be SF with only true SFs being the former Artest and Ebanks. Does LA need more depth or slide in other guys ie small ball?

Really... really disappointed that Grant Hill chose the clippers over Lakers (basically, unheard of). Yes, he's 100 years old, but he could have provided solid minutes off the bench and tutored Ebanks in the process. Very disappointing.
Wouldn't mind seeing Kobe slide over to SF against certain teams and meeks getting some burn at SG. I really don't know what to expect from Meeks at this point though... Hoping for a pleasant surprise.

Meeks started before and should be a good shooter. How many SFs do you not want Kobe on? At least 3 right?
Wouldn't mind 1 more trade moving Blake or somebody

Isn't Clark a hybrid SF/PF? I haven't seen much of him (probably for a good reason)... but I'm wondering if he has anything to offer.
If not, he needs to be packaged with Blake.

Yeah a hybrid. SVG thought he had a lot of defensive potential and the vision was that he could be used on the big SFs like LeBron, Melo, and Durant. Offensive game is a worry though

Mickael Pietrus is still a FA? Decent defender and shooter as a SF.

Heard some rumors about him recently... Not sure how much he's asking for, but the roster would surely be set if Lakers were able to pick him up.
Unfortunately, some team will throw more money at him and he'll most likely take it.

Heard his agent screaming the other day about Pietrus "Not being a minimum player!" etc... Not sure of the exact context, but he (or his agent) may be looking to cash in after a failed cheaply-paid season.
Check ur PM box btw.

There is always T MAc LOL. This is a huge question. We had too many SFs now we have too little. Jamison can play the 3 and so can Kobe but do we want our elder guys runnin around with the likes of Melo, James, Durant? No knowing what will happen. Blake for Casspi might work because their backup PG situation is awful in Cleveland.

Kobe might have lost too much weight for the decent SFs. I don't think Jamison has the speed

Still needs a back up. Ebanks hasn't shown he can take next step

Adrian Wojnarowski @wojyahoonba
Several NBA people who've been watching Metta World Peace work in L.A. insist he's in the best physical shape they've seen him in years.
