  good for him. Maybe it’s not a good thing that I only remember him for his ‘do…

• Yesse Posted: Sep.20 at 9:16 am
  Lakers are just try to fill the bench.I hope they keep Mbenga there too.

• tavoris Posted: Sep.20 at 9:29 am
  Adam Morrison slips even further on the Lakers’ depth chart. Where is he EVER gonna get minutes behind Kobe, Artest, Odom, Walton, Vujacic, and Gelabale?

• larrylegend Posted: Sep.20 at 10:26 am
  don’t the lakers just keep morrison, to make sure, he won’t become the next larry bird…?

  Haha, met this guy in a club in Seattle. Cool cat for sure. Good player to. He has a good shot and a good handle. And he has a hella cool doo. haha

  Tony Parker doesn’t count?

• James the balla Posted: Sep.20 at 11:38 am
  Subway, I think he meant on the Lakers.

• Lucas Posted: Sep.20 at 12:28 pm
  This is a great opportunity… With his potential I’d really like to see him out play Vujacic (dont like that guy).

• Watari Atari Posted: Sep.20 at 2:30 pm
  … They better keep Mbenga…

• Big Kobe Fan Posted: Sep.20 at 3:30 pm
  i like this move he replaces morrison who is useless

• Danny W UK Posted: Sep.20 at 5:29 pm
  Gelabale said. “It’s a legendary team, with guys like Magic, Kareem, Kobe… I was a fan of the team as a kid.” Shaq is gonna be looking to dunk on you the first opportunity he gets. However, now that the Diesel is more like the Steam Engine, it may not happen in this lifetime.

  funny thing : in french j’ai la balle (“gelabale!”) mean i have the ball !
  ain’t it cool ?

  Nah, he’s not officially on the roster. He is only getting a contract for training camp, baiscally a “partially agreed” contract. Lakers could drop him before the season depending on how well he does in training camp

• ab_40 Posted: Sep.20 at 7:01 pm
  cool can adam morrison now please go to europe and play there he obviously isn’t good enough for the nba let jj redick join him put em on one team and sell em as the greatest players out of the us college ranks in 05 because if you have to beleive the reccord books that’s what they are hhhhhhhhhhahahaha

  If I remember correctly, he got tangled up with Kobe once & got kinda heated, & then ofcourse Kobe went off. Any who, good for him though.

• Antwonomous Posted: Sep.21 at 1:42 am
  I guess they did this in case Sasha doesn’t play well, or Ron Ron goes crazy or is otherwise unusable they have a swing man with athleticism to help out some.

• Mayweather Posted: Sep.21 at 6:00 am
  looks like theres another benchwarmer on the team

• Benjing Posted: Sep.21 at 6:22 am
  Well, although this contract is just for training camp yet, he was useful in Seattle and he was starting to click when he injured his knee. Don’t forget he’s young (just 24), he was considered one of the best European defenders (same defensive skills as M. Pietrus) and was a clear starter for Real Madrid (a European powerhouse) before he got drafted by the Sonics.
  I say this guy can play in the NBA, maybe 6th men status and has the defensive and offensive skills to hold his own, no superstar status to foresee but a good solid NBA player.

  God knows I hate the lakers, but can’t help but applaud this pickup. Galebale is a solidly skilled wingman, and if Phil does decide to coach again, this guy should fit in perfectly to the kind of archetype wingman Phil likes: Defensive minded, solid shooting, quick and long. If anything else this should mark the end of Vujacic getting any extended playing time which is all kinds of good.
