That carries weight, and is likely a dream for him, could really see him wanting to pursue that as it is a once in a career opportunity.
Plus he probably will have more merchandising power in L.A. that will help make up for a lower salary.
Other thing you have is that you know the Buss family will always spend to try and win a Championship.

I think Derozan will end up in LA, but there's no chance he has more merchandising power in LA. He'd just a small fish in a big pond there. He's a footnote compared to Lebron, Durant, Griffin, Wade, Harden, etc. in the US. He has a 30+ Million market in Canada and he's top of the food chain here when it comes to basketball.
