According to Peter Vecsey of the New York Post, the Los Angeles Lakers have a plan to try to acquire Nets star Jason kiss for a couple draft picks, Kwame Brown's expiring contract ($9M), Jordan Farmar($1M) and Vladimir radmanovic ($5.6M with an additional $19.2M over the next three seasons). Not unexpectedly, the Nets aren't interested in assuming Radmanovic's long-term guarantee. There's nothing not to love about Farmar, yet New Jersey already has a promising, young caretaker in Marcus williams.

The Lakers passed the chance to aquire Kidd last season after Nets requested Andrew Bynum.
