Feel like we used up our magic luck beans last year.
Don't think we're going to stink enough to qualify for our pick. |

That would be both hilarious and awesome if it happened.
DeAngelo Russell
Jordan Clarkson
Ben Simmons
Julius Randle

Not bad. But the chances of being the worst team in the league and keeping the top 3 protected pick will be pretty damn low. _________________ Darvin Scam: https://media.tenor.com/images/3c15249955860a4b16b59e8ae035fb75/tenor.gif |

Don't the Lakers owe Philadelphia 76ers a draft pick from the Nash deal from a couple of years ago?

I thought we weren't going to be bad enough to keep our pick but with the tank commander still at the helm, I think Ben Simmons might be up to something _________________ My Dream Starting 5 next Season

Why not both?
The dream: lakers get 9th seed, Kobe retires, and make a big jump to the 1st pick in the lottery and draft Ben Simmons.
Sounds like the perfect season to me. _________________ Darvin Scam: https://media.tenor.com/images/3c15249955860a4b16b59e8ae035fb75/tenor.gif |

Well if we lure KD in, we might as well draft Skal Labissiere to cover that Center spot. He's also number 1 on Draft Express.
Russell
Clarkson
Durant
Randle
Labissiere
This works too. _________________ Darvin Scam: https://media.tenor.com/images/3c15249955860a4b16b59e8ae035fb75/tenor.gif |

I do not care at all. I am sick of bad basketball and losing. We tanked enough, it's time to do something and win some games. |

With Byron Scott coaching, we might not have a choice in the matter sadly. _________________ Darvin Scam: https://media.tenor.com/images/3c15249955860a4b16b59e8ae035fb75/tenor.gif |
