I could make the playoffs as a coach  with Curry and Thompson and Green . 

Walton is not dumb , but he is not even close tho,CBS in the IQ department .

Just think guys... this is good.

They're not gonna be winning any championships with the roster as-is. All they're going to be doing is being a middle of the pack team. What that means for us is that we don't have to worry about them being worse than Brooklyn. Meaning, the pick (barring an unexpected level of suckitude from LA) is going to be one slot higher. As long as they aren't winning a title next year (which they won't be) this does nothing but help us.
TP for the optimism  ;D

The timing of Hinkie's resignation and the change of attitude in front offices were a bliss.
Combined with the alleged strength of next years draft and the rumors of the Nets blowing it up and trading Lopez+Young, we could be in for a fun year haha

It will worry me if the Lakers get a top pick this season. That could potentially be a winning foundation. I'm praying the Lakers get leapt by a couple of teams (preferably the Celtics) in the lottery and wind up wasting some extra years down at the bottom.

Without a top pick coming in this season, they've got another super depressing year ahead of them.

Hoping they draft someone like Russell again and not Towns or Okafor lol. #wastetheirpick2016

Now all they need to do is find their Curry, Green, Thompson, Iggy and Bogut.

exactly.
