If he's only "solidly healed" now, he won't be ready until Christmas. And even then he may still get injured within a couple of games because that's what he does. Sign someone who is not made of pressed sugar please.

This is not the one and only move. Why not take the chance? If he gets injured then we replace him with someone else. What's the big deal? If there was someone else out there that was so much better then why haven't we or someone else scooped him up?

Because capable NBA bigs will be just sitting there midseason pining to play for someone at the vet minimum?

Hope we sign him.

He's absolutely what we are looking for as far as solving the rebounding and the rim protection issues. Excellent passer for his position, will fit right in with us.

I get the health concerns, but this is worth the risk.

Yeah, usually. Bogut was one of those himself after Dallas bought him out last season (and before he reinjured himself yet again). Midseason buyouts usually yield a couple of capable players who can be signed on the cheap by contenders.

  • Peace it's a board. We all will never agree.
His leg is sound. He is what we need. GSW had a great +/- with him on the floor.
To me it is a no brainer.

Actually, yes, I think there will be one in Boris Diaw who is playing in France with an NBA opt-out clause. He can make most of his money over there until late in the NBA season when a team over here can scoop him up to play for the vet minimum, if needed.

Signing with The Lakers, I thought he wanted to contend?
Can we now sign Anthony Randolph? Bogut is toast...

Bogut was chasing a ring last year, what's he chasing this year?

Money.  Also, for sure he'll get his buyout at the end of February when the Lakers are out of it, so he can still go ring chase.
