    If we're in the Finals in 2-3 years, I wouldn't care who we beat (or even lost to for the most part). We'd be waaaaaaaaaaaaaay ahead of schedule.

    Well I was 100% certain it would be Ball when we actually kept the pick

    But I was all for Ball since the day he was born

    Rams in the early 2000s were suppose to win 4 or 5 super bowls. Shaq and Kobe were suppose to win 8. San Antonio and the Patriots, best run orgs in sports, had 10 and 7 year gaps in titles with all time greats on it.

    Reports, ya reports, said Iggy wasn't gonna leave but now he is entertaining offers this summer. Which is the common sense thing to do. He is a 2 time champ, probably thinks he is still a starter and has a finals MVP. Iggy will get a huge deal and the depth in GS is down 1. Then when Curry and will take the max, sorry, not buying that they will take 20 mil over 30 mil. They work in California, they are gonna get rear rodded in taxes without the discount.

    Anyways, beating the C Bags in the Finals is, how can I say this, more savory ;)

    The only reports I saw was someone doing the math on how Warriors would keep Iggy and Livingston. But also, he can't change his mind? Maybe he wasn't planning to but for whatever reason decides to test free agency.

    Iggy will get a 4 year 80 million contract this summer. He ain't taking 10 million per to stay. And if he does, I'll be the first to ban myself from LakersBall for a month. I'll get a avatar that says banned. And I will endure the ridicule that LakersBall participates will throw at me and I will have to read and take it with no response.

    Magic is like, "I kicked AIDS butt, you think you scare me Danny Boy?"

    I know it was just HIV, but it sounds better this way.

    We done our due diligence and worked out a lot of prospects, which is commendable...but looks like it will ultimately be Lonzo, as most people suspected. Although I would love to see the Kentucky boy Fox in the P&G, I will definitely be satisfied with Ball, who does seem to be the best fit here. I've said all along those two and Fultz are the three best in the draft and are all future stars, as long as we landed one of them it would be a successful draft. It looks like we will do just that. Ready for draft night!

    The breakdowns of his game particularly on Lakerfilmroom won me over. I always liked him but the more I researched the better I feel about his fit on the team and his potential compared to the other guys available

    Sure, that's fair, but I don't see anything transcendent.

    We'll see. I want to see this starting Summer League. I want him to dominate Summer League. Then I want him to win ROY.

    Oh, and after every bad game, bad pass, bad mistake, bad turnover, bad shot, any hint of negative rumor(s) associated with him, I'm going to be on him just like you are on Russell.

    Fair enough?

    Smokescreen. We're trading the #2 pick for Kevin Love.
