No Delonte, don't go to the lakers! As a side note,can you imagine Ron Artest and Dwest on the same team? Also, how do the lakers think they can get Affialo? They can't pay him, and he would be Kobe's backup.

I definitely hope we can re-sign Delonte.  Scrappy player, and a good combo-guard off the bench.

That would be a spectacle to watch though, Metta and DWest.  I can picture it now, Delonte riding dirty in Metta's psuedo indy car with guns blazin'!  Yikes!

The Lakers should have signed Delonte West last season. Good upgrade over Derek Fisher and a really nice fit alongside Kobe Bryant and those two seven footers with his shooting ability.

Delonte would be an excellent addition to the Lakers.

  If they do sign him, maybe they could have him room with Artest when the team's on the road.

He would be a great fit in LA... Danny bring Delonte back!

I think the Celts should offer Delonte more than the min and/or 2-3 years if thats what it takes. He plays defense, steps up in big games, can score in a variety of ways, and plays with heart (remember he played for us at the end of last year still all sorts of banged up and played well). I think something like 2 years for 5 mil would be fair.

He's better than Fisher, Blake or Brown; I can see why they'd want him.  Delonte's so good at playing off ball-dominant players like Kobe.

Really hope they don't offer him their mini-MLE though.  Delonte would be a big loss, but we couldn't afford to match that offer.
