Jun 22, 2017 at 5:49 PM - OX1947: Gasol turned into a lemon, LO turned into a crack addict. I can only imagine what would happen to Dlo if the trade came back
Jun 22, 2017 at 5:49 PM - therealdeal: I think George might go tonight with how quiet Woj has been
Jun 22, 2017 at 5:50 PM - OX1947: i woudnt put it past the sleaze ball scumbags in this league pressuring pritchard to not trade to LA. i really believe thats what is going on
Jun 22, 2017 at 5:50 PM - JLaker17: If George is going to get traded to us, I think it gets announced around pick 20
Jun 22, 2017 at 5:51 PM - therealdeal: I called Kennard to Detroit before the game... I don't know what my record is on my last lottery go around
Jun 22, 2017 at 5:52 PM - 432J: hahaha very true ox
Jun 22, 2017 at 5:53 PM - therealdeal: are the nuggets picking at 13 still? I can't keep track with these moves.
Jun 22, 2017 at 5:53 PM - 432J: d-lo would probably retire if he had to play for LA again
Jun 22, 2017 at 5:54 PM - therealdeal: I'm thinking Jackson maybe to Denver unless they go big. I could also see Collins or Allen
Jun 22, 2017 at 5:54 PM - therealdeal: ah nvm
Jun 22, 2017 at 5:55 PM - therealdeal: Woj got the trade in
Jun 22, 2017 at 5:55 PM - therealdeal: The move makes sense for Utah
Jun 22, 2017 at 5:55 PM - Helljumper: My heart jumps everytime I see that Woj notification on my phone lol
Jun 22, 2017 at 5:55 PM - therealdeal: 13 for Lyles/24
Jun 22, 2017 at 5:55 PM - therealdeal: Mitchell goes to Utah. Helps take pressure off their search for a point guard
Jun 22, 2017 at 5:56 PM - therealdeal: they were one of the teams trying to get Beverley this eases that need
Jun 22, 2017 at 6:01 PM - therealdeal: Heat supposedly like TJ Leaf, but I would expect Justin Jackson
Jun 22, 2017 at 6:02 PM - Doc Brown: Bam Bam
Jun 22, 2017 at 6:02 PM - therealdeal: Insane pick Doc
Jun 22, 2017 at 6:02 PM - therealdeal: I like Bam a lot but how does he fit next to Whiteside?
Jun 22, 2017 at 6:02 PM - therealdeal: he better have a great jumper
Jun 22, 2017 at 6:03 PM - Weezy: Wow Bam went high
Jun 22, 2017 at 6:04 PM - OX1947: am i the only one who doesnt give a flying hoot watching the rest of the next 13 picks?
Jun 22, 2017 at 6:04 PM - Helljumper: So quiet on George front. Like if trade talks had died, I figured there would at least be noise about that.
Jun 22, 2017 at 6:04 PM - OX1947: as soon as the lakers pick 27, the trade is dead
Jun 22, 2017 at 6:05 PM - therealdeal: I really don't get the Bam pick. Solid player, but how does he fit?
Jun 22, 2017 at 6:05 PM - JLaker17: Like I said, around pick 20 if the trade is happening it will go down then
Jun 22, 2017 at 6:05 PM - JLaker17: If not, we'll see George next yera
Jun 22, 2017 at 6:06 PM - Weezy: This is definitely the boring part of the 1st round, 5 mins each team is a long time
Jun 22, 2017 at 6:06 PM - therealdeal: Woj says Boston talks stalled
Jun 22, 2017 at 6:06 PM - Helljumper: Boston and Indiana talks have stalled
Jun 22, 2017 at 6:06 PM - Doc Brown: Boston Indy talks stalled
Jun 22, 2017 at 6:06 PM - therealdeal:
Jun 22, 2017 at 6:06 PM - Doc Brown: Well we have no lives
Jun 22, 2017 at 6:06 PM - therealdeal: Kings taking Jackson

 

Jun 22, 2017 at 6:06 PM - Helljumper: Yup lmao
Jun 22, 2017 at 6:06 PM - therealdeal: Ball is life guys
Jun 22, 2017 at 6:07 PM - therealdeal: Great fit for the Kings. They needed a wing. They're going to have an insanely young team though.
Jun 22, 2017 at 6:07 PM - Weezy: Jackson had an awesome tournament, kings traded down and got a great player
Jun 22, 2017 at 6:07 PM - Doc Brown: Haha I've been watching for Woj like a hawk can't stop now
Jun 22, 2017 at 6:07 PM - SmoothOperator: Bam reminds me of Bismarck biyombo
Jun 22, 2017 at 6:07 PM - JLaker17: what could boston offer
Jun 22, 2017 at 6:07 PM - Doc Brown: I love Jackson, sucks he's going to the Kings
Jun 22, 2017 at 6:07 PM - 432J: PG to boston talks have stalled. great news
Jun 22, 2017 at 6:08 PM - Helljumper: Really sounds like Indiana's been desparately trying to drum up leverage but its falling apart as they get closer to 27/28
Jun 22, 2017 at 6:09 PM - JLaker17: Its almost like a former teammate of Ainge is trying to help
Jun 22, 2017 at 6:09 PM - Weezy: Lol
Jun 22, 2017 at 6:09 PM - OX1947: Woj should just say, PG talks have stalled for this year and get it over with.
Jun 22, 2017 at 6:09 PM - therealdeal: Indiana did their damnedest to drum up a market but it's collapsing now
Jun 22, 2017 at 6:10 PM - Doc Brown: It'd be hilarious if Pritchard is on the phone with Magic saying we have Boston giving us more ante up and Rob is in the back with Pg's agent on the phone laughing his a** off knowing the bluff
Jun 22, 2017 at 6:10 PM - KareemtheGreat33: delusional mofos
Jun 22, 2017 at 6:10 PM - Weezy: We saw the last 30 for 30, those green bastahds stick together and hate Lakers
Jun 22, 2017 at 6:10 PM - JLaker17: Its sort of win win
Jun 22, 2017 at 6:11 PM - JLaker17: We either get him for a late pick now, or he comes next year
Jun 22, 2017 at 6:11 PM - JLaker17: Market is gone now
Jun 22, 2017 at 6:11 PM - SmoothOperator: It'd be even better if they show PG sitting in the laker war room lol
Jun 22, 2017 at 6:11 PM - therealdeal: I hope we hold on to Randle now for sure
Jun 22, 2017 at 6:11 PM - therealdeal: should be no way we give up anything more than Clarkson/27/28
Jun 22, 2017 at 6:12 PM - 432J: have fun with a pissed off PG this season indy. great job
Jun 22, 2017 at 6:12 PM - Doc Brown: I'm still throwing him in, but I don't know the story, if the market is completely dead and we are at that point, I'd pull him back and tell them we are at that point you have no moves left
Jun 22, 2017 at 6:12 PM - OX1947: randle, clarkson, 27, 28 and a 2nd rounder in 2045. And let's GO
Jun 22, 2017 at 6:12 PM - Weezy: These sort of trades can drag out and keep trickling in even tomorrow though, happens every year
Jun 22, 2017 at 6:12 PM - SmoothOperator: I always felt Clarkson and Lavine were about the same level of talent. How does Lavine Dunn and 7 get Butler lol
Jun 22, 2017 at 6:13 PM - ElginTheGreat: Other teams market their young guys better period.
Jun 22, 2017 at 6:13 PM - JLaker17: We aren't going to pick anymore for Indy though, once our picks go tonight its pretty move over for us tonight
Jun 22, 2017 at 6:13 PM - ElginTheGreat: We go on and on about our young guys faults killing their value
Jun 22, 2017 at 6:13 PM - therealdeal: I'm in no rush to make a deal
Jun 22, 2017 at 6:13 PM - therealdeal: let the market continue to collapse
Jun 22, 2017 at 6:13 PM - JLaker17: Wow this spellcheck is bad
Jun 22, 2017 at 6:13 PM - therealdeal: I don't know SmoothOperator, but it helps our cause.

