The problem is that if it is the #1 pick, it doesn't go to us.  We only get the Lakers pick if it lands 2-5.

And Ayton will be taken #1 overall is what it looks like.  So the question is who would you want out of Doncic, Bagley, Bamba, etc., etc. if the Lakers pick conveys.

Another question to ponder is would you rather have a top 2-5 pick in this years draft, or would you rather have a top 5 pick in the next draft, when it will be the King's pick conveying for sure with zero protections, unless... it is the #1 overall pick in which case we get the Sixers pick that year instead, booo!!
It can only be 2 or 3, btw.  Lakers either get a top 3 slot in the lottery, or draft 10th or worse.

Cool thanks for the clarification.  Alright, I'm rooting for the Lakers to "luckily" move up to the #2 or #3 draft position then.  I'm sure that it will hurt like HELL for Lakers fans if the Celtics land a superstar using the Lakers own draft pick!!!

He's like a super Evan Turner with a great shot! He would fit in so well with all our other 6'7"/6'8" players than can shoot and create their own shots.

I can't pick between ayton doncic and Bagley

I've been leaning toward Bagley recently because he's a 2 way big, but they're all good

Someone has to challenge the warriors so why not have Cavs or C's win? Hell, have them win 2 and 3.

97 times out of 100 the right ping-pong ball will not emerge at the right time tomorrow. I go strongly with the odds.  Cs fans will turn their lonely eyes to Sacramento, 2019.

The % of us jumping to 2 or 3 is predetermined, not sure what's the point of trying to guess here ;D

Fun.  ;D
I believe Gandhi is the only person who knew about real democracy — not democracy as the right to go and buy what you want, but democracy as the responsibility to be accountable to everyone around you. Democracy begins with freedom from hunger, freedom from unemployment, freedom from fear, and freedom from hatred.
