He's valuable though. Just giving him away, unless it's to clear space to sign someone like Aldridge, would be wrong. He could net you draft picks at the very least.

They aren't joined at the hip people.
They are emotionally.

He wants to give the Lakers a chance to get it right. So probably by meeting like 6 with them.

Kobe should excuse himself from the meeting then.

LaMarcus cancels meeting with Knicks. Haha.
IN other news Lakers meeting again will just involve Scott and Kupchack. No Kobe.

I wonder what plan B is if LMA doesn't sign...
We have extra cap space now.

I'm listening to LeBatard and he's saying it's true that Riley is asking for a LMA meeting....

What happens to Bosh and Wade then? I dont see the fit here.

Pretty sure we can sign and trade Tucker and Goodwin for Chandler. Just sign LMA outright and keep Markieff or move him for something else

Markieff is already bitching on Twitter. Idiot. You and your bro get signed on the same team to make both of you happy. Get a nice payday. Then you and your bro lead the league in technicals, Marcus comes an inch away from violently assaulting Hornacek on the sidelines on national TV and then both of you go out and commit assault on a man outside of a youth basketball gym for texting your mom.
None of us would still have our jobs much less freedom outside of jail or prison right now if we pulled the same stupidity. But go ahead, bitch and moan about the injustice the Suns have dealt you and your brother.
Can't wait for us to dump Keef soon too in a S&T. The thug brothers can be split up wrecking havoc on another roster next season.

Kinda nervous the Lakers are getting a 2nd meeting to talk basketball. Might just be out of respect, but if LMA weren't interested in the Lakers, he wouldn't be meeting with them.

I think it is just being done at the insistence I'd various agents to help LAL save face. Guaranteed there will be leaks afterward saying that the 2nd meeting went much better, but then he won't sign there.

The center thing keeps popping up. Apparently it is a pretty big deal to LMA. Seems like McD knew that ahead of time.

Even Miami...they don't have space but couldn't they trade Bosh or Deng and make room? I'll never put anything past Riley and Wade is the type of guy who's stepped aside before to let someone else be the man. Dragic, Wade, Winslow, Whiteside and a basically a clear path to the ECFs.

Anyone who's done their homework knew this going in. Very surprising about the Knicks unless they were trying to convince him it's the way the league is trending.

I don't get why Miami wants LMA. They already have Bosh, who's a more-than-capable starting PF and not much different in age than LMA. And I doubt they have the cap space to get him anyway. Why do they even want that meeting? Would they dump Whiteside, start Bosh at C, and put LMA at PF? I don't get it.

Well Miami just resigned Wade to a one year $20 million dollar contract.

Wouldn't LMA be a center on lakers anyway, at least part time. I guess Jordan hill can start, but Randle is definitely a 4