 

Jun 22, 2017 at 6:13 PM - 432J: yeah i don't see how this trade could still happen tomorrow after we make our 27th and 28th picks, unless indy tells LA who to pick. but then why not just make the trade tonight?
Jun 22, 2017 at 6:13 PM - JLaker17: Once 27/28 come and go, we probably don't get George this year
Jun 22, 2017 at 6:13 PM - ElginTheGreat: I'd rather not use Randle and Clarkson as I think we could use one of them to make another deal
Jun 22, 2017 at 6:14 PM - ElginTheGreat: but I wouldn't pass on George just to keep either of them.
Jun 22, 2017 at 6:14 PM - therealdeal: If a bum like Dunn, the #7 pick, and LaClarkson gets you a cost controlled star, what does a rental get you?
Jun 22, 2017 at 6:14 PM - LakerFanIam: JC+27/28+Future Pick.. Just get it done..
Jun 22, 2017 at 6:14 PM - JLaker17: Id love to have George this year, but if Pacers want to be stubborn about it...just stack up and sign him for nothing next year.
Jun 22, 2017 at 6:15 PM - therealdeal: Bulls go with OG? Semi
Jun 22, 2017 at 6:15 PM - OX1947: we pick at 27, its done. At least we will know. So we have 11 more picks to go
Jun 22, 2017 at 6:15 PM - therealdeal: or take a big? There's lots of bigs left
Jun 22, 2017 at 6:15 PM - JLaker17: Exactly real, that Butler deal killed any sort of market
Jun 22, 2017 at 6:15 PM - ElginTheGreat: No way Dunn and Lavine should have had more value than Russell, Clarkson, or Randle...
Jun 22, 2017 at 6:15 PM - Weezy: Seriously real, that Butler deal isn't leagues better than the Cousins deal was
Jun 22, 2017 at 6:15 PM - Doc Brown: Walton on Lonzo " He will improve our culture" - Shots effing fired at DAR
Jun 22, 2017 at 6:16 PM - OX1947: butler deal may have helped actually. someone bought a house in the neighborhood you want to buy a house in for below market value, now you can get one for less than you thought
Jun 22, 2017 at 6:16 PM - Weezy: Lavine is only pumped up from being in the dunk contest/a high flyer and playing with KAT
Jun 22, 2017 at 6:16 PM - therealdeal: I forgot that the Wolves had this pick
Jun 22, 2017 at 6:16 PM - therealdeal: They just got a rock solid prospect
Jun 22, 2017 at 6:16 PM - Doc Brown: I don't get the Lavine hype either
Jun 22, 2017 at 6:17 PM - therealdeal: that's the point OX
Jun 22, 2017 at 6:18 PM - Doc Brown: Embiid is awesome on social media but in return he gets pumped up like he some superstar in Philly, granted he dominated when he played, but that's the thing he never plays
Jun 22, 2017 at 6:19 PM - therealdeal: Bucks reaching like a kid in a cookie jar
Jun 22, 2017 at 6:19 PM - therealdeal: some solid prospects starting to float down to 27/28
Jun 22, 2017 at 6:19 PM - therealdeal: Indy better hurry up
Jun 22, 2017 at 6:20 PM - Weezy: I like embiid a lot, but he's played 31 games in 3 years. He's already treated like an all-star, let's not get ahead of ourselves. I wish him the best and good health tho
Jun 22, 2017 at 6:20 PM - Helljumper: Ok Indiana's about to be on the clock. Hopefully whatever source gives Woj the pick also gives him some info about PG
Jun 22, 2017 at 6:20 PM - Battle Tested20: normally I would say Bucks reaching but they seems to know how to reach
Jun 22, 2017 at 6:20 PM - Doc Brown: My body is ready for a Lakers trade for PG WOJ bomb
Jun 22, 2017 at 6:21 PM - JLaker17: Started with a Carr extension today, end with a PG to Lakers please
Jun 22, 2017 at 6:21 PM - Weezy: Luke giving Lonzo a lot of high praise tonight.
Jun 22, 2017 at 6:21 PM - Doc Brown: Wish we still had Huertas to put the trade over
Jun 22, 2017 at 6:21 PM - OX1947: luke may have been the final decision on getting dlo out
Jun 22, 2017 at 6:22 PM - Weezy: Culture changer, genius at pushing the ball, guy others gravitate to because he makes them better
Jun 22, 2017 at 6:22 PM - LakerFanIam: We Got Lonzo..!!! Great Day in Lakerland
Jun 22, 2017 at 6:22 PM - therealdeal: Man...

 

Jun 22, 2017 at 6:22 PM - therealdeal: Woj killing me right now
Jun 22, 2017 at 6:22 PM - OX1947: what did he say?
Jun 22, 2017 at 6:22 PM - Helljumper: Damn it, I saw Indiana and LA in the same tweet from Woj and got too excited to process what I was reading. Pick Leaf form UCLA
Jun 22, 2017 at 6:23 PM - therealdeal: solid pick for em
Jun 22, 2017 at 6:23 PM - therealdeal: Interesting fit next to Turner
Jun 22, 2017 at 6:23 PM - therealdeal: lots of shooting
Jun 22, 2017 at 6:23 PM - Doc Brown: Probably takes out Randle from the equation
Jun 22, 2017 at 6:23 PM - Weezy: Yeah, they don't really need Randle..
Jun 22, 2017 at 6:23 PM - JLaker17: Clarkson take him
Jun 22, 2017 at 6:23 PM - therealdeal: good point Doc
Jun 22, 2017 at 6:23 PM - SmoothOperator: What's the backup plan if Indy doesn't accept 27/28? Who should we take?
Jun 22, 2017 at 6:24 PM - wallangong: real sold me on Semi
Jun 22, 2017 at 6:24 PM - OX1947: BI
Jun 22, 2017 at 6:24 PM - OX1947: there is none really
Jun 22, 2017 at 6:24 PM - OX1947: most the lakers can offer is randle, clarkson and those picks
Jun 22, 2017 at 6:24 PM - Weezy: Well, I'm with real on Semi. Reminds me of Tarik with a jumper
Jun 22, 2017 at 6:24 PM - Lakers2015: Hilarious seeing Simmons and Embid run their mouth on Twitter. One moron hasn't played yet and the other fool injured himself at a concert.
Jun 22, 2017 at 6:24 PM - ElginTheGreat: Semi, Jordan Bell. There are a few guys I like that might still be there.
Jun 22, 2017 at 6:25 PM - ElginTheGreat: Really hoping we get that trade soon though
Jun 22, 2017 at 6:25 PM - Weezy: Get used to it, 2015, Lonzo has a target on his back thanks to pops
Jun 22, 2017 at 6:25 PM - Doc Brown: Remember what Butler went for, 27/28/Clarkson/Nance or future picks is still good in comparison
Jun 22, 2017 at 6:25 PM - therealdeal: John Collins still out there. Jarrett Allen still out there. OG and Semi still out there...
Jun 22, 2017 at 6:25 PM - therealdeal: 100% right Doc
Jun 22, 2017 at 6:25 PM - JLaker17: There is some nice players out there
Jun 22, 2017 at 6:25 PM - wallangong: definitely a target on his back but Lonzo seems cool. I don't think it'll get to him
Jun 22, 2017 at 6:26 PM - therealdeal: Ike Anigbogu still out there
Jun 22, 2017 at 6:26 PM - JLaker17: Could get to 27/28 and Pacers call us and we tell them to take a walk because of the quality out there
Jun 22, 2017 at 6:26 PM - therealdeal: Shams takes one off the board
Jun 22, 2017 at 6:27 PM - Weezy: Nah, if pacers say give us 27/28 I say done
Jun 22, 2017 at 6:28 PM - Battle Tested20: sorry if posted on here already
Jun 22, 2017 at 6:28 PM - Battle Tested20:
Jun 22, 2017 at 6:28 PM - Battle Tested20: some behind the scenes look at lonzo workout
Jun 22, 2017 at 6:28 PM - Battle Tested20: which we hadn't seen
Jun 22, 2017 at 6:28 PM - Khmrp: Dam wilsin wemt high
Jun 22, 2017 at 6:28 PM - Jaguar: Bucks are going to be loooong...

