Lakers sign Timofey Mozgov to a 4 year, $64M deal

last season he averaged 6.9 points. Did not watch Cavs but should be during garbage time after LBJ sealed the games.

I hope this contract won't come and bite us later. 16 million for this guy? for 4 years?

This contract is an absolute atrocity if all four years are guaranteed. $64 million for a 30 year old bench warmer coming off of knee surgery? Are you ****ing kidding me? Who cares if we strike out on centers this year, just keep the damn money for next year instead of wasting our precious cap room on somebody who couldn't get minutes of Tristan Thompson and Channing Frye. What a freaking joke if this turns out to be true. It'll end up being for the first truly horrid contract on the Mitch era. Jesus Christ this is bad. ****!

Wow. Mozgov is a decent signing but at $65m?

Man see what great signings that Kobe contract prevented us from signing? Man wait until Kobe retires, all the megastars will be flocking to Jimmy. No more Kobe to mess up Jimmys business acumen and sales pitch.

I like the Mozgov signing. He wont complain about touches and he will be happy to let the young guys take the spotlight.

Price wise, a good deal IMO. (Relatively speaking).

It's just not a "call yo friends, call yo wife" type deal.

Hey goldenthroat. Remember in ur lakersfilmroom videos one of the keys to the gsw offense is setting screens. Bogut was a good screen setter. So is mozgov. If Luke approved, I appprove.

Any chance this is a backloaded contract?

Have to think Luke was thinking Bogut.

Seems like this will be Mitch's last season

Mitch seriously not even trying. What the hell is the rush? It's not like any teams are gunning to get this guy.

I don't have a problem with Mozgov as a player on this team. We do't know how the contract is set up yet or what the center market is like so we'll see in terms of cost.

For that money, it is a bad signing. He is 30 years old is coming off with an injury.

Mozsloth. His defensive metrics the last two years are flat out bad. Please don't claim this guy defends, his is a liability on that end, that's why he bench warms. His strength is in low post offense, the kind that was supposed to be on the out, sets a good pick, and can pull some boards.

If Zubac can't equal Mozgov's production by year 2, he was a bad draft pick.
