LA Times Scott Howard-Cooper on

Here's what the LA Times columnist said about a possible Knight for Van Exel 
deal:

"In another attempt to bolster themselves at power forward, it was learned, the 
Lakers recently approached the Boston Celtics about re-acquiring Travis Knight 
-- a move that would thrill Knight -- but those talks did not develop into 
anything of substance.

"Whether the lakers and Boston had something going separately with Van Exel 
could be another matter -- officials from other teams said the Celtics were 
calling around to gauge what they could get for Van Exel."

Any ways, he mentions that in all likelihood, van Exel will be traded to 
Orlando for one of their draft choices and Jerry West will pull off another 
draft day steal by taking Jason Williams, the Lakers "point guard of the 
future..."
