magicbalala245 Posted July 8, 2011 Report Share Posted July 8, 2011 (edited) Article is in French but this is Hoops Hype translation. Should Lakers pursue a trade for Pietrus? Shannon Brown did just opt out and there is a spot for Pietrus to play a back up at the SG Mickael Pietrus: "A lot of teams are interested in me, like the Lakers or the Celtics. This came from the best player in the world: Kobe Bryant. He told me two months ago that he would like to see me with the Lakers."

Abro Posted July 8, 2011 Report Share Posted July 8, 2011 Yeah.. One less headache for Kobe to worry bout since pietrus is a pretty good defender Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Owner Real Deal Posted July 8, 2011 Owner Report Share Posted July 8, 2011 It's really odd. I don't see Kobe wanting guys like him because they defend him well...he never really wanted Battier on his team, nor did he come out and say he wanted Prince...but guys like Barnes and Ron were both guys that defended him well AND got in his face, ready to fight. Pietrus was almost to that point a few times, and he was very physical with LeBron one year. Ironically, he wanted Raja Bell, also...another who clotheslined him and was into trading elbows with Bryant. I actually like that he's doing stuff like this, but I'm not THAT big of a fan of Pietrus, either. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kingfish Posted July 8, 2011 Report Share Posted July 8, 2011 You mean we can have a back up shooting guard that actually has a brain? I dont think we've ever had one of those. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
