So will the Lakers take Lonzo Ball? Will they acquire Paul George? Will they keep their late-first round picks? Will there be any surprises? You can talk about the draft here.
UPDATED: Yes, the Lakers take Ball. Let’s hope the media stops talking to Lavar Ball. Yeah, right.
Zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz
Never will like the Lakers again. They need defense, not the drama with Ball. What a joke……
I would probably be a bad GM or owner, because I would run fast and far from Lonzo Ball and his dad. I understand the kid is a big time talent, but I can’t believe he is such a phonemal talent that he is worth the sideshow that comes with him. How about banning Lavar from the locker room and the court? How about telling Lonzo–we drafted you and you are an adult. And your dad doesn’t need to be at your workplace. Won’t happen, so I go back to my first thought–run fast and far.
Agree. I am surprised at this pick. . Dont think he is worthy of a #2 and dont like the circus.
i think fultz was their first choice but when that didnt work out they had to choose between ball and fox. ball makes sense from a team prospective. remember before he came ot ucla they were not a tournament team and had a losing record. fox is a scoring pg and will fit in a team that needs a player like him. ball can easily make an entire team better offensively. but as the og poster said earlier, his d is suspect. but he has potential with that long wingspan. he had a lot of key blocks and steals at ucla although not consistent against teams he lost to.
Westbrook’s coming soon as well. it’s winning time again! And you Dummies will have to sit it out.
#UCLAOwnsLA
Westbrook AIN’T coming.
AIN’T.
Russell Westbrook AIN’T coming to the Lakers.
Yeah I said he AIN’T.
It AIN’T happening.
And I’m glad.
Sounds like another Sammy, shock the world, prognostication – snore
lakers crazy to draft ball, hes probaly best player ever, but he was a one and done as they say at ucla, he may do it again and leave lakers after one year like he did ucla
The best players don’t lose in the Sweet 16 of the NCAA Tournament with another 1st Rounder at Power Forward, a solid 4-Star Center, a 5-Star Senior Small Forward, the three point shooting coaches son, and the 6th Man of the Year in the conference in the lineup with him. Oh, plus the Bruins led the NCAA in scoring.
Best player ever? Nah!
The greats win. Even as freshman. Magic Johnson. Even Carmelo Anthony. Lonzo…..needs to keep his dad out of his professional career starting now or he’ll be a sideshow or worse.
I’m a Laker fan, he’s good. But he better drop the sh*t that his dad’s been feeding him at the door.
sas that is Charlie Bucket’s sock puppet you are trying to reason with.
It is. He says it’s not him.
I missed it. Did his dad walk on stage and put on the Lakers hat? Did his dad give the interview instead of Lonzo?
Like the blogger says, it is amazing that sometimes the media can not leave a topic alone. Can you believe there is a blogger out there that is still talking about Kiffin, Sark and the baby QB?
SW will probably be talking about Corral for the next half-decade too. It’s part of his schtick. Annoy, annoy, annoy.
Opps. Was I too obvious about who I was talking about?
I thought you were talking about David Sills.
if it gets too far with lavar ball shooting his mouth this season i wouldn’t be surprised if he ends up being banned from the staples center. he better stay in his lane like kristine leahy
Leahy actually bucks up pretty good against Cowherd. She doesn’t buy a lot of his routine at which point he just becomes very dismissive. I think she holds her own actually, which is why she landed the gig in the first place. She publicly put Daddy Ball down big-time.
yes aside from her good looks lol. but yeah she used to cover the boston celtics as well to add to her resume
Funny. She looks a lot more California than Boston. At first I thought she was just a lightweight, but not true. She only gets to talk about 2% of the time but she still knows how to get to Cowherd. He tries not to show it.
definitely. she keeps cowherd on check especially when he expresses his love for lebron james lol
She also has to fight off his disdain for Russell Westbrook. They make a good pair.
He is an embarrassing suck up.
⚫️ Don’t care.
Power Forward J’Raan Brooks put SC in his final 4 today.
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️‼️
He will pick up his 5th ⭐️ this school year!
Washington gets cut. No staying home for him. And USC and Stanford are the only two schools he’s scheduled an official visit for. I think he’ll be moving up also. He’s been getting a lot of talk lately.
Awesome news!✌️
There’s always a lot of talk from you, Sambo.
Of that we can depend.
I’m surprised mommy let’s you talk. After the Sweet 16 you were M.I.A.
Snore. Lots of talk doth not a Basketball player make. Obviously, Brooks hasn’t checked the bozo u 2017-18 cupcake non-conf. schedule.
In 3,2,1…..
USC 36
UCLA 14
3-2 are you referring to the UCLA vs SoCal win / loss record in the last 5 years?
You obviously never played sports. Or weren’t any good. Because if you did or were you would know that UCLA’s in trouble and Helton is gonna help usher in the new football coach at Ucla for running Mora off.
Hang on to that!
4. 5, 6……. UCLA 102 – bozos 70.
Hey Sammy, how many games did the bozo BB team lose LY by 20 or more points:
3….4….or 5.
Sammmmy has Billy Preston signed his bozo u LOI?
That will be the only final four SoCal basketball will ever see.
Not true. Participated as recently as 1954.
You guys raise the “we got to the sweet sixteen and lost again” banner yet?
If we get him, he’ll put USC in the final 4 before he’s done.
He’s a good power forward. Enfield has kids aware of USC Basketball.
Yep. That’s my point, Sam. I should have said “He’ll HELP put USC in the final 4!
Interesting………
Rumor is Georgia turned Matt Corral down. If it’s true then that means they are all in on Justin Fields and USC moving on from Corral probably didn’t help him out either. Florida may be his next option or Nebraska.
Were any Socal players drafted today?
Kentucky did. But you probably don’t want to hear that huh?
Kentucky (NBA) is neck and neck with bozo u (NFL) for sending most the flops to professional teams.
#freeoj.
Your song sure has changed since hoops season. Now you’re okay with merely being more successful than Southern Cal?
He ran like a big mouth usually does.
The real question is how did the bruins manage to be so average?
In football, it’s understandable, with that big gorilla USC always sucking all the air out of your baby blue program. But in hoops, you should be killing it, yet you’re still just an old also-ran program. Hah. It was so fun watching UK drill you. We all saw it coming.
Uh ohhhhhh!!!!!
#1 Offensive Tackle in the nation Jackson Carman who visited USC the last four (4) days posted on twitter…….”I just want to thank California and the Trojan family for the best weekend of my life. I’m definitely gonna be back” #FIGHTON
Did you guys give him a car and a song girl like the old Marv Goux & Pete Carrol days?
Wooden’s pyramid is full of receipts from Sam and the payoffs.
Gilbert’s trust fund ran out of funding. That is why they have not done anything in the lat 22 years
That sounds about right. They never hear it because we never bring it up, but people remember!
Pete always said he learned a lot from Johnny. Honest to a fault.
Yeah, probably, why?
What all the NBA teams will need to add to their organization are “babysitters” for all these wealthy freshmen who were drafted as it is only going to get worse as time goes where highschool phenoms will quit their senior years and present themselves as ready for the pros. And don’t think attorneys are not willing & ready to back them all up! The NBA game is a mess of just running up & down the court shooting 3’s and dunking.
