It's really unlikely this is going to work out the way you guys want. First of all, as another poster noted, we were awful last year and still landed in the 7th slot. To get Top 5 to clear the PHX protection would be extremely difficult.

Second, as bad as it was last year, the team was basically hammered by injuries. The first third of the season we were actually over .500.

A line-up of Lin/Kobe/Young/Randle/Hill + Marshall/Clarkson/Kelly/Sacre/X?/Bazemore? would not fool anyone into being a contender, but definitely not be as awful as a lot are thinking. It would be a .500 team probably, if Kobe is healthy and Randle is as NBA-ready as advertised.

You guys realize a team with Kobe, Hill, Lin, and Young is too good to tank?

Lakers only get the pick if it's top 5 (otherwise Suns have it).

There's no way the Lakers lose less than 20 games next year.

The Lakers are going to end next season WITHOUT a draft pick.

Hope everyone here enjoys a completely pointless season with nothing to show from it.

As much as I hated this tank mode mentality last year, I have to admit there is not much to look forward to for next year. At least last year at the beginning of the season, there was excitement. The FA season is not over but already I feel like crap about next season.

I'm pissed at Jimbo and Mitch. At least give us something to look forward to...

I was really annoyed by the pro-tank team people on LG last season, but i'm all aboard this season.

There's nothing to look forward to at all.

Anyone good in the draft? I saw some footage of that Jahlil Okafor kid that's being hyped. Wasn't impressed.