 

Jun 22, 2017 at 6:29 PM - OX1947: Jay Bilas analysis for picks 1 thru 60............"He has lots of upside, amazing talent, good player" repeat, rinse, repeat until the end of time
Jun 22, 2017 at 6:31 PM - Weezy: Ball's shot is funky, but it's really not a ton difrent than Russ's. He gets it off dang quick
Jun 22, 2017 at 6:31 PM - therealdeal: Kings having a great draft
Jun 22, 2017 at 6:31 PM - Battle Tested20: yes they are
Jun 22, 2017 at 6:31 PM - Weezy: Yeah, sucks to see lol
Jun 22, 2017 at 6:32 PM - therealdeal: I don't know if Giles amounts to anything, but worth a gamble for them at 20
Jun 22, 2017 at 6:32 PM - therealdeal: Jarrett Allen still on the board. By far the most talented kid left.
Jun 22, 2017 at 6:33 PM - 432J: giles was supposed to be a top 3 pick at one point
Jun 22, 2017 at 6:33 PM - Battle Tested20: Harry Giles to the Kings
Jun 22, 2017 at 6:33 PM - Weezy: A Kentucky, Duke, and North Carolina player
Jun 22, 2017 at 6:34 PM - Battle Tested20: kind of surprised because they have Skal and Cauley-Stein
Jun 22, 2017 at 6:34 PM - therealdeal: Giles is probably a long-term project to see if he can get healthy
Jun 22, 2017 at 6:34 PM - Battle Tested20: yep
Jun 22, 2017 at 6:34 PM - therealdeal: he'll do great as an energy guy at first
Jun 22, 2017 at 6:34 PM - OX1947: i know the panhandler down the street i give money too every morning who can run the Kings better than those saps who run it now
Jun 22, 2017 at 6:34 PM - JLaker17: Kind of excited to see who we take honestly
Jun 22, 2017 at 6:34 PM - Khmrp: Man espn is on delay? Im just at leaf lol
Jun 22, 2017 at 6:35 PM - therealdeal: Woj and Shams are breaking all the picks 2-3 picks before they're announced
Jun 22, 2017 at 6:35 PM - 432J: so if we draft with the 27th pick the PG deal is pretty much not happening huh
Jun 22, 2017 at 6:36 PM - therealdeal: I figure it probably isn't if we get there
Jun 22, 2017 at 6:36 PM - Weezy: Yeah I'm just following the Vertical guys so I don't have to watch the espn guys
Jun 22, 2017 at 6:36 PM - therealdeal: if I'm Rob I tell them they've got about 20 minutes
Jun 22, 2017 at 6:37 PM - Khmrp: Spoiling it for us espn watchers
Jun 22, 2017 at 6:37 PM - OX1947: guys, these idiots arent gonna trade him
Jun 22, 2017 at 6:37 PM - Doc Brown: They won't get s*** at the trade deadline for PG
Jun 22, 2017 at 6:37 PM - KareemtheGreat33: indy needs
Jun 22, 2017 at 6:37 PM - therealdeal: can you stream the Vertical show khrmp?
Jun 22, 2017 at 6:37 PM - Khmrp: Yes
Jun 22, 2017 at 6:37 PM - therealdeal: it's much better than ESPN's
Jun 22, 2017 at 6:37 PM - therealdeal: Agreed Doc. I just don't get why they would think his value will improve
Jun 22, 2017 at 6:38 PM - 432J: i wouldn't say they won't get anything at the deadline. i'd put money that some team would be delusional enough to think they can beat the warriors and would actually give something up for PG
Jun 22, 2017 at 6:38 PM - 432J: despite the fact that he'll probably bail in the offseason
Jun 22, 2017 at 6:38 PM - Weezy: I just think no team wants to be the team that helps the Lakers get back into relevance
Jun 22, 2017 at 6:39 PM - therealdeal: I'd be shocked if they went into the season with him
Jun 22, 2017 at 6:39 PM - Doc Brown: But it's harder because teams don't have cap space or fluidity as they do now and teams will start valuing picks in the 2nd half of the season

 

Jun 22, 2017 at 6:39 PM - JLaker17: Regardless they are helping us
Jun 22, 2017 at 6:39 PM - JLaker17: We either get him now, or later with more assets
Jun 22, 2017 at 6:40 PM - Weezy: Ok, but not directly helping us, indirectly is easier for them
Jun 22, 2017 at 6:40 PM - 432J: do we have a 1st round pick next year?
Jun 22, 2017 at 6:40 PM - Weezy: The league loves us being down
Jun 22, 2017 at 6:40 PM - JLaker17: Definitely
Jun 22, 2017 at 6:40 PM - therealdeal: Genuinely our picks will be helpful if/when we get those big names. Quality players on cheap deals are going to be essential.
Jun 22, 2017 at 6:40 PM - JLaker17: Magic helped give a boost to our name, I think we are okay
Jun 22, 2017 at 6:41 PM - therealdeal: watch the Lakers trade for LeBron tonight.
Jun 22, 2017 at 6:41 PM - Weezy: We are ok, and I think Ball is a player others will want to play with
Jun 22, 2017 at 6:42 PM - Battle Tested20: definitely
Jun 22, 2017 at 6:42 PM - therealdeal: Allen, OG, and Ojeleye are my top three on the board
Jun 22, 2017 at 6:42 PM - Battle Tested20: I was encourgaged by what Luke said after we drafted Lonzo in regards to changing the culture and playing much faster
Jun 22, 2017 at 6:43 PM - 432J: we dont have a first rounder next year do we?
Jun 22, 2017 at 6:43 PM - JLaker17: Lonzo...a guy that works hard and looks to get teammates involved first, what could go wrong?
Jun 22, 2017 at 6:43 PM - Battle Tested20: no
Jun 22, 2017 at 6:44 PM - Battle Tested20: @432J
Jun 22, 2017 at 6:44 PM - JLaker17: I could be wrong, but i don't think we have any pick next year
Jun 22, 2017 at 6:44 PM - Weezy: No 1st next year, finally no incentive to tank
Jun 22, 2017 at 6:44 PM - Savory Griddles: Did the Kings just take a center?
Jun 22, 2017 at 6:44 PM - OX1947: No, the C Bags have it. And then they will trade it for 2 future picks in 2033 and ainge will continue to have picks, forever
Jun 22, 2017 at 6:44 PM - Savory Griddles: I think we'll still tank cause consistency.
Jun 22, 2017 at 6:45 PM - Weezy: lol
Jun 22, 2017 at 6:45 PM - Weezy: We may lose a lot, but not on purpose. We get to root for wins again without being guilted
Jun 22, 2017 at 6:46 PM - therealdeal: I wouldn't be surprised if we trade up into somewhere here soon
Jun 22, 2017 at 6:46 PM - KareemtheGreat33: without George we will be bad unless Lopez, Lonzo and BI become unstoppable
Jun 22, 2017 at 6:46 PM - Savory Griddles: I don't know. They always say to play to your strengths. Tanking is our speciality
Jun 22, 2017 at 6:46 PM - Khmrp: I see Ferguson to okc for some reason lol
Jun 22, 2017 at 6:46 PM - 432J: i agree kareem
Jun 22, 2017 at 6:47 PM - 432J: we have no shooters
Jun 22, 2017 at 6:47 PM - Helljumper: Woj and Shams slacking off. Haven't spoiled OKC yet...
Jun 22, 2017 at 6:47 PM - Savory Griddles: It's a stealth tan, but thats how good we are at jt.k
Jun 22, 2017 at 6:47 PM - Khmrp: Trade dung and 28th for wade
Jun 22, 2017 at 6:47 PM - alam1108: its 7 and the second round hasn't even started yet
Jun 22, 2017 at 6:47 PM - Khmrp: He can be our stop gap pg lol

 

