Lakers: We're BAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAACCCCKKKKK!!!!!

[RsxPiimp]

lol wut... big men taken in the top 5 in recent years:

2014 - Joel Embiid
2013 - Cody Zeller, Alex Len
2012 - Anthony Davis, Thomas Robinson
2011 - Enes Cancer, Tristan Thompson, Jonas Valenciunas

only davis has shown top 5 value... jonas and tristan are nice players, but if you're expecting a franchise changing guy, yeah, you can go wrong

its a crap shoot but you always go big in most cir stances. in the case of 2015 draft, it's safer to go after towns or okafor IMO. mudiay, winslow or russell aren't really cornserstone types either.

perimeter/wings or guards in recent drafts hasn't done well either

otto porter- 3rd pick
beasley- 2nd pick
oj mayo 3rd pick
morrison 3rd pick
evan turner- 2nd pick
derrick williams-2nd pick
marvin williams- 2nd pick

Happy for you Lakers fans. League isn't the same when yall suck tbh. Make the right pick, shouldn't be hard.

[Dex]

Congratulations. I know the feeling of getting a Top pick after a miserable season. I personally think Russell has the highest ceiling and will be an automatic All-Star (high scoring guard, flashy plays etc) but you can't go wrong picking a big man.

Unless you pick Elton Brand. Or Kwame Brown. Or Darko Milicic. Or Greg Oden. Or Anthony Bennett. Or...

[The Gemini Method]

Whiny Spurs fans realizing their improbable run is about to end and the rise of the Lakers is about to commence. Eat a --we back!!!!

Elton Brand is not a bust

[Kool Bob Love]

Lakers really are Knicks-west.

[baseline bum]

Some great #2 picks in recent memory:

[Dex]

Elton Brand is not a bust

He had a decent career, but certainly didn't live up to the caliber expected from a #1 pick. Middle-tier player at his best. Big stats on bad teams.
