**LA LAKERS THREAD** Sitting on 17! 2023-2024 offseason begins

Popovich trying to move up to take Jackson

That team has zero tradeable assets worth a top 4 pick.

legit question here. Say the order were the exact same just taking out the lakers. Would Ball get picked in the top 5? I dont see Philly, Boston, or Phoenix taking him and Sac. seems really high on Fox. So maybe orlando at 5 then?

He is number 1 on Phoenix's board. And before Philly traded up, he was there as well.

Sources: Several teams engaging with NY on Kristaps Porzingis - including Boston - are unwilling to meet Knicks demands for deal. So far.

Who gives a ****? We don't really know what any of these guys are until they get on the court in the league. Even Fultz.

but you been campaigning for lonzo as hard as lavar tho

Well I am assuming Philly is taking Fultz for sure.  But I figured Phoenix was higher on Jackson than on Ball seeing as they already had 2 PGs

 

[atlsfinest]

Have a feeling other GMs will celebrate if we take Lonzo

Fox and Jackson seem legit

He'd be gone @ 3 or 4 if we passed up on him. I feel that people have scrutinized Zo more than they have other prospects because of his dad's loud mouth. He's still an amazing prospect who has all-star potential in the right situation. It also helps that he fits perfectly into the style of play coach Walton wants.

Philly and Phoenix would definitely have I interest.

Nah they had Lonzo up there and would move Bledsoe.

Per Ramona Shelburne, Pacers were asking for either D'lo + 2 or DLo + Ingram and Magic said HELL to the NO.  Lets hope he doesnt panic and cave in (obviously Dlo will need to be replaced since he's no longer a Laker)

 

[BIG LEEMELONE]

Pacers refusing to let magic trade every young player and pick for a guy who promises to come to your team regardless. On the same level or worse than the old regime trying and failing to sign guys like Dwight/melo/lma?

I'm fine waiting for him for next summer or doing an expiring contract swap at the deadline. **** the Pacers.
