http://hoopshype.com....htm#g14M-r2PMS It's not feasible for the Lakers to bring back Fisher now, with a payroll approaching $100 million, but sources with knowledge of their thinking say that the team has made it clear to the rest of the league that Chris Duhon and/or Steve Blake are available via trade to any interested party willing to absorb their respective contracts.

Hopefully, this is an either or thing, coz I don't like the idea of Morris as back-up PG. Who knows, maybe he surprises us all...

ALSO
Steve Blake and Chris Duhon are available via trade, sources tell ESPN's Marc Stein.
The Lakers would love to get one of the two contracts off the books with a $100 million payroll, but no team is going to just absorb either deal without gettings something more in return. Los Angeles could certainly strike a deal at some point as the team also has Darius Morris in the fold, but for now, both veterans will remain with the team.

does this mean Morris is possibly on his way out too, or he's just in the fold,for our team? idk ,its late, i havnt slept..

It means he is staying. They were just saying that they also have Morris, so having Duhon AND Blake is unnecessary.ALSO

i wouldnt put it past , NO , ur crazy bro, GOD himself couldnt even pull that off if he made another deal with the devil. its absolutely impossible.go read a frickn book. lol i just dunno what to say to that man, that was nuts. best case-scenerio for u to dream about is the fact that Barbosa said "i cant go to the Lakers NOW cuz theyre stacked at PG" he insinuated that he could possibly come play for us, if we trade away someone and get a roster spot.
"stacked" as in too many, not too good, of course!

This makes perfect sense. Each of those guys gets around 4 million, and there's no need for both. Trading one of those guys would save the Lakers EIGHT million when you add the luxury tax. But the problem is no team would take one of those players at their current salary, so Lakers would potentially need to sweeten the deal by including a young player like Morris.
Don't get ideas, this is strictly a salary dump. For ex. Blake and Morris to Cleveland for trade exception.
