Parker declaring really helps LA

[fpliii]

More depth at the top of the draft.

I know you let out an intense sigh of relief when you discovered this

[moe94]

People were all bent out of shape for nothing.

[red1]

yeah it helps all of the lottery teams

[ImKobe]

Glad to see him come to the league next season, really interested to see if he's another bust or a future 25+ ppg scorer.

Lakers screwed up.
They drastically reduced their chances of having one of the top 4 consensus picks in their team.

It's all up to luck now. 21% for top 3

Now all we need is one team to make a dumb decision and pass on one of the big 5. If a team jumps us 7th or worse though, we're still ****ed.

[Cold soul]

Indeed it does.

Well, it is 21% for top 3 if you're no.6.
Am I not supposed to believed set stats?

6th pick is not bad at all, I think we'll get Exum.

Man, I'm not really in to conspiracies and stuff. Although NOLA's case was a bit different though.

Let's just hope that Nick Young getting hot didn't set the Lakers franchise back 4-5 years.
Building a foundation, which they currently don't have at the moment, would be faster if they draft a star in this draft

Was this your reaction?



If both Exum and Parker are on the board, who do you take?

[alec613]

Ways for them to get any of the top 4:

1) They get lucky and get in to top 3 (which is the more likely scenario than the last two, but the % are not on their side)

2) Teams don't draft Exum because they don't need guards (Wiggins/Embiid/Parker won't slide down)

3) Silver compensates the Lakers for setting the franchise back after the failed CP3 trade and rigs the lottery for us

Parker because he is the safest pick. But Exum's two-way potential is certainly intriguing
