Earl Watson Wants The Lakers


Recommended Posts

Watson would like to play for Lakers

 

Add Earl Watson to the list of the point guards the Lakers are taking a strong look at, a league source said.

 

Watson lives in the Los Angeles area with his actress wife, and his first preference would be to sign with the Lakers, the source said. The Lakers are high on Steve Blake, but would prefer to not spend their entire midlevel exception, possibly making Watson an affordable option.

Meh...he hasn't shot 43% from the field or 29% from 3 either of the last 2 seasons. He's not a bad bench player, and will certainly be affordable, but I don't think it'd be a great fit.

I would assume if Watson joins the Lakers then the Lakers would have to get rid of either Fisher or Farmar?

We're going to let Farmar go. He thinks he can start and contribute somewhere else (positive contributions, as in, Rajon Rondo contributions), so we're going to let him play his little heart and big ears out.
