Ballers Wanna Ball, Rollers Wanna Roll, But We're Taking All--The Official 2017-2018 Lakers Thread

[Premeditated]

Ingram is the one player I had high hopes for this season after the D'Angelo debacle. Has he really been THAT bad? I've only been watching the games in and out and haven't really seen him on the court. Meanwhile Lonzo can't score if he was the only nikka on an Island full of Kardashian bytches. Randle's playstyle still looking like a grown man who thinks he's playing with little kids by bum rushing to the rim and still bricking. Clarkson is still....Clarkson.


ahh well, atleast we can watch D'Gawd light up Barclay center and help nets get the 8th spot.

Ingram needs 2 more years before he even attempts to be the man on a team. Not saying it's impossible in the future but for him to be the man in 2017 is impossible. Magic is tripping. We might fukk around and get the first pick this year cause we are lottery bound as fukk

Ingram is overthinking it out there. He's trying to be the go to guy because of all the pressure. And they tweaked his shot over the summer so yeah.

I don't know why you all are surprise by Magic. This is who he is. How he see things is how he takes it. He probably heard all the Durant comparison at Duke and took it as gospel without really studying Ingram's game. Dude is captian obvious and gets caught up in all the sauce. He's a real surface person. Did you all not see when he was introducing Lonzo at the press conference. I cringe so hard at the boasting he was doing. "don't break on my records nah Lonzo, just leave a little bet for me"


it's gonna be another looong season

Not surprised just wished dude didn't put these crazy expectations on the young dudes. They saw how quick they shipped out DLO and they get out there on the court and overthink shyt trying to live up to Magic's hype.

Yup, too much trying to be a scorer himself rather than the ball moving and getting easy looks

Actually, we keep it if we finish 2-5 in the lottery, but anything beyond that we lose it.

L.A. Lakers' 2018 1st round pick to Philadelphia (via Phoenix) or to Boston (via Phoenix to Philadelphia) protected for selections 1 and 6-30; if this pick falls on any of its protected selections and is therefore retained by Philadelphia, then Boston will instead receive the more favorable of Philadelphia's 2019 1st round pick protected for selection 1 and Sacramento's 2019 1st round pick protected for selection 1 (via Philadelphia) and Philadelphia will receive the less favorable or the protected of these two picks

Nah man we don't have the pick at all. That's the pick we traded to Phoenix in the Steve Nash deal. It finally conveyed to Philly after all these years who got the pick from Phoenix in the Brandon Knight trade.

Be an idiot, brehs. Your linked article clearly states the Lakers don't have that pick.
