Look at some scoop I dug up at Daily News:
Camp invitee Maurice Carter, a former USBL and ABA player, has thoroughly outplayed Kareem Rush, the Lakers' 2002 first-round pick, in practice. Carter is a long shot to make the team, however, because Rush's fully guaranteed contract has two years remaining. ...
I'm wonderin...why hasn't Rush stepped it up yet? If he gets beaten by guys like Mo Carter up and down the court, how come he can't really bring his talent and expertise to the Lakers? Hell, even MO CARTER outplayed him in the SPL a year ago...16 points a game...this guy will make the cut, but he has a lot of talent and we wouldn't want that to go to waste. The Lakers have a lot of great pickups from TC, if only we can keep all of them (except Archibong and Chenowith).
BTW, Ime Udoka had a nice game yesterday. 8 minutes, 6 points, 2 rebounds and 3 assists...course it's just preseason. He took five shots in eight minutes. Sounds like he can pass the ball with 3 assists.
BTWW....Gerald Wallace shot 3-10 against the Clippers! YES! My dream has been fulfilled!
