Why does it upset anyone? Its a one year deal
It doesnt change anything about our future.
1 year at 1.1mil, could be up to 8 per w/incentives
definitely not a buss move. ryan west maybe

NBA source calls Yi Jianlian's contract "very creative." Non-guaranteed vet's min deal for $1.1 mill can increase to $8 mill w/ incentives.
I compared him to them in the sense that he's a back up big on a low risk deal.nope
He's this year's Ed Davis/Brandon Bass.
dont think cause he's 7ft. hes gonna bang in the paint.
theres a reason he wasnt in the nba anymore.
team didnt need another big at all
team needed a shooter at the 3 and while he can shoot, hes not the one
Deal sounds even better now.YizusMike Bresnahan @Mike_Bresnahan 3m3 minutes ago

With teams allowed to carry as many as 20 players per roster during training camp, the Lakers held a free agent minicamp on Wednesday to take a look at some of those looking to break into the NBA or return to it.

Fire up the tank?
Real news comes out *crickets* ....
No way Deng comes off the bench. I agree with the rest of the starters, to start the season at least.Russell / Calderon / Huertas
Clarkson / Lou Williams
Ingram / Deng / A. Brown
Randle / Nance
Mozgov / Yi / Black / Zubac
*Nick Young cut, traded, or glued to the bench all season.
* Don't think Ingram gets put on the bench, but I wouldn't be surprised if Deng ends up starting over him. Putting 4 young guys in the starting lineup together isn't the best idea.
*Yi starts out as Backup Center, Not sure how long that lasts
*Black won't get many minutes unless Yi stinks (which is a good chance)
*Zubac & A. Brown likely up & down with D-Fenders all season
