I hear ya on the roster getting smaller, but remember we have Pau Andrew and Ron Ron locked in in the frontcourt for the foreseeable future. We clearly need to add some depth behind them in the case we lose Mr. Kardashian, but it isn't tough to convince backups or former all stars to come to LA for cheap (imagine a guy like Jamison or . Plus, Calderon is a great triangle fit and long-term solution to Fish as you mentioned. Think about the bball iq on the floor between Kobe, Pau and Calderon for 30+ minutes a game starting next year.

Shannon Brown would be left as the backup 2 for Kobe (splitting time with Sasha, I hate to admit). That would make Calderon the primary guy in line for Derek Fishers job. If we move Farmar for him, I'm perfectly fine with that. One thing we have to watch, though, is how small our roster is getting. We can't handle many injuries as is, and a 2-for-1 trade would only make that worse. While Adam Morrison isn't someone I'd like in the rotation, at least he's a warm body with a decent skill set to throw in with some higher-caliber players when we need a man in there. I'm conflicted, if you can't tell. How cool would it be to have Kobe, Calderon, Pau, and Sasha on the floor at the same time. They could all speak spanish to one another (Kobe and Sasha are both fluent). Tell Ron Ron to just lock down some defender and let the rest of the team openly talk to each other in Spanish during the game.
