Would you rather the Lakers get Simmons or Philly get the 4th pick who becomes a star?

Simmons to Lakers as superstar or 4th pick to Sixers as star?

I can handle the Lakers getting Simmons but losing that pick who became a star would haunt me

As long as the Lakers get nothing, I don't care what we lost, because Knight is fairly solid, and the Lakers didn't get that pick (though they may get one in the next two drafts, which are better).

What would you hope for more?

Lets say Simmons becomes and absoulte superstar, but the 4th pick ends up being a star player, capable of being a top 2 guy on a contender? What would pain you more?

I would prefer star player coming to east team than to west team, especially to Lakers. Although I think that what Philly is doing is ridiculous and I hope they will never get any star I still prefer the east to get stronger than west getting even stronger.

And most of all I hope that Knight will play so good that we can finally stop talking about that pick.

I couldnt care less but LA wont lose this pick. Plain simple.
We just need to hope they take the worst 'surefire star' available.

Well even if they have the worst record, even though they have a 1 in 4 chance of the top pick, they still have at least a 40% chance dropping to 4. I might rather that happen if this is a bad draft. That way they don't get Simmons or anyone, and if Philly only gets the 4th pick, that's not THAT big of deal to me. He could be a star but this is a bad draft except the top.

I'd rather lose the star.

I don't want the Lakers getting Simmons.

It sure looks like they wiffed on Randle and Russell. LOL.
