#Lakers can screws things up by drafting Josh Jackson. That's why word out of Boston is #Celtics want to wait until draft night.

I hope this is what we do. Draft Markelle Fultz at #1 and wait. It's senseless to do the trade now when there's a risk on missing out on both Fultz and Josh Jackson. In any scenarios after this, our worst case is we end up with Fultz.

This has to be the deal.

Regardless, we need certainties that we don't miss out on who we want. Either it's Fultz or Jackson, Fultz HAS to be picked first, and we have to hold on to him until Jackson gets picked by Philly. If Jackson is indeed who we want, the deal is on. If not, we keep Fultz.

Of course, all this is going to be thrown away if the #3 will be moved for Jimmy Butler. I trust that Ainge has this deal locked in first before he does the move. But again, that's way too uncertain.

Our best, safest thing to do really is to pick Markelle Fultz at #1. Any trade he wants to do can happen by then, but we have to pick Fultz.

I gotta say, watching more footage of Josh Jackson, he's quite impressive. I can see him being better than Fultz long term with the right coach. He looks like a better version of Jaylen Brown. Having Jaylen, Jackson, and Smart would reek havoc on all NBA teams on both ends of the floor. So much athleticism and intensity.

If they are set on Jackson, what do they do if they take Fultz at #1 and then LA takes Jackson? I suppose Ainge could work out a trade with LA then if they really love Fultz.

Maybe the Lakers want in , on some of this action

they tell the 76ers , if you really want Fultz.... send us something in return too

Danny won't do that...

If he finds out the Lakers are taking Jackson and he really wants Jackson in the end...He will draft him 1st

the team that gets screwed either way is the 76ers

scenerio 1

Celtics  - Fultz
Lakers - Jackson
76ers  - screwed

scenerio 2

Celtics - Jackson
Lakers - Fultz
76ers - screwed

If i were the Lakers I would mess with the 76ers head and tell them  I want something in return...and we will bypass on Jackson

Negotiate with the Lakers.

Didn't Magic "loved" Markelle Fultz?

A few days ago, I was complaining that this was the most boring lead-up period to the draft in ages. Now, what I wouldn't give for boring...

Looking more at Josh Jackson footage, he reminds me of Scottie Pippen.

Absolutely.

Why do we have to have an obligation to help them?

The deal is simple...

We take the (supposed) #3, 2018 LAL and 2021 Philly first, protections and everything. But we set a contingent, and it will be with Josh Jackson be available at #3 AFTER we pick Markelle Fultz.

If he is, and the Sixers wan't Fultz, deal is on. If not, no deal. If Jackson is who they want and he is at #3, no deal. We still keep Fultz.

Why do we have to take all of the risk of losing out on both guys?

things will become clearer once we know what happens with Ball

Ball recently had a 2nd workout with the Lakers... he and his camp want to know where they stand

IF we hear Ball ready to workout for another team all of a sudden

Well then this deal with the 76ers could be jeopardy
