We're not running a nursing home here and Monk has yet to produce at the level of rookie year IQ. For our needs, Kemba and Rose fit more. But the Knicks could've done a lot with an extra $18M. So the question really is would I rather have Nunn at $5M or Kemba at $8M? I'd rather have Kemba to be honest. Always... always remember: Less is less. More is more.

Overall, those were great signings by the Lakers. Ellington, I'm not a fan of and I think Ariza is cook but both Monk and Nunn were steals and if Melo and Howard can perform like they did this past year, the Lakers bench is going to be top notch. |

This happens every year, the team that makes the spashiest move gets all these quality players at minimum sweetheart deals. It is always wherever the biggest superstar moves to. Brooklyn, LA, Clippers....that is why I respect the Bucks. They managed not not do that crap and win. They may or may not win in a normal regular NBA season, but they built a proper team without any of this ring chasing crap. ~You can't run from who you are.~

Ariza? Tucker? Come playoffs, what's to stop a defender from leaving Westbrook and doubling LeBron? Most of these acquisitions are crap shows waiting to happen. Their Isaiah Knicks level bad. No one wants to say it because it's the Lakers, but let's be real. Tight game and you have Westbrook with the ball in his hands, you feeling confident? Russ is one of the few players in the league who make Elf look like a good shooter. I don't see it with the Lakers this year. The idea of Lakers vs Knicks game where Trevor Ariza is subbed in to stop a RJ got streak is laughable. Always... always remember: Less is less. More is more. More is better and twice as much is good too. Not enough is bad, and too much is never enough except when it's just about right.

Who's fighting for those 50-50 balls? Who's racing back on D to break up a fast break? If the answer is LeBron，LeBron，LeBron， Lakers will crap out soon. They messed up by replacing Caruso with Monk and Nunn. Lakers defense won them a ring and Caruso was the heart and soul of it. Too bad he doesn't have a more photogenic appearance. |
