 kobe is at a stage in his career where he should be looking to pass more which was evident in the 6 games he played last season where he was playing like a pg. Stephenson can play the point and bring it up. No reason they cant fit together.

how has it worked out for those players? Great, they are making tons. Not sure what you mean.  

 He is young and the character issues are overblown. curry not being one of the top 50 paid players doesnt mean teams are gonna get to sign guys for cheap just becasue he is an example of someone underpaid.

 my argument is written out. Tons of guys make more moeny then they are worth becasue teams battle for their signing and the price is driven up. Curry being underpaid doesnt mean anything. Stephenson’s agent isnt going to say, well curry is better and he makes 9 so we will take less. Agents look at the highest paid guys that are comparable and start from there. Marcin gortats agent will probably argue that guys like hibbert and chandler are comparable and he wants that kind of money. Then its up to the teams to fight for him. The better question is whats your argument? How does a higher salary negatively impact a players production? How does curry being underpaid impact the dozens of non all-star caliber free agents making more then 13 mill?

 nash is a non factor. he will come off the bench and His 9 mill will come off the books after this season.

 The 2 primary goals for the lakers this summer should be to get better defensively, and try and add quality pieces one step at a time even if it doesnt thrust them into contention. I think in lance and the #7 pick, you can add two solid pieces and hopefully both can play defense. The lakers will still be players in next years free agency class when nash’s contract comes off the books. I just look at this summer’s free agency and dont see any guys im truly excited about. monroe wants max money, lowry and bledsoe both had incredible seasons, but im always leary towards guys who have career years in a contract season, plus pg is a position with a lot of depth in the nba. And whoever the lakers add, they should be both young and able to help kobe on the wing defensively since at his age he cant be asked to gaurd the elite wings. Lance answers all those questions.

 kobe has 2 more years remaining. ANd as for not being a good fit becasue the roster is all gaurds, nash is irrelevent and on his way out. Marshall is a backup and sacre is a big. The only other guy is kobe and both he and lance can play multiple positions 1-3. Lakers need help everywhere, but its not like the gaurd position is set by any means.
