Id rather us use our fucking draft picks to actually get a player that will play in the NBA for more than his rookie contract. Besides Curry.... NOT 1 can really be named in the last 6-8 years that we struck gold and hung onto.....
Thats why we are 1 dimensional. Thats why with out david lee we would be a sub .500 team. It makes me furious to watch ellis and curry get minimal help night in and night out.
we are lucky to be at 7-5 right now.
Monta was a platinum find breh, without him we might be the t-wolves.
and Biedrins was a great pick too. outside of those guys its been wack tho. Marco gettin it done this year in new orleans tho but i knew he'd take time to adjust and get some strength - all foreign players do and most younger kids too.
but it aint all about drafting. this years pick was kinda weak but hes hurt so we dont even know yet, but if u look around it aint like other teams are finding "gold" constantly. last years draft was weak outside the top 2.
the only good player the Lakers drafted in the last 10 years was Marc Gasol.
but u got to remember we had 1 of the worst ownerships in all of sports, things could have been a lot better without nelson fuckin it off tho. traded Jackson, let Crawford go for nothin, traded Harrington for Crawford. If we had Jackson and Jamal Crawford still we'd be a serious threat.
its our bench thats the prob right now, every1 is wack except for Reggie Williams. i do like Jeff Adrien but hes kinda strugglin.
we need to make a move or two and send Radman, Carney, B Wright, and Gadzuric if needed.
we need some1 that score off the bench bad right now, all we have is reggie williams. we need some depth at big man but we are injured there amundson and udoh - and b wright was out last game.
they should look into the d-league and give some1 a 10-day chance.
which brings me to our injuries overall the last few years, we need a new medical staff. i dunno why ours is so shitty but our players miss games that other teams dont.
