Not good.

And I'd take Cauley-Stein over Russell.

Deangelo Russell doesnt grade out well as an NBA player. He's not a top 5 pick by any stretch.

Even with lack of offense Cauley-Stein is a legit 7 footer who can basically guard the floor and will rebound on both ends.

Yeah, because we can LOSE our pick. The Knicks still have the 2nd worst record in the league and can't lose theirs. How can you even compare the two? At 5 all it would've taken was one team to jump ahead for us to lose it. I was more interested in us securing it than finishing 1, 2 or 3.
What about when you said the same thing last season about needing the Lakers to lose every game? Even though we would not have lost our pick without it being top 5 protected?

Finishing 7th is a bit different from finishing 2nd. Don't you think? You didn't even want to tank last year.

And we drafted Randle, whom most Laker fans like a lot for the future. And we got the 7th pick by the randomness of the lottery, as you said in this thread about NY.

This is the epic level of fukkery, this team is cursed. This winning at the end of the season shyt is the equivalent of that kid trying to catch the ball at the cubs vs marlins game and then cubs losing the game with all that lead they had :mjlol:

the definition of insanity :russ:

We were in the 6th to 9th range most of last year. Majority of laker fans wanted us to move up to the 1st to 4th range to have a better shot at landing Embiid, Wiggins or Parker. And you were against tanking. For some odd reason you wanted us to win meaningless game. So that we could end up in the bottom half of the draft lottery. It made no sense and it still doesn't.