Jun 22, 2017 at 6:47 PM - therealdeal: OKC reaching too
Jun 22, 2017 at 6:47 PM - therealdeal: nice call khmrp
Jun 22, 2017 at 6:47 PM - Khmrp: Lol
Jun 22, 2017 at 6:48 PM - JLaker17: shams with the okc pick
Jun 22, 2017 at 6:48 PM - Savory Griddles: Honestly. I'd love to trade for Wade somehow.
Jun 22, 2017 at 6:48 PM - Helljumper: Deng for Wade
Jun 22, 2017 at 6:49 PM - Khmrp: We dont have a sg after all
Jun 22, 2017 at 6:49 PM - Savory Griddles: He'd be a great mentor
Jun 22, 2017 at 6:49 PM - therealdeal: I'd trade our two picks for Wade without a second's hesitation
Jun 22, 2017 at 6:49 PM - OX1947: would chicago take 27, 28 and deng for wade?
Jun 22, 2017 at 6:49 PM - therealdeal: salaries don't work though I don't think we have the cap room
Jun 22, 2017 at 6:49 PM - Savory Griddles: Black and brewer and the 28
Jun 22, 2017 at 6:49 PM - therealdeal: so Jarrett Allen is on the board for the Nets. What a steal for them.
Jun 22, 2017 at 6:50 PM - Khmrp: Don't we have 20mill in cap? Wade makes 23.5 to dung 18
Jun 22, 2017 at 6:50 PM - therealdeal: Shams breaks it
Jun 22, 2017 at 6:50 PM - OX1947: one thing that will be official by pick 27 is the brooklyn trade. so we have that
Jun 22, 2017 at 6:50 PM - Savory Griddles: Black and brewer gets us close. Saves them a ton of money
Jun 22, 2017 at 6:50 PM - JLaker17: Think its safe to say the George deal won't happen tonight...for us at least
Jun 22, 2017 at 6:51 PM - therealdeal: there's no way we can trade Deng/27/28 for Wade
Jun 22, 2017 at 6:51 PM - OX1947: thats the meat, i know it wuld take fillers
Jun 22, 2017 at 6:52 PM - Khmrp: Og or semi to us is good day
Jun 22, 2017 at 6:52 PM - Battle Tested20: @JLaker17 can't say that for sure. THe picks we make at 27 and 28 could be for IND
Jun 22, 2017 at 6:52 PM - Khmrp: N a sg
Jun 22, 2017 at 6:52 PM - therealdeal: agreed Khmrp
Jun 22, 2017 at 6:52 PM - Savory Griddles: I think Black plus Brewer and the 28th gets us close enough to absorb the rest, right? On Wade I mean
Jun 22, 2017 at 6:52 PM - OX1947: battle, love your optimisim, but, nah
Jun 22, 2017 at 6:53 PM - therealdeal: OG, Semi, and Anigbogu all on the board still
Jun 22, 2017 at 6:53 PM - JLaker17: Don't think we make the picks without the trade agreed to
Jun 22, 2017 at 6:53 PM - Battle Tested20: well if IND doesn't make a deal they are shooting themselves in the foot. Not me just being optimstic
Jun 22, 2017 at 6:53 PM - Savory Griddles: You jinxed us. They're all going in the next 5
Jun 22, 2017 at 6:53 PM - Helljumper: That Jimmy Butler trade broke pretty quickly out of nowhere. I don't think it's impossible for us to still make a trade before 27
Jun 22, 2017 at 6:53 PM - therealdeal: I did the same thing last year Savory and we ended up with Zubac
Jun 22, 2017 at 6:54 PM - Weezy: Yeah that's typically what happens to us in the late 20's savory, everyone we want goes juuust before us
Jun 22, 2017 at 6:55 PM - therealdeal: Pasceniks is somewhat interesting too
Jun 22, 2017 at 6:55 PM - therealdeal: more of a G-Leaguer though

 

Jun 22, 2017 at 6:55 PM - SmoothOperator: Maybe Indy is holding out down to the wire to see if the guys they want are still available at 27/28
Jun 22, 2017 at 6:55 PM - therealdeal: I'm still looking at Jawun Evans and Frank Jackson as well
Jun 22, 2017 at 6:56 PM - OX1947: 3 rookies coming into a team that needs to win. so frustrating
Jun 22, 2017 at 6:57 PM - SmoothOperator: Clarkson/Randle/27/28 > Lavine/Dunn/7. It's ridiculous, I read somewhere Indy asked for Lavine for PG and Mindy said no. They just don't want to deal PG to Lakers
Jun 22, 2017 at 6:57 PM - OX1947: yup
Jun 22, 2017 at 6:57 PM - Khmrp: Allen looks like one of the characters from dead presidents lol
Jun 22, 2017 at 6:58 PM - Savory Griddles: I'm starting to think they'll give him to Boston just to spite us
Jun 22, 2017 at 6:58 PM - therealdeal: I'm fine if they do Savory
Jun 22, 2017 at 6:58 PM - Savory Griddles: And I mean GIVE him
Jun 22, 2017 at 6:58 PM - OX1947: he looks like a jagoff
Jun 22, 2017 at 6:58 PM - therealdeal: that means Boston loses assets for a season
Jun 22, 2017 at 6:58 PM - Khmrp: Agreed
Jun 22, 2017 at 6:58 PM - therealdeal: Allen really reminds me of a smaller Bynum
Jun 22, 2017 at 6:59 PM - therealdeal: in his approach and his talent level
Jun 22, 2017 at 6:59 PM - Savory Griddles: No. They send him for like Jan Crowder and a couple second rounders
Jun 22, 2017 at 6:59 PM - Helljumper: Only watched one highlight video a few days ago but agree with the Bynum comparison
Jun 22, 2017 at 6:59 PM - OX1947: You think Savory uses a Griddle when he cooks pancakes?
Jun 22, 2017 at 6:59 PM - therealdeal: Then Indiana gets to see Paul George 4 times that year and damages their standing with future FAs
Jun 22, 2017 at 6:59 PM - Savory Griddles: No. I use a toaster
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:00 PM - therealdeal: would be a brutal blow to an already small market
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:00 PM - Savory Griddles: Just pour it in
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:00 PM - OX1947: I like how everyone is talking doom for the Pacers. Like we care, hahahahahhaha
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:00 PM - therealdeal: Raptors make the right move
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:01 PM - ElginTheGreat: OG gone to the Raptors
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:01 PM - therealdeal: Anunoby is a bit of an injury risk, but a great pick in the 20s
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:01 PM - Khmrp: Dammit
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:01 PM - ElginTheGreat: Agreed real
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:02 PM - Battle Tested20: damn we have to wait till 4 more picks for semi to survive
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:02 PM - therealdeal: Still out there: Anigbogu, Ojeleye, Evans. Ojeleye and Evans are the best fits
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:02 PM - OX1947: Blackpeoplemeet.com? Really ESPN? Really?
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:02 PM - JLaker17: 3 more picks
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:02 PM - therealdeal: Anigbogu would be an absolute steal if he fell to us
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:03 PM - Savory Griddles: I use blackpeoplemeet.com. I never get much traction
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:03 PM - OmarE: Damnit og going to the raptors
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:03 PM - Battle Tested20: sorry but I dont think Semi gets past POR

 

Jun 22, 2017 at 7:03 PM - therealdeal: probably not Battle
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:04 PM - ElginTheGreat: What, you don't want black people to meet OX?
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:04 PM - OmarE: Best case is anigbogu and semi
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:04 PM - jbiggs: so close to our picks
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:04 PM - jbiggs: can barely hang in there
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:04 PM - therealdeal: did someone trade for the #24?
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:04 PM - Bryant: what do you think of hartenstein real?
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:05 PM - Battle Tested20: heck I could see Semi going to DEN
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:05 PM - therealdeal: hartenstein is a major unknown. multi talented.
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:05 PM - Savory Griddles: So anyone want to know what I'm drinking?
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:05 PM - therealdeal: could be worth a gamble that late
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:05 PM - OX1947: Jay Bilas says this guy is gonna be good
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:05 PM - KareemtheGreat33: we can get hartenstein and stash or Dleague him
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:06 PM - therealdeal: Aldridge says Magic maybe trading out
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:06 PM - Weezy: Oh, well, if Jay Bilas said it...
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:06 PM - therealdeal: more importantly though he says late picks carrying value right now
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:06 PM - Savory Griddles: Milk. I'm drinking milk
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:07 PM - OX1947: OG has the personality of a dead squirel in a trash can
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:07 PM - KareemtheGreat33: sorry Savory I was about to guess
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:07 PM - gill: Ramona: "Then the line the Lakers were holding the conference call on got another call and somehow hung up on Lonzo."
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:07 PM - gill: Oooohhh...
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:07 PM - jbiggs: lmao ox
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:07 PM - Savory Griddles: Anyone else seeing messages appear for a split second and then disappear never to return?
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:07 PM - therealdeal: I think the Nuggets could go Semi here
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:08 PM - Doc Brown: DAR cut the line...........IM THE POINT GUARD UP IN THIS PIECE
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:08 PM - KareemtheGreat33: don't think you're being ignored lol
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:08 PM - Weezy: Yes, our picks could have some nice value, you hear that Indy?
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:08 PM - therealdeal: try refreshing the page Savory
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:08 PM - OX1947: the cool thing is, 27 will be offical closure on dlo trade. we have that at least
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:08 PM - Weezy: Yes, it happens sometimes Savory. Sometimes they pop back up, sometimes not
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:09 PM - OX1947: savory, that happened 20 times already to me.
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:09 PM - therealdeal: Nuggets go with Lydon
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:09 PM - OmarE: Josh Hart?? Is he talented?
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:09 PM - therealdeal: awesome for us
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:09 PM - RushDelivery: Indy would be smart to take 27/28/Clarkson, but I have a feeling they would rather wait more

