Man. Has to be Samaki Walker right? Maybe Slava during the Detroit series.

Smush Parker was terrible. But Samaki was Terri-bad.

Nash and Reid shouldn't even be on the list, they were just in the dying days of their careers when they were here.

Deng is definitely in the final years of his career.

Kwame Brown for all his flaws was a solid defensive big.

Smush Parker is hands down the worst starter the Lakers have had in recent memory. The only reason his NBA career lasted as long as it did was because he built up some name recognition while playing with the Lakers.

It's Ronnie and its not close. Guys like Deng and Nash would have been starting on other teams too. Metta could go here too but he doesn't have enough recent starts to qualify.

as far as starters go it's a 3 horse race with Smush, Chris Mihm and Deng. Deng statistically is the worst, Smush had no BBIQ and few skills and Mihm was very bad.

Give it to smush right now, but Deng is making a strong case. If this performance continues throughout the year he will not only be the worst Laker starter of all time, it might be the worst season any starter in the NBA has ever statistically had.

Jesus, it's only been 20 games. There's no way Deng should be in this poll after 20 games, against the likes of Kwa-MAY Brown and Smush.

Also, if you really wanted to troll everybody, you should add 2015-2016 Kobe to the list

Smush had some good games at least, let's see if Deng can even string a few of those together. So far based on cost/performance ratio he's one of the worst.

Yeah, don't know why folks are completely writing off Deng just 20 games in. I'm giving him a whole season before that. By that time Ingram will/should be the starter.

Only one of the options is making 18 million. Deng is the worst.

Dude. Nash will cost us 2 1st round picks. While we've been lucky to postpone payment, that's costly. And he ended up playing less.

If you want to go with high price/costly acquisitions, Nash, unfortunately due to injuries, was and will be worse than Deng.

Nash didn't make 18 million. Plus Nash sold jerseys. Deng is the worst.

Who cares about the money. Would you sacrifice cap space to have 2 #1 picks? Of course.

Sigh. This is pretty sad. We don't even have the patience to see it through more than 20 games and are concocting frankly, silly polls to already eulogize Deng.
