      I dunno man Lakers putting alot of money behind players with short track records. But honestly in the same thought they do deserve them.

        Letting him walk away would have been worse. Young talented, playoff proven. You could always trade him in the future

      I was hoping someone offer sheeted him just so lakers would have to match a 100m contract. But I guess there weren’t any real suitors out there.
