The silver lining in all of this is if we keep our pick next year, the 2019 first round pick we owe to the Magic turns into 2 second rounders

Kept the draft pick, fired Byron Scott, hired Luke Walton and drafted Brandon Ingram...Kept the draft pick, fired Byron Scott, hired Luke Walton and drafted Brandon Ingram...Kept the draft pick, fired Byron Scott, hired Luke Walton and drafted Brandon Ingram...Kept the draft pick, fired Byron Scott, hired Luke Walton and drafted Brandon Ingram...Kept the draft pick, fired Byron Scott, hired Luke Walton and drafted Brandon Ingram...Kept the draft pick, fired Byron Scott, hired Luke Walton and drafted Brandon Ingram...Kept the draft pick, fired Byron Scott, hired Lu...

and that has to do what with free agency

Whiteside is gonna sign with Dallas that has a 100 year old Dirk and no upside on the roster, Miami can't even sign him, and the Lakers won't even get a look with 60 million on cap space and tons of young guns.

Whiteside was out of the goddamn league 2 years ago. This is a FO issue. Period the end. They tried to fill a competitive team with boozer, Lin. And last year with lou bass and Hilbert. Fell *** backwards into these picks.

The truth right here. The day JIM BUSS leaves, is the day we are back. Bring Phil back, bring the logo back, hell bring Magic back. All this sack of crap has done is ruined the Laker name

Word lol. Hopefully we get lucky in the lottery (again)

I shudder to think of where this franchise would be if the lottery didn't bless us with Dlo & Ingram. There would be literally NOTHING to offer. Like I even doubt Luke would've wanted to come if we didn't have those 2 lol.

 

[Maximus Meridius]

Y'all gotta stop acting like the sky is falling.

This.

Are yall forgetting we were historically bad the past 2 seasons?


We had to tear everything down and rebuild. Whiteside is 27. Our best players are 20 and 19. Let these dudes build something, then maybe FA's will come.

@ keeping next years top 3 protected pick

The tank commander and mr. 30 chucks a night are gone fellas. Time for team tank to take a hiatus

Yeah, this team is still going to be bad next year.  Maybe not nets bad, but we will still be bad if we strike out.

@ bringing Phil back, please keep him away from this team.

mos def. we still gon suck.

being in the west would help another tank run, but i just dont see how we'd realistically get the #2 pick again unless we got lucky in the lottery.
I dont see us being bottom 3 bad in the standings, record wise.

No kidding, it may seem bad now, but the knicks are just making ridiculous moves just to make the playoffs.  That team is going to be in basketball purgatory for the next 4 years with Rose, Melo, and Noah.

Yeah it will be a challenge.  The magic will be bad, sixers should be relatively bad still, nets will be horrible, and the suns will probably be bad again.  Pending and big unexpected signings, I see this as a 25 win team next year.

Well Rose's contract is off the books in 2017, but paying Noah at 18 mil is :x

Rose is for sure getting a max from Phil off of name alone.

It's been a good off-season for the above alone. Trying to keep myself sane.

We avoided the black hole aka Derozen. And drafted a future great scorer. It's all good family.

@DWolfsonKSTP (1/2) Local NBA FA buzz: Orono HS alum Jon Leuer has the Suns, Lakers, + NYK, among teams interested. Good under-the-radar FA, IMO.

@DWolfsonKSTP (2/2) DeLaSalle HS alum Alan Anderson has the 76ers, Cavs, Lakers, and Clippers, among teams interested.

I like both these guys. Good role players.
