We Will Rise Again: Official 2014 Laker offseason thread

[MenacingMonk]

Why are Laker fans even upset? It was a 70% we were picking either 6th or 7th. Be happy we didn't fall to 9th.

And a "1.7%" shot at CLE getting number 1, but they got it.

 

[Mr. Foxx Foxx]

I'm sick to my stomach brehs

 

[Swagnificent]

fukk the entire league. No doubt in my mind it's rigged. We draft Vonleh I'm rioting.

that would be a damn good pick. i want us to get either Vonleh, Smart, or Gordon. just don't want nothing to do with Randle.

this is a deep draft. you can find an all-star beyond the top 3.

I played with the ESPN machine earlier today and we fell 9th. 3 teams lower than us moved ahead. Its crazy, but shyt happens. That's why its called the lottery.

 

[Dwight Howard]

Chad Ford has Noah going in the top 5 after the Draft Combine. NBA GMs were impressed by his performance.

a good prospect will be available regardless then. lets assume Embiid, Exum, Parker, Wiggins, and Smart are gone. this means the 6th team will either take Gordon, Vonleh, or Randle. if they take Vonleh, we choose between Gordon and Randle, etc

id be excited about any of those guys.

 

[Destined-2-Shine_HNIC]

Almost have to reach for Zach Lavine at number 7. High upside. Athlete with a jumpshot. Gonna take some development but the it factor is there.

All we had to do was throw away ONE season and lose as much as possible in exchange for a potential 10-20 year run. We're finished until Kobe retires at the least, get used to it brehs.

Who do you think will go to us? If Vonleh is mocked top 5 and smart is liked by boston then we might have a legit shot at exum. I'd be happy with that.

C'mon breh the Cavs getting top 5 picks 4 years in a row don't seem suspicious to you?

 

[CantStop]

Honestly I ain't even mad at our spot. There's no difference between 6th and 7th really but I'm furious that Cavs get another fukking first pick. Either way we have a great chance to pick Marcus Smart.

Gordon or Smart.

Nope. They had the 2nd, 3rd, 3rd and 9th worst records when they won. If the league wanted to rig the lottery the Lakers and Celtics would have both been in the top 3. Not the Bucks, Sixers and Cavs. shyt is random.

assuming the top 3 are accounted in Wiggins, Parker, Embiid..

Orlando have pick #4. Exum likes Orlando, Orlando needs point guard.

Utah is at 5. they just drafted a PG, so no Smart here. Maybe they take Randle or Vonleh

Boston at 6 take the remainder or Randle/Vonleh

Lakers then choose from Aaron Gordon or Smart

fukk this pick. I know I'm in the minority, but I want it shipped out for Love.

Then figure out a way to sign Melo.
