Jaylen Brown will shoot better than this guy when all is said and done. I don't like Ingram's form. Shoots it off the side of his head. Odd. 68% free throw shooter big red flag.

Let's just say that, as a Celtics fan, I am hoping you guys take Ingram. Russell and Ingram back-to-back will be two mistakes.

Since you're a Celtics fan I wont get you for trollin' cause there has to be some sort of trash talking between these two fanbases. :lol:

You guys will end up with Murray though. He's the 3rd best player in the draft.

Thanks, I just enjoy the back-and-forth. I think Ainge takes Chriss though. I really do. Murray's low release point troubles me, and lack of quickness. Chriss has no weakness other than being raw.

This is really weird and amusing.

Jaylen Brown was a 65% free throw shooter at Cal. A 29% 3 point shooter and a 48% shooter from 2's.

I'll let you look at Ingram's totals, but I can tell you right now 2/3 are better - including the one you reference as a "red flag."

Celtics fans, lol. Special type of individuals, I swear.

I really liked Jaylen Brown's interview. He almost convinced me I'd pick him at #2. But i'm an idiot, hopefully Mitch isn't lol.
LAKER FAN FOR LIFE

Make fun all you want, and history will judge.

I just think it's a crap shoot regarding who turns out the better shooter (Brown and Ingram). I think Ingram is over-rated, and Brown is under-rated. Brown was misused at Cal and his shooting numbers were better in HS.

But all this being said, Chriss is the guy I want. If Chriss were off the board, Ingram and Brown would be a toss up for me, and I lean Brown because of his intangibles (defense, physical presence, athleticism).

I am not super-high on any of the guards. I rank them Murray - Dunn - Hield.

Now reports are saying that Lakers are NOT locked on to a certain player. This is kinda weird considering how close we are to the draft.

Oh god please don't tell me we draft Bender, he may end up being good but just let us do the common sense thing and draft whoever isn't picked out of Ingram and Simmons.

Im pretty sure the Lakers Organization never came out and said who they were taking to begin with. Everything until now has been speculation by the media. Lakers dont have a reason to announce who they're taking.
