If the Lakers lose their pick that means they've got next years pick tho. Lakers fans so goddamn annoying I hope they lose the pick but it's not the end of the world.

They could use Mo Bamba or DeAndre Ayton more than the top picks in this draft IMHO.

The question is if they can bottom out once more with D'Snitchelo, Randle, Clarkson and INGRAM probably improving. It's also hard to imagine Luol being this trashy again for a whole season after being pretty decent in Miami as a PF.

Zubac too.. Lakers will probably try and pull the plug the first chance they get next season.. Pretty sure thats the move..

Ingrams gonna work with Kobe this offseason..

Should be interesting to see how they play it.. If it was me I'd look to unload some assets and down-shift into another tank..

Yeah but if they were dead serious about maximizing assets, they'd have pushed hard to become 2nd worst this year. Why do it next year, when players are truly improved and you gotta hold them back together with the coach? Doesn't make sense to me at least.
 
The problem with tanking is even if the FO or the coach wants the team to lose, it's still up to the players to play bad. But players don't want to play bad, they want to showcase what they got. They don't want some 'rookie' to replace them next year neither.

Well this is the thing. Next years draft u have this better crop of 7'ers who can play PF.. It's been widely reported the Lakers and Paul George have a ton of mutual interest.

If you're talking about George being like the final piece to the rebuild, I think, ideally, I'd rather have the last big lotto pick be Mo Bamba(DeAndre Ayton, **** even Mitchell Robinson..) next year even over Lonzo Ball this year, as their fanbase is so desperately hoping for...
 
Nice moment here at the Pepsi Center as Westbrook broke the record for most triple doubles in a season.



All the Nuggets fan on their feet applauding - it's really great to see.
 
Skal with another beastly statline. Assists, blocks and ofc the deft perimeter touch... Local headlines read "Skal Labissiere flashes immense talent as he works to make draft experts look foolish"
