I thought it started when the Lakers learned they had to play the Suns in the Playoffs?

Walton, Turiaf, Mihm, McKie, Shammond Williams, and Smush Parker are all free agents.

The team payroll will be at $57,660,336 next season.

Odom is supposedly going to be trade bait in the summer. And reportedly all the trade scenarios involving LA had the other teams wanting Bynum.

They should have the 19th, 40th, and 48th picks in the draft.

It will definitely be an interesting summer for those guys.

Contrary to hoopshype.com, Turiaf is not a FA.

Carry on.

How long was the contract he signed after they voided the original?

Love watching that guy play. He's balls to the wall the entire time he is out there.

He could be a solid contributor to any team in the league for the next 10 years.

I cant for the life of me find any info on Turiaf's extension. I think it happened last fall.

Stein does elude to it here though;

First the shenanigans AI pulled with Jordin and now this thread.

My shell has been broken.

-----------

I couldn't find anything detailing how long Turiaf is signed for either. Other than they resigned him after the surgery.
