Guy has great this series. He has kept Pau from going off and has been a more than adequate fill in for D West.

Better at defending guys bigger than him than I would have thought. It would be great if we could by some miracle get a bigger C for Okafor since both of our PF's are undersized.

Truthfully I feel we stole Landry from the Kings. I hope we sign Landry for less money, let DWest leave, then find another guy to play along side paul. Nothing against DWest, but I think his contract will stop us from building a true contender. If we can get similar production from Landry for a third the price, why not. (aside from losing more size which we already lack)

he has 1 year left and has had one of the better contracts in the league. No way we let him walk until after next season. DWest's contract is a steal.

Landry is awesome, but we are going to have to pay him to keep him IMO

He actually is about the same size as West.

West will pick up his player option because of the injury though. His injury will really frick us this offseason.

I like Landry, but I would take a healthy D-West 10 times out of 10.

Hope we can keep both. I honestly think West would be one of those players that'd take a little less money to bring in an additional piece if it came down to it. Not saying that he would, I just wouldn't put it past him.

IMO it depends on the money. If money wasn't involved it is DWest all day.

I agree, wouldnt want to overpay for him coming off the injury.

I'll take DWest over Landry straight up every day, but if we can use that money to get a legit scoring 2 then Landry is just fine by me.

I know I'm crazy, but I've been ALL about Landry since the trade and have been a bit disappointed in him this series. He has defend Pau very well, scored somewhat efficiently, which is really all you can ask for. But West is a 9 rebound a game guy. Landry has averaged under 5.5 this series, and that leads to a ton of second chance points. I think he could be a 6th man of the year type player, but I don't trust him as a starter in the playoffs. Would NOT trade back for MT5, though.

He's far and away been our most consistent/reliable player this entire series.

He was our leading scorer in game 3. Landry was pretty much the sole reason we didnt get blown out of the building on Friday.


West is better, but Landry is a big reason the lakers aren't heading back to LA tonight with a 1st round sweep.

Uhhhhh, obviously you're excluding CP3, but Ariza has been better as well.
