Since we love to play in the world of speculation, here's one to vote on.
Assume that all trades go through as they are currently positioned (We think.). We end up with the protected Lakers pick, which could become the Sac '19 pick.
If you had a choice right now, which one would you pick? If you pick the Lakers, you know that you are getting a 2-5 pick, no questions asked. It's next year and there are tons of big men available. Imagine ending up with #1 and #2?
If you take Sacramento, though, you have a shot at #1. Sacramento is one of the worst run organizations in the NBA, so the chances that they'll still be bad two years from now is pretty high. And we have no Brooklyn pick that year.
