I'm hoping we lose every game from here on out. What incentive do the Lakers have by winning the game ? And screw ourselves out of much needed ping pong balls ?

I mean it's possible that the Lakers can screw up and win the game but that does them no good.



:lol:

Can't help but laugh at this. This has been the mindset of the pro-tank crowd from basically the start of the season and got a bunch of **** for it by you and all the other "Lakers shouldn't tank, legacy is more important then the lottery" crowd.


Now look at you all! That high horse is sitting a whole lot shorter nowadays...

My old sig went ape **** on me. I need a new one. Something pro lottery. We should make one for Exum, Wiggins, Embiid, and maybe Parker once the regular season standings are determined and have the Lakers board rock them.


I'll see what I can do. ;)

I stopped making sigs for the past few months, but I am interested in getting back to it and reviving the Lakers Sigs Thread. I think pro-lottery sigs is a fantastic idea.

:clap: Sounds awesome

Has nothing to do with high horse. I was on the same page as DEEP but at this point it would be stupidity to not put yourself in a better position when your team isn't going anywhere

It was clear the Lakers weren't going anywhere and were going to miss the playoffs way back in January.

@gotokyo....

Get off your self gloating, it wasn't obvious that the Lakers weren't going to the playoffs back in January because at the time they were only like 9 games out from the last seed. Plus there was the outside chance Kobe was coming back.

It only became obvious a few weeks after the All Star break. When Kobe didn't come back in that first week of February like they claimed he would it was over.

Then and only then was that the time I conceded that the addition of a young stud was for the better for the Lakers.

THIS exactly. There was a tank movement, but most of us didn't jump on until quite late, when Kobe's knee injury became clear it was season ending.
