Quote from: LakersFan_33 on May 21, 2017, 01:04:43 PMDon't post here that often, but I guess I'll give my 2c on the Lonzo thing. I could give two ****s about his dad, I only care about the basketball player, but I honestly don't think he's the best player at 2, which is Jackson. There is this tidal wave of Lonzo hype going on partly from his dad and partly from the media that the Lakers must take him, and fans will put that pressure on the FO to take him. I hope Magic/Pelinka are smart enough to pick the best player there, which wouldn't be Ball.One thing I know from the recent Lakers front office , it's that they will take the player they believe themselves is the best, regardless of position or what the media or so-called draft experts think. They passed on Okafor to take Russell even though they had Clarkson and needed a center, and Okafor was the consensus #2. If they believe Jackson or Tatum is better than Ball, they will easily pass on Ball.

He's an athletic small forward who can't shoot... Aside from the fact that those players are available every single year he has MAJOR red flags.http://deadspin.com/report-josh-jackson-issued-one-game-suspension-for-tra-1793091040

Lavar coaches an AAU team called Big Ballers. Lost to a Compton team 109-57 and he was apparently "silenced" lol https://www.usatoday.com/story/sports/basketball/2017/05/27/lavar-ball-aau-big-ballers-lose-compton-magic/102253622/So we find out he can't coach
