I still feel like he (bleep) us over in summer of 2013. He will have to earn the fans' trust back.

Great move. Don’t get why so many’s emotions are clouded. He’s still is a skilled player, no one else available is close. If he’s a problem, he’s gone. I see no downside.

As much as I hate him being a Laker, I will hope it works out even on a limited basis.

question for some of you stating there is no downside of simply releasing him mid-season. What center are they signing in Dec or Feb to replace him?

Selection will be even worse and building chemistry and learning systems becomes an issue.


This is true. But that's also buyout season. The opportunity cost IMO is Noah.

Sigh

Let’s go Dwight! This is your last chance for a ring! Redeem yourself!

Lebron will keep his ass in check

Here we go again, LG (Laker Gripe) strikes again. FO did its due dilligence, and I will cheer for Coward to do well. Earn your heart back and be called Dwight again. Congrats Coward prove us wrong.

Noah (should have been the choice) only if he is healthy, which I doubt.
Speights must be just out of shape for the NBA even though he can shoot.

Brilliant move for LBJ.

Now he won't be the most hated Laker by Lakers fans.

Ive hated Dwight since he left, but he's wearing purple and gold...and we need another title!

We lost our 3 former #2s, and now we have 3 former #1s (LBJ, AD, DH12)!!

Damn. I hate him. Hate when he talks, just hate him.

I still have the Jersey I bought for my 7 year old daughter at the time. You guys think I should bust it out for my youngest daughter who is 8 now? Lol

As a center alongside AD he's actually a pretty amazing get. I mean, I can't stand him from his previous stop here but I'm down for a redemption story.

I just want to feel good about the Lakers again at some point.

Clearly they should sign Paul Pierce out of retirement now.

Great signing!!! You can argue he’s a better defensive center than Boogie and honestly we need defense. Not only that but all the attention AD and Bron require will open if Dwight for easy love and follow up dunks. Pelinka keeps doing the right thing and puts the past behind in order to win now

Him and McGee about 20 min a piece and play as hard as they can when they are on the floor. No excuse not to and AD plays about 8 at the C spot.

I'd rather have Noah, but it's not like we could do much better than Dwight.

A non-guaranteed deal? I don’t get how anyone doesn’t like this. Leave the past behind.
