Lakers

[Paulius]

Hope the Lakers pick Buddy Hield with the #2. Hear this out

Next, trade Clarkson.

Then sign Barnes and Ezeli

Dangelo Snitchell
Buddy Hield
Harrison Barnes
Julius Randle
Festus Ezeli

Lou Williams sixth man

Anyway, What do you guys think the Lakers will end up doing this summer?

 

[Jimmy Hoosiers]

If they sign Barnes, they are most likely maxing him. As a warriors fan, have fun with that lol

 

[Paulius]

Rather have the Lakers sign barnes than derozan tho

 

[buzzy]

I'd rather have DeRozan as my #1 option over Barnes

 

[Hurricane Season]

You're not winning with either as a #1 option.

 

[bosoxlover12]

Buddy Hield also isn't going #2

 

[elcheato]

Whoever gives Barnes a large contract is going to regret it within 10 games of his first season with them

 

[jonathanlambert33]

I would say that the Lakers aren't going to do any of that.

 

[Pugz]

barnes will not thrive in an offense around him.

trade clarkson to detroit. i want him as our sixth man, bad

Lakers should go after Nic Batumand take ingram or simmons

Hield wtf?
Wasnt he a senior? Ain't no way im drafting a college senior 2nd

Most nba ready player in the draft. Yall snoozin

 

[buzzy]

And why do the Lakers need the most NBA ready player? Make a run at the 9 seed?

 

[Mexi]

Always take the prospect over the ready made guy
And its not like simmons and ingram are projects anyways

 

[bosoxlover12]

Also I wouldn't say Buddy Hield is the most NBA ready, but rather that he won't develop into someone better than he was at college most likely. All the other prospects could end up so much better than they showed in college, but Hield's potential is to become what he already was, just at the pro level

do you have something against upside? you apparently think Hield and Sabonis should both be top 3 picks, they'll be good NBA players but they won't be superstars which is what some of these others have a much better chance of becoming. For instance I'm not at all saying he will do it but Ingram's upside is KD-lite, teams aren't drafting for who's the best right now they're drafting for whol will be the best over the next 5-10 years

I dont at all lol. I just want my guys to get drafted higher. Simmons is overrated, ingram is gonna be a monster i agree but i just think if bender is apparently top 5, sabonis in my eyes will be alot better than him, but again im biased cuz hes lithuanian but u feel me.

Its not like this draft is so good tho. Even simmons is questionable. I doubt buddy hield is gonna just be as good as he is now like whoever said it above. Dude will be a killer

Bet u anything that he will develop into even a better player than he is right now.

 

[Mexi]

College seniors don't really improve into stars
