D'Lo, and Im happy about that.

I honestly dont want PG13 coming to the Lakers, but I do want to see the Lakers get better through the draft. They picked fairly well overall and filled their holes nicely. The addition of Lonzo or JJ will only take them to the next step.
(the only drawback was not drafting Porzingis but its ok)

This is Ingram's team in 4 years, and he has potential to be a top 10 NBA player down the line. But right now, I want it D'Lo to take that next step in leadership and production. And I want to see Julius Randle form into a vocalist and expand his game from the wings and baseline.

Zubac, needs to watch film of Marc Gasol. He has every single tool to be an all-star center. I really think so.

And finally, I want them to communicate on defense.

Lonzo/vet
Russell/Clarkson
Ingram/Deng
Randle/Nance
Zubac/Mozgov

Lets these guys grow together, but let D'Lo be the guy to be the offensive focal point. He has it in him.

i was just watching some Nash highlights and realized, what if Randle can be to Ball how Stoudemire was to Nash? without the highflying dunks of course.

but anyway, i voted Ingram.

Somebody tell me how that is going to happen. What will make Randle better because of Ball? I see a lot of people saying this but how is that going to happen? Explain.

Maybe because of Ball's ability to pass? I'm guessing people here somewhat anticipates Ball makes it easier for Randle to finish more buckets? Having said that I think Ball could make it easier for DLo, Ingram. etc. to make buckets too. Or maybe like like what Laker Kid said, if Ball and Randle somewhat becomes Nash and Amare?
