FINALLY! They got rid of Brian Cook, that is AWESOME, he was such a waste of money.
Brian Cook and Maurice Evans for Trevor Ariza.

Well that should assure another banner in the rafters......Chrissake you're acting like Magic and Karreem just sold their souls for their 30 year old bodies.

This is a great move for the Lakers.
Ariza is also a local, I am sure he is just as happy to be on the Lakers.
There was an interview with Mitch and he said they did it cause of duplications on the roster.
Vlade and Cook were fighting for a spot, so that solves that problem, especially since Vlade is firing on all cylinders now.
Brian Cook equals whale dung thank god he's gone. I have never seen a softer, ole defensive loser. It just leaves more minutes for players who are willing to give it all they got.

Not to mention he is in his first year of a 10.5 million dollar contract!The Lakers definitely saved some money and suffering on this deal.
Yep. Even though I'm not real familiar w/the guy they picked up, I'm good with just dumping the load of Cook and Evans. Mostly those guys were ineffective. On to bigger and better days.

He is a local, went to UCLA. He plays the 3 and is supposed to be great defensively and VERY athletic.

He averaged 9 points in low minutes last season.
He plays the same position as Rashard Lewis, that's why him minutes were down.
And I can understand your disappointment with Brian Cook, BUT he wasn't even a dominate low post player in college. He's a small forward in a big body. He's not physical, he's not a great rebounder or defender. He can shoot.
He is too one dimensional and the Lakers have Vlade who can shoot better, play better D and rebound better, he is alot more mobile than Cook.