 

Jun 22, 2017 at 7:09 PM - JLaker17: Nuggets taking lydon
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:09 PM - wallangong: really didn't want lydon
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:09 PM - therealdeal: it was happening to me, but if you refresh your page it'll help
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:09 PM - Savory Griddles: I have been posting ideas for TV shows and like to me singing shortness. Is nobody seeing them?
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:09 PM - Battle Tested20: slight reach
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:09 PM - JLaker17: memphis just got the 25th pick
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:10 PM - therealdeal: me neither wallangong. too soft. reminds me of Ryan Kelly
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:10 PM - Savory Griddles: Omg autocorrect
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:10 PM - Battle Tested20: 2 more picks to survive - semi and anigbogu
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:11 PM - therealdeal: Magic could be trading out... I wish they'd keep the pick there and take a dummy
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:11 PM - JLaker17: magic traded out
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:11 PM - davriver209: I'd just let the dlo trade go up in flames
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:11 PM - therealdeal: Orlando traded the 25th pick for a 2nd rounder next year
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:11 PM - therealdeal: that makes no sense
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:11 PM - SmoothOperator: Isn't it the 35th pick?
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:11 PM - Weezy: Jay Bilas "best available" has the guys we probably want pretty low
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:11 PM - OX1947: poor philly, they have a bust, Bynum Part II, a guy who hasnt done anything for 2 years and a guy who couldnt win 10 games in college running their team and they think they are gonna start winning. Saric is their only legit player right now
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:12 PM - davriver209: I'd let dlo trade go up in flames, cause if there's no pg13, then what's the point?
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:12 PM - therealdeal: what does Memphis need?
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:13 PM - ElginTheGreat: I actually agree on Philly. Not sold on that team despite all the high picks. Embiid is their best guy and he can't stay on the floor
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:13 PM - ElginTheGreat: DLo is definitely gone
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:13 PM - therealdeal: no matter what happens tonight, Russell is no longer a Laker
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:13 PM - therealdeal: got to let it go
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:13 PM - ElginTheGreat: Time to turn the page. Lonzo's our guy now.
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:13 PM - chkad: "I am sorry. The Memphis-Magic trade is for Orlando’s second-round pick, 35th overall. My mistake."
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:14 PM - Lakers2015: Yep. Nobody would ever trade with us again if we pulled out of the deal.
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:14 PM - therealdeal: that makes more sense
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:14 PM - chkad: now makes sense
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:14 PM - ElginTheGreat: Yeah. No way we back out of the deal now.
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:14 PM - ElginTheGreat: Luke's comments alone show the team is ready to move forward with Ball.
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:15 PM - davriver209: lol I can't let go of dlo... I had really high hopes for him lol
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:16 PM - ElginTheGreat: For what its worth, I think a fresh start will do him good.
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:16 PM - therealdeal: you and every Laker blogger dav
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:16 PM - Lakers2015: We all did. I was one of his biggest fans during the draft, but it just didn't work out.
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:16 PM - Savory Griddles: Any shooters left?

 

Jun 22, 2017 at 7:16 PM - RushDelivery: As soon as we reach pick 27, I assume the Nets trade will become finalized
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:16 PM - therealdeal: Evans, Frank Jackson, Ojeleye are all great shooters
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:17 PM - Weezy: Serena winters: "I asked Lonzo if there was any specific Laker he was really looking forward to playing w/loved his game. Without hesitation - Brandon Ingram"
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:17 PM - therealdeal: Orlando trying to trade the pick
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:17 PM - OX1947: because he is gonna get BI the ball in spots where he will be lethal
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:17 PM - Savory Griddles: It would have been amazing if London answered Russell
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:17 PM - JLaker17: @ShamsCharania 4s4 seconds ago More Sources: Philadelphia is acquiring Orlando's No. 25 pick in the NBA Draft to select Anžejs Pasečņiks.
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:17 PM - RushDelivery: I hope Lonzo and Ingram develop awesome chemistry in their first year together
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:18 PM - therealdeal: wow
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:18 PM - tada: lonzo and ingram... can't wait to see them on the court together
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:18 PM - ElginTheGreat: Really hope we're not putting too much on Ingram too soon. Like him, but he's still got a ways to go.
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:18 PM - Savory Griddles: Lonzo
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:18 PM - therealdeal: JLakers17 you're quick
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:18 PM - Battle Tested20: one thing Ingram better always have his head up looking for the ball
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:18 PM - OX1947: wilbon wont shut up about jimmy butler. SHUT UP!
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:18 PM - Battle Tested20: Philly another BIG, lol
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:19 PM - therealdeal: One more pick and we can get either Semi or Ike
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:19 PM - therealdeal: good night so far
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:19 PM - Doc Brown: Philadelphia 70centers
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:19 PM - OX1947: hahahahahahahahahahah
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:19 PM - RushDelivery: Or both therealdeal
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:19 PM - therealdeal: hopefully Rush
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:19 PM - Weezy: I'm surprised how much talent is left right now
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:19 PM - OX1947: ill take Okafor if they wanted to dump him. The irony would be hilarious
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:19 PM - Battle Tested20: yes both would be amazing Semi and Ike
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:19 PM - JLaker17: @WojVerticalNBA 5s5 seconds ago More Portland will select Purdue's Caleb Swanigan with the No. 26 pick, league source tells @TheVertical.
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:20 PM - therealdeal: Wow Portland takes Swanigan
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:20 PM - therealdeal: crazy
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:20 PM - therealdeal: I hope we take Semi and Ike and run
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:20 PM - OX1947: grown man named Fran? C'mon
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:20 PM - JLaker17: Nice players available!
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:20 PM - therealdeal: please tell me that's what's going on
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:20 PM - Battle Tested20: wow, Semi COME ON DOWN
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:20 PM - Savory Griddles: We will take neither
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:20 PM - RushDelivery: According to Woj

 

Jun 22, 2017 at 7:20 PM - JLaker17: we will take some nobody
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:20 PM - ElginTheGreat: Alright...trade time
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:20 PM - RushDelivery: Hey Indy, you sure you don't want the 27 and 28?
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:21 PM - therealdeal: and for the record, I'd still trade those two for George immediately
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:21 PM - OX1947: is that the same Semi from Coming to 'MERICA?
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:21 PM - wallangong: those 2 make sense for indy as well so they're pretty safe picks
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:21 PM - therealdeal: Ike would be a solid fit next to Turner for sure
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:21 PM - OmarE: Please draft semi and anig
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:22 PM - ElginTheGreat: If we use the pick I expect us to continue our pattern of taking someone noone has mentioned
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:22 PM - OX1947: Laker fan: Lakers probably drafting for Indiana and then trading to Houston for Lou Williams so they can get George
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:22 PM - OX1947: Reality: Nothing is gonna happen tonight
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:23 PM - JLaker17: Think the George ship has sailed for us
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:23 PM - RushDelivery: You know what, Indy not trading PG to us will be a blessing in disguise assuming we do not blow these two picks
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:23 PM - ElginTheGreat: I wouldn't mind Derrick White though
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:24 PM - therealdeal: White wouldn't be the worst
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:24 PM - therealdeal: I just don't like the idea of passing with two solid players in place
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:24 PM - RushDelivery: We still get PG next summer, and we keep our picks and young players
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:24 PM - therealdeal: Semi specifically fills a need
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:24 PM - OX1947: lakers need to trade these picks. Lakers dont need 3 rookies on a 26 win team
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:25 PM - RushDelivery: Pacers are about to severely blow their best chance to trade PG
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:25 PM - ElginTheGreat: Real - i like Semi too
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:25 PM - Helljumper: Yeah, I'd think if possible we trade one of these down to get a few second rounders or something. dont need too many guaranteed contracts
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:25 PM - ElginTheGreat: That's the upside of back to back picks here
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:25 PM - therealdeal: silence so far
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:25 PM - Weezy: Surprised no leak from Woj or Shams
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:26 PM - therealdeal: something coming?
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:26 PM - gill: no Woj bomb? Fine... I've been saving this all night: "F*** you Pacers!"
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:26 PM - therealdeal: ..................
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:26 PM - RushDelivery: Doubt it, the Pacers have made their decision and won't trade PG
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:26 PM - gill: crickets...
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:26 PM - OX1947: hahaahahahah
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:26 PM - KareemtheGreat33: Let's get Lonzo's teammate
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:26 PM - therealdeal: that's fine but we might not be trading for George
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:26 PM - Savory Griddles: Woj stringing us along
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:26 PM - JLaker17: baa too late for a trade

