In yet more quasi-Lakers news, former Lakers draft day pickup via trade from Toronto, Kareem Rush, has found a new home playing with the 76ers. A career 36 percent 3-point shooter who had a career year last year with the Pacers (and, consequently, helped my fantasy basketball team to a championship) will bring his marksmanship to a team sorely in need of a shooter. He has a better than good chance of beating out incumbent shooting guard, Willie-I-can’t-do-nothing-very-well-Green as the starter.
