NBA trade rumors engulf all the players, big or small. The Los Angeles Lakers are having a nightmare season, but some of their players are just chill about it. Chris Kaman was given another shot to play in LA, but he wouldn't mind moving.

His presence on the NBA Trade Rumor mill doesn't bother him.  Speaking to ESPN LA: "I don't care, I honestly don't care. It's not something that I want to do, but it's not going to make me go to sleep at night and have to stay awake all night tossing and turning thinking about it. I don't care. If they want to trade somebody, trade me, trade the next guy, it don't bother me. It's part of the business. The sooner that you realize it's a part of the business, the better off you're going to be. Just let it roll and let it happen. I'm not going to try to stop anything." 

"I've played a lot of years so far and sometimes it's just about having a coach who trusts what you do in the long run," said Kaman, who came into Friday averaging 8.4 points and 5.2 rebounds this season. "Sometimes people will give you a different opportunity to make mistakes. I had a coach [Mike Dunleavy] for seven years that kind of worked with me and let me play through things. I'm going to make mistakes, but I think ultimately, I've been doing this long enough to know that I'm a pretty solid basketball player all around and I bring a lot of different things to the table. 

Kaman, to his credit, is not all about fault-finding. He actually tries to understand his coach.: "And given time, sometimes I'm not going to play awesome, but there's a lot of pressure to win nowadays. More than it used to be. Guys are getting throats cut real quick. You got to mix it up and try to do anything you can. I think that's what [D'Antoni is doing]. Just searching."

Mike D'Antoni actually appreciates Kaman: "The biggest thing with Chris, he played real good defense. He clogged it up in there and offensively he's good anyway. But defensively, he played well. He did."
