This coverage is brutal. Can they talk about the draft?

I mean if they want a show talking about everything but, just put another show on.

So Lakers got to jump up 20 spots with nothing but cash. Everybody loves doing them favors. Including my trash ass organization
Fantasy Hoops/Football/Baseball fans..

For info on a forum that actually talks Fantasy sports and not spammed with soliciting leagues, PM me. The more the merrier !

Raynaud was right there and we need a lob threat center, idc if lakers scouting department is solid, we lost against wolves cause Hayes is a bum

Now they have Brooks, Booker, Beal, Fleming and Mark Williams/Malauch as their starters. Maybe Fleming doesn't start...? If not who is the PF?
Might be Dunn, but I'd rather he play SF. I'm good if they can move Brooks elsewhere.

They could use a PG, but their depth is improved.
Not too many PG's available, so we'll see what comes of this upcoming pick. It's either that or we go undrafted/free agent route again. While I do like the work that Gillespie is put in, he's got a lot of improvement to make it he's going to start.

I agree that Reynaud should have been the pick. Perhaps the Lakers are betting on being able to sign Clint Capela in free agency. Even so, they need additional bigs. Thiero being the pick here is strange.

Indiana selecting Kam Jones was also weird, especially with Reynaud still on the board. Indiana needs better bench bigs than Tony Bradley and Thomas Bryant.

He's not as good as he was in prior seasons. He's still better than guys like Jaxson Hayes, Alex Len, and Maxi Kleber.
