Extend Kuzma, Caruso and THT

[tamaraw08]

per BBREF, Thomas Bryant was technically drafted by Utah and yet Lakers to him and he played 15 games his first year here. He has has a 17 Mil 2 year contract with the Wizards last year had a FREAKING 21.1 PER, 13.7 pts/7rebs,

Thomas Bryant surprised a lot of people. Very few, if any, thought he was a better prospect than Mo Wagner. It's undeniable that we have an impressive track record in drafting players.

Yup. I can’t seem to find that article but in that article it says that the Lakers are the 3rd best team in the last 10 years in terms of drafting players.

No. 1 was Toronto & No. 2 was Denver.


Surprisingly, the Spurs, Warriors and Celtics have been striking out this last decade and are among the worst drafters of late.

Celtics striking out, really? From Tatum, Brown, Smart and even Terry Rozier? Or you talking about late draft picks?
btw, Miami has got to be the BEST hands down in developing/nurturing late round picks and esp un-drafted players. Duncan Robinson, Nunn I heard were un-drafted. Even before, guys like Josh Richardson (40th), Tyler Johnson, Whiteside, McGruder, etc etc.

Based on the article yes. Tatum and Brown being the exception for the Celtics .

Unfortunately I can’t remember the title

In the past 10 years they have drafted(and kept) Avery Bradley, Fab Melo, Jared Sullinger, Lucas Nogueira, James Young, Marcus Smart, RJ Hunter, Terry Rozier, Ante Zizic, Guerschon Yabusele, Jaylen Brown, Jayson Tatum, Robert Williams, Romeo Langford, Payton Pritchard and Aaron Nesmith in the 1st round.

Smart, Tatum and Brown were top 10 picks, the rest were not. Even Smart you can argue he didn't live up to the expectations of a #6 pick.

Only Bradley and Rozier had a decent career out of the rest, which is pretty **** bad considering the sheer volume of names on that list.

Luke Harangody, E'Twaun Moore, Kris Joseph, Marcus Thornton, Jordan Mickey, Abdel Nader, Ben Bentil, Demetrius Jackson, Jabari Bird, Kadeem Allen, Semi Ojeleye, Tremont Waters, Yam Madar were drafted in the 2nd round.
Again.... dog fart.


So yeah, it's pretty terrible if you ask me.

And then the way they overrate their guys and try to make big moves on stars but then haggle and leak, and then lose the star before success anyway... Danny Ainge is just a complete mess.

Whereas Lakers folks seems clear about THT's HOF status and that Kuzma is about to be renounced outright for being so terrible.
