NBA Draft and the Lakers

So with the trade of their PG does this for sure mean they are taking the crazy fathers kid?
Then talk of Paul George signing with the Lakers and they were talking about Lebron also. In two years do we have the return of the Lakers as a contender in the west?
The Celtics will take the east next year, my prediction.
Lonzo seems like a nice kid with prolific passing skills capable of elevating the team. I'm going on record here as liking this kid Lonzo, hope he does well for you Laker fans.

It would be hilarious if the Lakers took the PG from Kentucky. Not a bad move either.

I like Lonzo but he's overrated. Fox, the kid from Kentucky is a better player, as is Jackson the small forward from Kansas.
Lakers will take the local kid.

we are in the thick of things
we are in the thick of things.
mosgov and deng deals were stupid. glad we got rid of 1.
russell was still pretty young, but being a #2....should have done more by now. ps. shitty work ethic and kinda a bitch...
brook lopez 1 yr deal, is a very good center.
can't stand lavar. lonzo seems ok, i kinda like the jackson kid though...
i think clarkson can play the 1 and or 2 as our starter....
big year, getting back on track.
i think p. george is ok, just overrated and is a total injury risk. i would not over pay nor over trade for him.
his games per/yr: 61,66,79,80,6,81,75....
and y'all crazy. i'll welcome lebron w/ open arms. the ONLY thing he doesn't have is the killer instinct....which is actually a big deal...
should be interesting to say the least.

the greater southern
the greater southern california area probably produces more professional athletes than anywhere in the world.
its nice when they play back for home teams.
ps. wtf!? are the bulls thinking?? lakers should have been trying for butler instead of paul....twolves got a steal and are a really surging team.

My team was stolen by a robber baron from Oklahoma city. I can only live vicariously through you guys.
Good move on dumping De angelo and picking up lonzo. Once the season starts his dad will be a non factor. The Lakers on the upswing. Minnesota is looking nice with the towns, wiggins, butler combo....damn.

It sounds like the Warriors
It sounds like the Warriors continue to be smart, buying a second round pick and getting a big guy out of Oregon who is supposedly a beast of a defender & rebounder. Apparently his flaw is he's not a great offensive player.
Somehow I think the Warriors will be OK with that.

Read Matt Taibbi's piece on the draft in RS.
I could give a rat's ass, and I found it funny as hell.
I'm sure he needed a break from the politico beat.

Minnesota had a great night..
Minnesota had a great night...Celtics took the beast of a frwd from SMU with last pick...and yet another guard from Arizona before that...kid from SMU led them to sweet 16 (i think)..cant remember his name..and if the Celts add Heyward , theyre all set.

I don't really know shit
I don't really know shit about basketball, but my brother just spent the last 3 months cooking for Derrick White, Harry Giles and Malik Monk, three meals a day while they were in the combine.
I think that's pretty cool.

He responded to an ad. Their sports management company rented a house for 7 of the potentials for the entire combine and needed a chef. He said that breakfasts consisted of at least 4 dozen eggs and 5 lbs of bacon.
What would be really cool is if one of them hires him as their personal chef!

Good Luck with Lonzo, i wish him well. Have to hand it to Lavar, if not for his newsworthy antics the last few months i never would have given any attention to the draft. This is hard to admit but i'm starting to like the Dad. Pure entertainment.
Wizards as usual traded their picks. Watched a few minutes of a celtics playoff game, Isaiah Thomas is a solid ballplayer. Watch out for the Celtics.

Kupchak picking up Mozgov a
Kupchak picking up Mozgov a year ago was arguably the worst FA signing in recent memory. It did in Kupchak and Fredo Buss and eventually cost the Lakers D'angelo Russell (which is ok, I don't think his ceiling is that high and Lonzo is a different type of PG). I'm also glad they haven't over paid for PG13. Lakers won't challenge for a ring next year so if it's meant to have George, he will come in '18. PG doesn't want the Lakers giving up talent either.
Ball will make a good Laker. He can pass and he may even be able to lead at some point. I also like the other three picks. The Utah kid is a gamer. Nova kid is proven. Indiana kid is probably D-league for a while. Fact they ended up with four picks is a huge haul anyway (((ping pong gods))).
Lance, that guy out of Oregon is incredible. That was such a score. He is a beast and will produce on the boards and on defense.
Rich getting richer. Just a great pick.