 

Jun 22, 2017 at 7:27 PM - JLaker17: na'
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:27 PM - KareemtheGreat33: I like IKE
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:27 PM - JLaker17: @ShamsCharania now More Lakers are selecting Utah's Kyle Kuzma with the No. 27 pick in the NBA Draft, league sources say.
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:28 PM - SmoothOperator: Woj doesn't know the 27 pick because Indiana has to call Lakers, who had to call nets, to call the league to make the pick lol
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:28 PM - davriver209: I know I'm a broken record, but we should've kept dlo... I didn't agree with that trade at all
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:28 PM - Weezy: Who?
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:28 PM - therealdeal: oh no
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:28 PM - therealdeal: Kuzma is a shooting forward
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:28 PM - therealdeal: I'm not high on him
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:28 PM - gill: Jin Kazuma from Tekken?
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:28 PM - therealdeal: yikes
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:28 PM - OX1947: WHO?
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:28 PM - Doc Brown: Another PF
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:28 PM - RushDelivery: Well... maybe this pick is for the Pacers...
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:29 PM - Savory Griddles: He sounds white
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:29 PM - Weezy: Ugh
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:29 PM - therealdeal: I do not like this pick
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:29 PM - JLaker17: what a eh pick
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:29 PM - RushDelivery: He sounds like a blown pick with all the talent still on the board
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:29 PM - OX1947: hahahahahahha, it will be 2020 and everyone will think its a pick for the pacers
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:30 PM - Helljumper: Trading 28 to Utah. Seals the deal. No PG13
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:30 PM - therealdeal: and we traded out of the 28 pick
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:30 PM - therealdeal: wow
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:30 PM - ElginTheGreat: I knew we would pick someone no one heard of
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:30 PM - Weezy: We traded the 28 to Utah. Wtf?
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:30 PM - gill: The Utah Jazz have a deal to acquire the Lakers No. 28 pick and will draft UNC's Tony Bradley, sources say.
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:30 PM - RushDelivery: What...
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:30 PM - Battle Tested20: how could we miss out on Semi
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:30 PM - Doc Brown: WTF
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:30 PM - Khmrp: For?
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:30 PM - Battle Tested20: haha
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:30 PM - Weezy: Oh my head
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:30 PM - gill: What do we get back???
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:30 PM - RushDelivery: I don't understand this
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:30 PM - alam1108: should i be mad?

 

Jun 22, 2017 at 7:30 PM - Doc Brown: 30 and 42

Jun 22, 2017 at 7:31 PM - wallangong: oh okay that's not bad
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:31 PM - Khmrp: 30 can still get semi
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:31 PM - SmoothOperator: That's not terrible, moved back two spots to get a 2nd
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:31 PM - Battle Tested20: okay but lets go after Semi, not bad value at all
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:31 PM - Doc Brown: Why did we take a PF that can't shoot
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:31 PM - RushDelivery: If semi goes 29...
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:31 PM - therealdeal: I mean if they miss on both Semi and Ike I don't think it's a good move still
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:31 PM - ElginTheGreat: Welp
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:31 PM - alam1108: we get 30 and 42
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:31 PM - Weezy: Semi will go 29th lol
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:31 PM - tada: who da hell is kuzma?
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:31 PM - Battle Tested20: haha
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:31 PM - RushDelivery: Spurs picking 29 right?
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:31 PM - JLaker17: semi will make it to 30, and we won't take him
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:31 PM - ElginTheGreat: vertical guys seem to like kuzma
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:32 PM - Battle Tested20: great Spurs dont F around
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:32 PM - Khmrp: 30th was gsw
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:32 PM - Battle Tested20: they'll get semi
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:32 PM - therealdeal: I could be wrong on Kuzma but I'm just not that big a fan
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:32 PM - Weezy: Don't get the Kuzma pick
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:32 PM - KareemtheGreat33: finally we got Kuz
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:32 PM - Battle Tested20: The Vertical guys think it was a smart move for us
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:32 PM - Khmrp: Eson shows kuzma as a sf
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:32 PM - OX1947: hahahahahahaha
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:32 PM - therealdeal: we needed a shooter I guess
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:32 PM - OX1947: Kuz
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:33 PM - therealdeal: I could see us trading Randle more now to be honest
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:33 PM - JLaker17: @Mike_Bresnahan 49s49 seconds ago More Lakers get University of Utah PF Kyle Kuzma with 27th pick. He can shoot 3s, had a great combine in Chicago and strong workout with Lakers.
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:33 PM - Khmrp: Kuz n zuuu lol
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:33 PM - Weezy: We have Randle and nance, where he gonna play?
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:33 PM - OmarE: Maybe the pacers wanted three picks
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:33 PM - Savory Griddles: Do we have more than 2 guards

 

Jun 22, 2017 at 7:33 PM - RushDelivery: Kuzma doesn't really address a need
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:33 PM - Doc Brown: Dude shot 32% from 3 and 26% from 3 another year
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:33 PM - KareemtheGreat33: south bay lakers baby
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:33 PM - ElginTheGreat:
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:33 PM - therealdeal: he's a little better of a shooter than his numbers look Doc
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:34 PM - tada: best talent available with these later picks
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:34 PM - therealdeal: he's got a solid stroke
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:34 PM - KareemtheGreat33: IKE
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:34 PM - therealdeal: I just don't think he's that talented. Hopefully I'm wrong.
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:34 PM - ElginTheGreat: I would have preferred Paul George
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:34 PM - Khmrp: F indy, im keeoing these picks, they can have 42nd and a future 1st lol
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:35 PM - Savory Griddles: Yeah. I'd have liked pg over kuz too
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:35 PM - tada: looks like Ben Simmons when looking 5ft from my monitor
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:35 PM - Battle Tested20: yeah at this point I think Magic and Rob are just giving IND the finger and saying good luck but we're through with this crap
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:35 PM - Battle Tested20: we'll get PG in the summer
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:35 PM - RushDelivery: Lakers need to have a strong pick at 30
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:36 PM - Battle Tested20: oh thats why Ike is sliding knee issue
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:36 PM - therealdeal: We'll still have a shot at either Semi or Ike at 30
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:36 PM - RushDelivery: Semi would be nice
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:36 PM - SmoothOperator: My brain had a completely different image of Kyle kuzma compared to what they showed on ESPN lol
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:36 PM - JLaker17: we will draft someone no one wants lol
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:36 PM - therealdeal: he has an existing knee issue Battle? Because he played with one during the year, but I thought he was past it
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:37 PM - Savory Griddles: I doubt we draft semi after taking kuz
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:37 PM - ElginTheGreat: We need a shooter.
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:37 PM - RushDelivery: Could we really blow 3 picks?
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:37 PM - therealdeal: I really don't see Kuzma as a SF. I hope I'm way off on him.
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:38 PM - tada: we'll draft 3 kawhi leonards
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:38 PM - Battle Tested20: The Vertical guys are like us wondering why the hell hasn't semi been picked
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:38 PM - kdctran: Are we keeping Kuz?
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:38 PM - JLaker17: @ShamsCharania 7s8 seconds ago More Sources: San Antonio is selecting Derrick White with the No. 29 overall pick in the NBA Draft.
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:38 PM - therealdeal: JL you're on fire right now
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:38 PM - ElginTheGreat: White will do well with the Spurs
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:38 PM - therealdeal: Okay nab Semi now at 30
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:38 PM - JLaker17: Have nothing else to do
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:38 PM - OX1947: If im Lonzo, when Kyle comes into the training facility, i would say "Sup kuz"

 

