I'm hoping the Lakers trade their first round pick plus a player for another teams first round pick. With the Lakers luck, that team would do terrible and the Lakers would end up with like the 5th pick in the draft. :laugh:

That was sort of my hope too. Right now, it's not looking good, but if the Lakers can get some picks in this draft,the long term benefit can be great. This draft is suppose to be STACKED! And with an aging Kobe and Gasol, it would be nice to get some early 20 year old talent to grab the torch once Kobe is done.

ARE U SERIOUS? WE NEED YOUTH AND ATHLETICISM ON THE WING, THESE WERE THE BEST PLAYERS AVAILABLE (NICK YOUNG, WESLEY JOHNSON, JORDAN FARMAR, CHRIS KAMAN). MITCH IS DOING A GREAT JOB... WESLEY JOHNSON AVERAGED 14 POINTS IN 29 MINUTES AS A STARTER FOR PHOENIX LAST SEASON. HE CAN BE AN ARIZA TYPE PLAYER FOR US.. CALM YASELF BEFORE U END UP PUTTIN YA FOOT IN YA MOUTH.

But he ain't starting over Kobe, and overall throughout the season he only averaged 8ppg. And his season high last year was 15 points. We need youth, but youth that has some up side. Wes Johnson is 26, he's as good as he's going to get and that ain't that good. Same with Nick Young and Jordan Farmar. (though I'll accept Farmar because he was on two championship teams with the Lakers and I think he'd be a great replacement for Nash if worst comes to worst. Kaman is alright, but he's replacing Howard and that's a downgrade, no matter what you'd argue. If the Lakers barely made 7th seed last year, this roster will only get 8th seed at best.

LOL MISINFORMATION DOGG STRIKES AGAIN...
COME ON, DUDE, U MAKE IT TOO EASY...HIS SEASON HIGH WAS NOT 15 POINTS LAST YEAR, IT WAS 22 AND HE DIDN'T GET ANY PLAYING TIME UNTIL MARCH. BEFORE THAT, HE WAS OUT OF THE ROTATION, CUZ SUNS WERE GOIN WITH JARED DUDLEY, MICHAEL BEASLY AND MARKEIF MORRIS. IN THE END, WELEY'S TALENT WON OUT AND HE GOT THE STARTING JOB + AVERAGED 13 POINTS IN MARCH AND APRIL RESPECTIVELY.

JUST WHAT WE NEED OFF THE BENCH.
AND I AINT EVEN GUNNA GET STARTED ABOUT NICK YOUNG. THIS IS A DUDE ENTERING HIS PRIME WHO AVERAGED 17.4 PPG WITH WASHINGTON..AN ATHLETIC WING TO RUN WITH THE YOUN DUDES IN THE WEST WHO CAN CREATE FOR HIMSELF AND TAKE PRESSURE OFF KOBE, EXACTLY WHAT WE NEEDED. AND UR GUNNA ACT LIKE IT AINT A GOOD SIGNING? SLAP YASELF.
Meho:
I'm with NIKCC on this one, Lakers are lowkey building a dangerous squad. But as always, in the end, names on the paper don't mean shit. We'll see what's the chemistry like.
LooN3y:
Vets Min? whos goign to complain about that.
and with dwights attitude (give me the ball in the post, even though i suck big black cock in the post and cant do anything consistently except get stripped, brick point blank hook shots, and miss free throws)
it wasnt like chemistry was going to get better, and its ridiculous nash said in an recent interview the main thing was "dwight didnt want to run the pick and roll"
who the fuck does he think he is? the 2nd coming of kareem, hakeem, ewing? dude is complete utter trash talent and skill wise, if it wasnt for his athleticism he would be nothing.
dude is an over glorified kwame brown. dude was dead last in post ups the last season, hes been getting baby assists and pick and roll plays all the time in orlando, why the hell would he want to think hes the 2nd coming of the Captain?
dude is a joke, i guess he wanted to make his "name" or prove something to kobe or shaq or the city of LA.
funny thing is harden is a pick and roll player, so what is he going to do when he gets there? make harden into a spot up shooter? lmao this is going to be funny to see.
