We looked like The Lakers of old and The Warriors looked like The Clippers of old. The roles switched up yesterday. We looked like the team favored to win it all while they looked like we have been playing the past couple of years!! Sign of things to come? Like D-Lo said "We haven't seen nothing yet" #17 Coming up!! Too Easy!!

Yeah I was lucky that my day was free because I worked all night Saturday and had nothing planned on Sunday so I was able to watch that beauty. I couldn't believe what I was watching. That made me feel awesome the rest of the day and night! Man that was Great stuff! I thought it was 2010 again.

Lakers singing this last night:
Now I, I go for mine, I got to shine
Now throw your hands up in the sky
Now I, I go for mine, I got to shine
Now throw your hands up in the sky

Wouldn't noticeable progress from our young players open the eyes of some free agents? Would you rather have a shot at Hassan Whiteside and perhaps a DeMar Derozan, or would you rather get a young crapshoot in the draft (assuming we don't get the overall #1 pick)?

Pitch my game, offer him the highest paid contract of all-time and tell him he is the next coming in LA! We could have Russell, Clarkson, Durant, Randle and Draft Skal from Kentucky if we have a Top 3 for our young Center. He and Randle both would be a tandem because they both went to KY. Skal just took it too LSU with 18 and 9, dude is athletic.

My hypothetical excludes Ben Simmons. In other words, it assumes that we get the #2 or #3 pick. That would probably mean Brandon Ingram or Dragan Bender from Croatia (a shorter, raw Porzingis clone). Trading that pick for a proven free agent to be star is also certainly a possibility. However, if we win games and wind up "sacrificing" the #2 or #3 pick (unless we get a lucky bounce of the ping pong balls like last year), wouldn't that give more credibility to the future of the team/franchise such that young players like Whiteside or DeRozan MIGHT want the shot at being the next great Lakers? I don't know the answer either. I do know that we need long term patience absent a Heatles situation which I don't see. And forget about Durant.

Yeah I would love to have Derozan and Whiteside if we can sign them to go with Russell, Randle, Clarky, and Nance and just screw the tank theory, I see what you are saying now. I know we aren't getting Kevin but I thought I would Post it for fun. That Bender guy is intriguing if we do get a Top 3.
