Malone won't come back for league minimum again. The Lakers aren't good enough to win a championship. It's a re-building year, and why the hell would he put himself through more torture with a team that can't get him what he wants. Yes, that's right, can't.
It's going to take alot more then Divac to get this team to the big dance.
Yes, signing Vlade is a big step, IMO that makes them without a doubt a playoff threat in the west. But be honest, are they REALLY good enough to be the top dog in the west? To me, not yet. But, we'll see whent he season gets going, maybe this team will surprise everyone. I don't think Malone takes that chance.
IMO, Malone will sign with the Spurs. If they really want him.
