Honestly all the shyt about Lavar ball being a distraction and a nuisance is overblown.

At the end of the day all Lavar is doing is running his mouth. Way bigger shyt than a big mouth parent has circled around NBA prospects and not affected them or the teams they were drafted by.

But then again they did take Ingram over Thon Maker and that is looking dumb as hell right now.

:stopitslime:

Revisionist history here. Nobody had any idea where Thon Maker would be drafted. Lot of mock drafts had him either in the 20's or even in the Second round. People were weary about the age controversy and competition he played against. Thankfully for the Bucks it worked out, however you're forgetting how much of a shock it was that he was drafted 10th overall.

If Lakers can get an extra future pick or a young player I wouldn't be mad if they traded down 2-3 spots.

You saying we should trade Russell for our 2018 pick back??

Oh hell no. I'm just saying if a team like Phoenix, Sacramento, or 76ers are desperate for a player at 2 then I wouldn't mind if the Lakers could get them to tack on a future 1st rounder or something and trade down a few slots. I think between the top 4-5 that I'm happy with whoever they draft so why not try and get an extra asset. But nah I don't want Ingram or Russell to go anywhere.

Lonzo Ball to the Lakers is a done deal.They had a reality show based in Beverly Hills ready to go months ago.

Magic knew the Lakers were getting the #2 pick a month ago.

Luke Walton slipped and let the cat out the bag a few weeks back.."Magic already let me know we're getting our pick this year.That was a relief"

Reporters had to nudge him on some "Smile & pretend like you're joking" shyt because he looked more serious than a heart attack.

Ball is 100% a Laker.....nothing's changing

I often wonder why people don't do this more

Draft who you know a team wants. Then trade for their pick and another player

I'm sure if ainge took ball, they could definitely get the 2nd or 3rd pick and another player for him
Because the downside is they say "fukk it" and then you're stuck with a player you don't really want. Do you really want their 28th or 33rd pick that much?
