It seems that the Lakers are interested in Baron Davis, should he be cut by Cleveland (he will).

When the Cavs use their amnesty clause on him, he will still be paid, so perhaps he would sign a 2-3 year deal at the Vets minimum?

I say sign the guy, if possible. He cant be worse than Fish and Blake.

What do you guys think?

Do it! Baron looks like he's in shape

I like the guy, but he's way past his prime and I have a feeling he'll hog the ball too much ..

I don't think he'll ball hog it with this team. Even last year with LAC and CLE he wasn't shooting all that much. He looked to get Griffin involved a lot more than himself and on Cleveland he still seemed to spread the ball around (even though he probably should have shot more on that team.). I'm pretty sure he'd have no problem spreading the ball around and it's a good thing he can get his own shot off if needed. And with a regular offense rather than the triangle I think he'll be more comfortable running an offense.

I think it is a good idea, in theory. He is big and physical, knows what he is doing, and wants a ring. Even though he can have commitment issues, the thing is, that he is a player capable of 14 ppg and 6 apg which would be huge for our team. And playing with a team like the Lakers should open up some decent scoring opportunities for him. He can hit the three decently and he can get in the lane and create space.

He is a good option. Maybe not ideal, but he can do a lot that our current pg group cannot.
