If the Lakers lose their pick, I can't see George being traded to the Lakers. Can't trade back to back 1st rounders, and if the Lakers fall out of the top 3, Philly gets their 2017 First Rounder and the Magic get their 2019 First Rounder. The earliest first rounder they could deal would be 2021 I believe. Lakers would either have to pony up their young players or hope he makes it to free agency.

Yeah a George trade is off the table if we lose the pick. shyt will be a disaster

I like Collins a lot more than Lauri.

Just depends what you need. Collins makes more sense for a team like Boston, but Markkanen has the higher upside overall.

 

[Monsanto]

you wrong about Lonzo man.

Let him go to Minnesota then. No expectations there.

He looks like a 12 PPG 6 assist kind of guy. Not bad but not exactly worth the headache. And his defense is like a Knicks player so he has that going for him.

I'll pray for Dennis Smith Jr on the Knicks.

Same d russ had more offensive polish coming out of college


I just hope la comes to their senses he has the best offensive game in the draft

This would make no sense, just trade the pick for PG if you're going to take Tatum top 3.

Wish Issac wasnt so damn skinny, he would be perfect next to Gordon and Vucevic i'd still take em at 5

he was an elite defender and an honorable Pac-12 All-Defense guy. His length, anticipation/instincts, speed are elite where do y'all get this B.S. from? Only 6 assists with his court vision?

It don't matter, you'll see

DSJ is only 6'2, is a so-so shooter, and already had a torn ACL in high school

Laker brehs yall need to be hitting up your pastors/imams/vodou whatever God you believe in because holy shyt




51% chance lakers pick goes to the sixers and the lakers would also lose their 2019 1st rounder



Your franchise is literally hanging in the balance

What time does it start?


I get frustrated because they always drag this shyt out longer than it should be

Multiple sources Everything I heard up until recently was they were all-in on Lonzo, taking him even w the #1, etc. Now they're kinda back to weighing the positives vs the potential risks, with Lavar being a factor.

If we get the 1st, Im on the phone with the Lakers or whoever else applicable and seeing what they'd be willing to give up to swap, still take Jackson with the 3rd pick and a nice little bonus to go along w him

.@Gambo987 is reporting that LaVar Ball COULD play a factor in whether the Suns draft Lonzo Ball. #NBADraftLottery
