[Gek]

We're stopping at 8 rounds? . I wanted the opportunity to draft Ammo with my 10th pick.

[dockingsched]

i'll go with veteran lindsey hunter 01-02

[LAKERS_1981]

Vladimir Radmanovic 2007-08
Give me a 6-10 PF/SF with 8,4 pts 45% FG 41% 3pt 80%Ft

[TyCobb]

Let's get this over already, ****.

[Anklebreaker702]

I pick Pat Riley '74-75

[RamonSessions7]

'00-'01
Brian Shaw

[Gek]

1965-1966 Leroy Ellis
6' 10" 210 PF
12.2 PPG 9.2 RPG .9 SPG

[dockingsched]

TyCobb selects Bill Bridges, 72-73.

Kilroy is on the clock.

[Kilroy]

And for my final pick....

Jim Krebs (1961-1962)
6-8/230 true PF
10pts/8r



Enforcer, bruiser... Certainly 'defensive minded'...

He once got in a fist fight with Bill Russel... And in Russel's words:
"Jim Krebs was known in the league as man who was willing to go beyond the rules in getting his man."

But he was also known as a great locker room guy and motivator...

Survived a team plane crash... To be killed by a falling branch at home.

7.4 RPG

[Slava]

Earl Tatum 77-78 14pts/3.5Reb/2.8ast

[Gek]

Poor Slava - going undrafted while Chris Mihm made the cut.

[Kilroy]

Good info Kilroy.

Thanks man... I could do that from memory with all my picks and half of everyone else's now... This really was a great way to get to know Lakers past and present. I had no idea how much research I'd end up doing. Or how much time I'd spend.

Thanks for setting this up guys!

That was cool, something that can only be done with a handful of franchises.

Props to jfar and dcash for coming up with it and running the show.
