I made this poll yesterday and it disappeared.....so here it is again.

Even more possible today if we're willing to part with our #2 pick so they can get Josh Jackson. Only us and the 76ers (due to Celtics trading the #1 pick to them) can guarantee them JJ.

#2 pick (Ball) or Porzingis....which is better for us?

Damn straight

Offer Randle and #2 and see if they bite.

Then seal the deal on a PG13 trade.

You wanna lure Lebron? That's how the hell you do it.

Feel like Porzingis could go to PHX for Bender and #4

Ask yourself - what team is harder to match up with?

Lonzo/Ingram/PG13

Porky/Ingram/PG13

Lakers would become the 2nd toughest team to match-up with in the NBA behind the Warriors with Porky, Ingram and PG13.

Even the Warriors would have trouble defending that much size and length.

That's assuming that Lonzo and Ingram both live up to the hype.

I'd take a core of George, Porzingis and potentially Lebron. If that's a legit possibility...trade anyone and everyone to make it happen.

Knicks want a top 5 pick plus young stud according to reports I saw.
They will want #2 AND Ingram.

That is a painful price because the Lakers could have drafted Porzingis. This is frustrating!

Boston traded down to #3.....we pick before them. Only 76ers and us can assure them JJ.

Would do 2, 27, 28, Randle or JC. Might not be accepted, but that's what I would offer.

No thanks, after Porzingis blew off the exit meetings with Phil and is currently not taking his calls, he's likely to pull that diva act again including here. Phil is still bent about the exit meetings and is unleashing his "Kobe for Kidd/Marion" level rage right now.

Let's just do 2015 over and draft the right guy this time.

Then there'd be no need to trade for him.

I think that would get it done, 3 first rd picks, including #2 + JR. That's a very good haul and would kick off a true rebuild for NY with them also having #8.

And that's the reason you give up that much to get him.

Porky, PG and Lebron would be a true Big 3. Add BI and you're really cooking.

I hope we draft the right player this year, someone that would be coveted for 29 other franchises and that is going to retire as a Lakers with a statue in front of the Staples and the jersey on the rafters, I just don't want to trade this pick.

Porzingis was a thing of the past, we had the chance to draft him, 76ers had the chance to draft him ... time to move from 2015 draft and from this shameful period in our history.

I hope this is the last lottery pick we are going to select for the next 15 years.

Would you rather trade Ingram or #2 for Porzingis if given the choice?
