He played good in the 23 regular season games with LA, however, once teams scout and adjust, I think his decline in the playoffs was noteworthy. I do not think he is as bad as he showed in the 12 playoff games but somewhere between LA regular season and playoffs is his true ability - likely what he showed in the regular season in Cleveland.
Giving Sessions $5-6M per year has Marcus Banks written all over it in my opinion - and it was Colangelo who gave Banks that contract. This is the type of free agent signing I hope BC stays away from - average to slightly below average players on above average contracts.

I would rather do that with cap space
Sessions + +lucas + Bayless + #8
or Sessions +lucas + Bayless + Gay (amnesty Calderon)
better than Calderon + Deng

Behind Kyrie Irving, shouldn't it be the other way around if he was good?
And Jennings...?
As for the Lakers, anything was better than Fisher at the starting point.

His performance in the playoffs was brutal. He was often lifted for Steve Blake. I'd rather keep Calderon and take a flyer on a guy like Scott Machado in the second round.

I actually like Ramon Sessions, but I wouldn't make him a priority. He has improved his 3point shooting over the last few years, his PER would rank him in the Raps' top 3, he is pretty efficient. His defense isn't much of an upgrade though.
I like Bayless better.

HUH?
in the last two years he is .450 from 3 and almost an 80% ft shooter.
The lakers dumped fisher and traded for him. Granted he did not gel with kobe but I think LALA land and all the glitz of a playoff run was a tough adjustment for any 3rd year player.

I'd rather keep Calderon and re-sign him for another season or two, than sign Sessions to be a starter. He'll be too in demand to sign for backup money/role.

i was actually a fan of Sessions till i saw him play with the lakers.
He doesnt seem to have a jumpshot, which i think for a PG is quite vital, since most of your shots will probably come at the end of the shot clock, or kickouts. He's a good slasher, but at 26, i dont think he can still improve that jumpshot.
Pass.
