I would hate to see Raja come off the LA bench for many reason, but what strikes is the fact that he can hit timely threes but also provide solid defense. Much like how james posey was a key asset in the celtics '08 rchaampionship run, Bell could do what posey does at a cheaper price. That improves the Lakers crappy bench a lot considering how bad they were during the regular season. 4 years ago Laker fans hated Bell, but if the Lakers do sign him they would immediately forget about '06 and embrace him.