Jun 22, 2017 at 7:38 PM - ElginTheGreat: Maybe we take Semi here...I doubt it though. lol
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:38 PM - RushDelivery: JL is our Woj
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:38 PM - JLaker17: Expected to have George already lol
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:39 PM - 432J: did they announce the russell trade?
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:39 PM - Battle Tested20: well we get another chance at Semi because Derrick White going to SPurs
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:39 PM - therealdeal: White is a solid pick for Spurs
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:39 PM - therealdeal: very Spurs
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:39 PM - Battle Tested20: NOW GET SEMI, please
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:39 PM - JLaker17: Kuzma wa also 1st team all defense in pac-12
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:40 PM - Weezy: I don't want 4 rookies! lol
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:40 PM - JLaker17: @ShamsCharania 4s5 seconds ago More Sources: Lakers are selecting Josh Hart with the No. 30 overall pick in the NBA Draft.
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:40 PM - therealdeal: Just saw the Anigbogu post Battle
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:40 PM - RushDelivery: Sigh
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:40 PM - davriver209: Are lakers still trying to get pg13? Or they just wanted two more picks for no reason?
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:40 PM - therealdeal: funny:
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:41 PM - JLaker17: pick is in
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:41 PM - JLaker17: @ShamsCharania 4s5 seconds ago More Sources: Lakers are selecting Josh Hart with the No. 30 overall pick in the NBA Draft.
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:41 PM - tada: impossible to guess who the lakers draft with these later picks
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:41 PM - Weezy: Mehhhhh
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:41 PM - davriver209: Plz tell me we aren't keeping these guys....
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:41 PM - 432J: PG isn't happening this season guys. time to move on
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:41 PM - therealdeal: honestly Hart is a good kid and I'm not mad about it, but with the 30th pick? C'mon
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:41 PM - Savory Griddles: Josh hart.
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:41 PM - Battle Tested20: DAMN
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:41 PM - Khmrp: Frank Jackson pls
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:41 PM - alam1108: 4 new rookies, gg. this week started so well, what happened
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:41 PM - 432J: hart is a good shooter isn't he?
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:41 PM - Battle Tested20: I just don't get it
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:41 PM - Battle Tested20: hart is a poor man JC
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:41 PM - Khmrp: Aww man we took some 5yr senior?
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:42 PM - RushDelivery: No idea what the Lakers are thinking
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:42 PM - davriver209: So we get rid of dlo... we get 4 rookies, no pg13.... man....
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:42 PM - therealdeal: Hart is a good shooter, yes
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:42 PM - ElginTheGreat: Hart is a shooter. I get it.
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:42 PM - 432J: russell for lopez and kuzma

 

Jun 22, 2017 at 7:42 PM - 432J: LOL
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:42 PM - ElginTheGreat: Hart will be good for the Pacers
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:43 PM - therealdeal: if I'm honest with myself Hart is a solid pick and he fits well with what the team is trying to do
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:43 PM - OX1947: Good Job Mag, way to make things happen. Kuz and Brooks for Dlo.
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:43 PM - 432J: magic and rob off to a pretty crappy start
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:43 PM - Battle Tested20: the sooner people can get off the Russell trade the better.
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:43 PM - 432J: bring mitch back?
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:43 PM - therealdeal: Medina says the picks aren't off the table for a trade
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:43 PM - Battle Tested20: time to let it go
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:43 PM - LakerFanIam: You're all insane
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:44 PM - Helljumper: So yeah, we were dumb for trying to dump salary so early and also Pritchard/Bird are douches
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:44 PM - 432J: :Mitchthumbs:
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:44 PM - therealdeal: I don't understand the bashing. Lopez is better than Russell. Kuzma and his contract are more valuable than Mozgov
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:44 PM - JLaker17: don't get why pacers would want these guys over just the draft picks 20 minutes ago
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:44 PM - therealdeal: who knows JL?
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:44 PM - 432J: oh well, let's just hope PG is serious about this "i want to be a laker" talk
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:44 PM - therealdeal: but they're not getting **** now
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:45 PM - Helljumper: Lopez is not better than Russell
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:45 PM - therealdeal: and these sorts of picks can be valuable cheap assets for when we start clearing space
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:45 PM - JLaker17: pacers arent trading him
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:45 PM - therealdeal: yes he is HJ. Objectively right now Lopez is the superior player.
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:45 PM - ElginTheGreat: The trade was DLo and Mosgov for George and Lopez. Not sure why anyone would be mad at that
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:45 PM - therealdeal: Russell might have more upside, but right now today Lopez is a better basketball player than D'Angelo Russell
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:45 PM - Doc Brown: Two replacements for Clarkson and Nance
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:46 PM - Savory Griddles: Lopez is better now. But that's a bad argument because he's also better than ingram
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:46 PM - Helljumper: Elgin, George isnt on our team
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:46 PM - ElginTheGreat: Helljumper - yes he is. Let me have this....
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:46 PM - Lakers2015: I think some put too much stock into Russell's numbers. He put those numbers up on a terrible team.
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:46 PM - therealdeal: It's not a bad argument, it's an argument about today and the sort of upside you see in the guys
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:46 PM - JLaker17: @EricPincus 18s18 seconds ago More Based on what I saw during workouts at Lakers - Kuzma and Hart (and Ball) are players they really wanted - doubt they're trade pieces
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:47 PM - 432J: pritchard is a ******* idiot. taking the risk that someone will overpay for a rental
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:47 PM - KareemtheGreat33: let's move on
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:47 PM - RushDelivery: I see why the Lakers picked Hart, just tough to watch them pass on Semi twice
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:47 PM - Doc Brown: Replacements for Clarkson and Nance
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:47 PM - Helljumper: But Lopez is better because of the numbers he put up on the Nets?

 

Jun 22, 2017 at 7:47 PM - Lakers2015: Lonzo Ball will make people forget all about D'Angelo Russell.
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:47 PM - Weezy: You know, I genuinely thought the Pacers would cave tonight
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:48 PM - ElginTheGreat: Paul George will make everyone forget all about D'Angelo Russell
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:48 PM - Lakers2015: Lopez has been a much more consistent player over the course of his career. Consistency has been an issue for Russell.
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:48 PM - OX1947: Anyone know where PG landed yet?
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:48 PM - Battle Tested20: haha Pacers are just killing themselves slowly
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:48 PM - KareemtheGreat33: 12 months is a short time
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:48 PM - therealdeal: Russell might be better than Lopez one day, but he isn't right now and I agree with the Lakers that I'm not sure Russell will ever reach his potential
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:48 PM - OX1947: im gonna guess he didnt ride shotgun in the moving truck
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:48 PM - therealdeal: I hope he does
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:48 PM - chkad: Josh Hart is Brogdon 2.0, could be our starting SG.
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:49 PM - Weezy: I like Hart, but I don't want 4 damn rookies!
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:49 PM - RushDelivery: I do like how both are picks are touted as great defenders
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:49 PM - Doc Brown: Maybe the Pacers didn't want the picks and the Lakers were waiting to see who fell in the draft, if they got the guys they wanted, easier to give up guys from old regime
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:49 PM - OX1947: randle and clarkson are being overrated by people in here. Pacers didnt want them.
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:49 PM - Lakers2015: Well we wouldn't if the Pacers would stop being so damn stubborn.
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:49 PM - RushDelivery: Defense is something we need
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:49 PM - Doc Brown: I came here tonight for PG so I'm just finding ways to keep it alive
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:49 PM - therealdeal: I'm with you Doc. I think these moves make Clarkson and Randle easier to trade
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:50 PM - Jaguar: Are Kuzma and Hart replacements for Randle and Clarkson? Seems like it
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:50 PM - 432J: we'll just have to wait a year for PG
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:50 PM - RushDelivery: The Pacers made it clear that they would rather shoot themselves in the foot and keep waiting to trade PG
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:50 PM - 432J: you guys think indy will accept randle and clarkson for PG?
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:50 PM - therealdeal: I think they should
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:51 PM - OX1947: I wouldnt.
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:51 PM - 432J: one of them+2 first rounders seems like the better deal honestly
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:51 PM - Weezy: I now HOPE They do
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:51 PM - therealdeal: I can't imagine there's better offers out there and they've got upside
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:51 PM - RushDelivery: We shouldn't offer anything more than Deng and a rookie or two if they call in the future
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:51 PM - Battle Tested20: replacements for Randle and JC, at this point IND had their chance with us. They can take scraps and or trade with someone else and we can wait'
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:51 PM - Savory Griddles: Guys, we kinda need Hart. We have no guards.
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:51 PM - OX1947: if im the pacers
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:51 PM - Doc Brown: If they got something better he would have been gone already
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:51 PM - ElginTheGreat: I sure hope these moves make it easier to trade because if we don't end up with George I'm gonna be pissed
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:51 PM - OmarE: Ike may be a project but he's athletic and strong as hell why nobody drafted him yet is baffling

