Figured I would post this here since it doesn't need/deserve it's own thread.

The Lakers have signed Theo Ratliff. Details won't be released, per the Lakers "rules"
http://www.nba.com/lakers/news/100722_ratliff_sign.html

I think this is a really nice move for LA. Theo has always been a good defender and should be a nice backup for Bynum.

And hasnt played more than 50 games since 05-06. If they get Barnes, that will be a great pickup for them.

PG-Fisher/Blake/Vujacic
SG-Kobe/Brown(assuming he comes back),Barnes
SF-Artest/Barnes/Walton/Ebanks
PF-Gasol/Odom/Caracter
C-Bynum/Ratliff

Mbenga, Brown and Morrison are all FA's still. Farmar and Powell signed elsewhere.

^^^Matt Barnes signed with Toronto.

And Theo played 48 last year, so that's basically 50.

from ESPN:
UPDATE: Adrian Wojnarowski of Yahoo Sports tweeted Thursday that unless Cleveland raises its multiyear offer that starts around $3.5 million, Barnes will sign a one-year, $1.7 million deal with the Lakers.
Brian Winhorst of the Cleveland Plain Dealer added that he doesn't see the Cavs raising their offer at all -- since it's already the highest and they'd be bidding against themselves -- meaning Barnes will likely be a Laker.
---
Monday night, Matt Barnes thought he was heading to Toronto for a two-year, $9 million deal, but salary cap rules prevented that from happening. Barnes could still end up in Toronto for a smaller contract, but he also has four other teams eyeing him, ESPN.com's Marc Stein reports.
The four other teams are Cleveland, which can pay him the most, Boston, Miami and the Los Angeles Lakers.
"We are out there aggressively stoking the fire, and unfortunately, we ran into some difficulty getting this done," Raptors president of basketball operations Bryan Colangelo told the Toronto Star. "We remain interested in acquiring Matt, but other teams are now in the mix."
