waive hayes
This is an easy pickup. The Lakers need to sign him today.
I’d definitely take him
Worry he’d end up completely taking Woods minutes though, don’t want to see any AD/LBJ/Cam/Biyombo type lineups
He’s so good that we missed out on signing him and got waived from a team that played him regular mins. Hmmm
Better than Hayes. He rebounds and kind of defends. Hayes fouls and jumps out of position.
Pelinka i think you are a very smart person. Lets pls waive hayes and bring Biyombo which shouldve done 4 months ago
Biyombo would be a good pickup. But shouldn’t take any of woods minutes. Play Wood as PF next to him and watch magic happen
We’ve kept the 15th roster spot for this reason
Robert Pelinka…get on the phone
Way better than Hayes, sign him asap
Oh shit…it’s not too late Rob!

Sign Biz and use Hayes as salary filler in a trade. Easy call
Great opportunity to bring in an experienced center that can bang in the paint and gives us another dimension of play.
Cut Hayes and sign him. No brainer
Sign him and then have him and Wood fuse
If Hayes gets cut I can see him going to the Clippers. They need a lob threat like him.
sign him now. He’d be great on this team.
Feel like Phoenix or Boston will end up with him.
Instant improvement over Hayes
Do it Rob!
Lakers better sign him. All he has to do is box out, set hard screens and deter/block shots at the rim.
Before anybody start this sign him stuff realize who he is and his game.
Interesting.
Trade gabe for dennis, pickup biyombo and trade Hayes and one of our rookies for N. Richards PG-Dlo SG*-Christie/Cam SF-Prince PF-James C-Davis PG-Dennis SG-Reaves SF*-Rui/Vando PF-Wood C*-Richards/Biyombo
*= (based on who’s having a better particular game. Darvin.). Good complementary lineups. Rotations determine so much for this team it’s unreal
Omg if we don’t pick him up ASAP we don’t want to win!
The closest thing to a Dwight today, in terms of talent/cost
Sheesh I didn’t expect Grizzlies to waive him. Definitely a solid backup big if AD misses a game
Yea this is a no brainer
Can we even cut Hayes ? I thought we couldn’t
Make the move
GET ON THE PHONE NOW PELINKA
Bismack Biyombo, you are a Laker
A team with a glaring need for a center just cut him. And he didn’t get signed until well into the regular season.
This isn’t 2k, he’s not gonna impact like you think.

Sign Biyombo
Drop Hayes
Re-sign Wenyen
Haive wayes!
I think he would be a nice add with the last roster spot, but we’re not going to do it. The front office has shown they prefer to keep that last spot open. That makes sense going into the trade deadline. Also waiving Hayes makes no sense since we’re already so close to the hard cap. He’s salary filler at this point.
SIGN NOW
This is the one. Him getting 5 million from the griz is why we couldn’t get him earlier.
The only issue is with wood playing better, Biyombo wouldn’t be guaranteed minutes…would he come for a situational role? Or go somewhere else for a bigger promised role?
Waiving Hayes is calculated to team salary cap. Waste team salary space.
