This is surely agent talk (it's his job, or did some of you guys forget that?), but it's partly true. Ariza is very young and an amazing player. He deserves to get paid does he not? I'd say 8 million is worth it. I mean we're paying players like Sasha and Luke plenty for what? (well maybe not Luke all the time, but Sasha should have been pro-bono.)

There's no guarantee he'll play well elsewhere once he gets paid. I think, in this economy, teams will only shell out big bucks for guaranteed all-star caliber type performances every night, not on potential for the next couple of years. Look what happened to Ronnie. The Warriors offer him a hefty contract and ended up playing very limited minutes.

Ball is on ariza’s court. I think lakers should offer most they can and let ariza decide. If his agent insists no, its on ariza to fire his agent or not. ariza and lakers on the same page… but somebody forgot to give ariza’s manager the memo.
