Kobe with 31 pts in a win over the Wiz. Glad he gave us some flashback game finally.

amazing stat and hair lineThe reason for our Tank:
That kid Simmons is a beast! Hope we could get him come draft night.amazing stat and hair line
He might be the most "sure thing" since Lebron
I'd trade 2 of our young studs and the #2 or #3 pick for the top pick

I'm sure Essential's been up in here and convincing y'all that the Lakers are better than this, that they shouldn't tank, he probably thought they'd win 35 games this season (got respect for you tho bro, long time no talk!)

I'm being a realist
Always said that the team would look like a 20 win team for a long period of time, and then the 2nd half they'll turn it on a bit... Just because Russell, Randle & Clarkson will be better, and become more comfortable.
And there's nothing we can do about that... Other than starting to sit those 3, which is counter productive.

na dude, you can still play the 3 young bucks and still continue the tank - don't worry, ya'll will still a bottom 3 team
You just gotta be on "team tank" and deal with it, is that possible for you tho?
Can't front, it does get weird rooting for your favorite team to lose but hey man - future.
I did last year.
And it all depends on how they progress.. They could hit a brick wall, but if they play well.... They'll sneak wins in.
I want them to play at their best level as much as they can for rookies and 2nd year players... If they lose, they lose... But I highly doubt that these 3 based on their skill sets can't / won't sneak in wins. Won't make them a playoff team by any means, far from it. But they can still pick up wins, especially as Russell & Randle get more comfortable, and put together consistent strings of good games.
And if it's those 3 who do it, it's worth it.
That's my position on it.
Respect it, but I'm gonna have to disagree amigo.
Of course you want them to play well and learn the game, but that can be accomplished while tanking - Sort of making it a Win/Win.
Simmons really changes things tho.
Since 1985, only 4 times has the worst team won the # 1 pick. So just 12.9% of the time. Based on that, you have to tank, but can't tank too well....
So it doesn't really maximize chances at all to get the # 1 pick by being in the worst pick.
It's a damn crapshoot when it's a protected # 3 pick... When are you going to realize that the lottery isn't as simple as losing the most games will guarantee you anything.
We go through this year after year, after year.
Because we could tank, be the worst team, and still lose the pick. Just take the season how it will come. If we keep the pick, great. If we lose the pick, it sucks. But it isn't the setback that it would have been had we lost it last year. Although, we'd be in contention for it this year without Russell, and likely Rondo.
