So we can either get a star like curry or garbage. Great.

:patrice: Looks like the Grizzles going through some fukkery. How about Marc "Lakers Own" Gasol brehs? I think we can get him in FA in 2015 if we keep Pau, which looks like it will happen in the offseason. :manny: Kobe/2014 1st round pick/Pau/Marc can actually be a problem imo.
And :what: at Mike fukking Dunveley getting a coaching interview in 2014? :wtf: Wake me up from this bullshyt. :beli:

:aicmon: Marc is a DPOTY type center, right when he came back from injury the Grizz won 50 games and were the best defensive team in the league after his return, and he had Z-Bo at the 4, and Z-Bo is probably as bad as Pau on defense. Even though he had Tony Allen and Conley on the wings defending, without Marc, Memphis defense was bad. We could draft someone like Smart/Gordon, and get a 3 & D player at the 3, and that would probably be the best team to put around Kobe for one last run imo.

you need coaching breh, you take one of these kids and you develop them

Kobe wasn't a finished product overnight, you need to draft them and be patient. Obviously its not a sure thing but you gotta give it a chance.

A lot of you Lakers fans are new to this but you gotta look at the situation. Your franchise has no assets, you have an aging star who has a couple years left, your roster has no one on it. You need to swing and take someone who can be a core piece. If you hit on a lottery pick, its a GOOD thing. Even if it will take some time.

Yep, that's why the Lakers should take Lavine, and tell Kobe not to mess with him if he sucks a couple of games.

Just draft smart if he's there, don't trade the pick