 

Jun 22, 2017 at 7:52 PM - ElginTheGreat: Ike has knee issues at a young age. That will kill any big man's draft stock
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:52 PM - Battle Tested20: knee issues is what the guy at the Vertical were hearing from GMs.
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:52 PM - therealdeal: He must have some serious knee issues if Giles and OG went in the 1st but Anigbogu didn't
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:52 PM - therealdeal: didn't kill Giles
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:52 PM - Battle Tested20: Its scaring teams
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:52 PM - 432J: i'd rather just wait on PG at this point than trade both clarkson AND randle
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:52 PM - svtzr: I remember the exact same reaction when we got Nance
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:53 PM - svtzr: Everyone was saying why'd we draft him in the 1st and how they wanted other players
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:53 PM - Savory Griddles: Later guys. Not sticking around for 42
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:53 PM - ElginTheGreat: I'm just not that high on Randle and Clarkson. Also like the thought of just cleaning house with everyone tainted by the Byron era.
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:53 PM - therealdeal: look svtzr I understand both are good fits and decent picks, but I am partial to Semi
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:53 PM - ElginTheGreat: Josh hart comps
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:53 PM - svtzr: I think our scouting team deserves the benefit of the doubt, they've been doing a great job for a while now!
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:53 PM - OX1947: you guys would have forgotten randle and clarkson faster than dlo had PG came. believe me.
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:53 PM - svtzr: Maybe Semi will be there at 42?
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:53 PM - Weezy: I'm not super down on these picks, I like Hart, but again, 4 rookies?!
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:54 PM - therealdeal: could be
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:54 PM - svtzr: Unless they did the trade to offer two 1's and a 2nd as well as Randle/Clarkson
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:54 PM - Khmrp: Draft n stash
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:54 PM - therealdeal: Charlotte nabs Frank Jackson. Great pick
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:54 PM - Helljumper: Woj: No expectation in Indiana for a George trade tonight but it is fluid and that could change
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:54 PM - 432J: i'd much rathey they keep randle. he showed signs of improvement last season. clarkson i do not mind them parting with
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:55 PM - gill: Hart being compared to Brogdon. I'll take that!
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:55 PM - therealdeal: Hart had a great college career and is a solid player. If I'm being impartial he makes great sense with a late 1st. Very Nance Jr.-ish
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:55 PM - OX1947: if a trade were to happen tonight, it would be a 3 team trade.
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:56 PM - RushDelivery: Yeah I agree Hart is solid and addresses a need at SG
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:56 PM - therealdeal: Pelicans trade for Frank Jackson. Great fit for him there. Good opportunity for early minutes too
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:56 PM - RushDelivery: Still not high on Kuzma but that could change
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:57 PM - chkad: Monte Morris at 42. that guy can lead the second unit.
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:57 PM - svtzr: What's our team looking like at the moment?
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:57 PM - LakerFanIam: The good news is.. Indy did not get anyone to give them 2 first round Draft Picks, so the leverage has shifted back to the Lakers.
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:57 PM - Weezy: svtzr, YOUNG
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:57 PM - ElginTheGreat: I like the Hart pick
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:57 PM - RushDelivery: Indy had lost all leverage now
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:58 PM - RushDelivery: But they decided to be stubborn, so I am looking forward to watching PG walk next summer and they get nothing for him

 

Jun 22, 2017 at 7:58 PM - Weezy: We currently look like minny and Philly of recent years
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:59 PM - gill: Trust the Process, Weezy
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:59 PM - Lakers2015: The Lakers have had all the leverage ever since Paul George made it be known he was gonna sign with the Lakers next year.
Jun 22, 2017 at 7:59 PM - 432J: it'll be hilarious if PG stays in indy the entire season and they lose him for nothing. i doubt it happens but that would be too funny. don't see how pritchard would keep his job after that
Jun 22, 2017 at 8:00 PM - Weezy: We just don't have incentive to suck this year, gill, we don't have a 1st round pick next season
Jun 22, 2017 at 8:00 PM - svtzr: If we don't get PG now, it's going to be a tough season to watch, winning 1/3 or 1/4 games
Jun 22, 2017 at 8:00 PM - 432J: yeah that's the crappy part about having to wait. we are going to be terrible next season with no d-lo and no PG
Jun 22, 2017 at 8:00 PM - RushDelivery: 432J it could happen, many Pacers fans have been vocal about wanting to lose PG for nothing more the wanting the Lakers "garbage" offer as they call it
Jun 22, 2017 at 8:01 PM - LakerFanIam: I don't see how Indy doesn't trade him this Summer.. He'll have zero value at the trade deadline & he can just walk next Summer.
Jun 22, 2017 at 8:01 PM - chkad: well, we have Lonzo, playoff spot is guaranteed
Jun 22, 2017 at 8:01 PM - svtzr: We've lost Russell, Lou and Young in the back court which really helped us get that early start rolling at 10/10
Jun 22, 2017 at 8:02 PM - Lakers2015: I don't think we'll be terrible next year. Lonzo immediately makes this team better. Ingram and Zubac will progress. Lopez is a huge upgrade over Mozgov.
Jun 22, 2017 at 8:02 PM - LakerFanIam: I'm still loving Ball, Ingram, Zu, Nance & Black. JC & Randle are both expendable to me.
Jun 22, 2017 at 8:02 PM - 432J: because pritchard is an idiot and bird could possibly be in his ear about doing anything he can to not trade him to LA
Jun 22, 2017 at 8:02 PM - therealdeal: I feel like fans are really overrating Russell's impact on our wins
Jun 22, 2017 at 8:03 PM - gill: I believe in Lonzo in improving this team. I think we need one more to lead the team though just to be "good enough" cuz as Weezy said, we don't have picks.
Jun 22, 2017 at 8:03 PM - 432J: d-lo and young were the only guys who could shoot last season. now they're both gone. ball's 3 pt shooting at the NBA level is no guarantee
Jun 22, 2017 at 8:03 PM - gill: And that Hart pick. I don't know why, but I'm excited for Brogdon 2.0
Jun 22, 2017 at 8:03 PM - Lakers2015: Russell was an average shooter. Not like he was Steph Curry.
Jun 22, 2017 at 8:03 PM - svtzr: I don't think Russell added that many wins by himself, but young, russell and lou are at the impact a rookie ball will have - so for wins I see us as par for the course there... now how many wins does lopez add? 3-5?
Jun 22, 2017 at 8:04 PM - Lakers2015: His shot was so up and down.
Jun 22, 2017 at 8:04 PM - therealdeal: Hart, Lopez, Ball, and Kuzma are all shooters.
Jun 22, 2017 at 8:04 PM - LakerFanIam: We have a ton of cap space & young players on desirable contracts.. We're in a really good spot..
Jun 22, 2017 at 8:04 PM - therealdeal: if you want to worry, worry about our defense
Jun 22, 2017 at 8:04 PM - therealdeal: The more I think about it, the more I like the Hart pick a lot.
Jun 22, 2017 at 8:04 PM - 432J: well that's a given TRD
Jun 22, 2017 at 8:05 PM - svtzr: I like the Hart pick, if he can shoot it at the 36-38% mark and bring some of the defence he has shown - I would be ecstatic
Jun 22, 2017 at 8:05 PM - therealdeal: Rabb, Anigbogu, Ojeleye, Bell, Bolden, Brooks, and Evans still out ther
Jun 22, 2017 at 8:05 PM - svtzr: Kinda surprised that OKC didn't take him
Jun 22, 2017 at 8:06 PM - Weezy: Ball/Ennis? Clarkson/Hart/Nwaba? Ingram/Brewer/Deng Randle/Nance/Kuzma Lopez/Zubac/Black?Robinson?
Jun 22, 2017 at 8:06 PM - Weezy: Current roster = bad
Jun 22, 2017 at 8:06 PM - svtzr: Yeah we are a 20-30 win team I think
Jun 22, 2017 at 8:06 PM - therealdeal: 30 wins
Jun 22, 2017 at 8:06 PM - therealdeal: 4 more than last year
Jun 22, 2017 at 8:07 PM - 432J: i'm going to predict 24 wins
