Mine would be with Cory Brewer somehow still on the board at pick 19 and Mitch takes Brandon Rush. Although it wouldn't be as bad as the previous Rush pick with Prince still on the board, it would still hurt...especially if Miami picked Brewer up at 20. |

Basically any of the players like Alando Tucker, Aaron Afflalo, Mbah A Moute, Marcus Williams, Acie Law, Mike Conley, Corey Brewer, etc. on the board and for some reason, we take an Aaron Grey, Nick Fazekas, Josh McRoberts, or some Euro-stiff no one has heard of.
My goal for our draft is someone who can play D, has consistently produced during college (even at just a solid level if not an extroadinary one, those would be lottery picks), and hopefully has played at least two years in college.
I don't want someone with "untapped potential," I want a known entity that the scouts say have peaked.....all that means is we know what we'll get from him and can rely on him, probably a smart player who is ready to contribute. I am one for the mindset that the more college experience one has and if they still have looked NBA capable that entire time, then it is likely they are pretty good, its just the hype died down because they were around too long...(see Josh Howard). _________________ LakersGround's Terms of Service

no way Brewer lasts to pick 19 or 20. After the tourny he is now a top 10 pick if not higher. |

If Corey Brewer is still on the board when the Lakers draft and they don't take him, then Mitch Kupchak must be fired immmediately.
Seriously, if that happens the fans need to rise up and say enough already.
Corey Brewer is the guy I want, he would be the PERFECT Laker in this fan's opinion. _________________ Love, Laker Lanny |

Unfortunately, after the tourny, now that everyone has seen that he steps up in big games, he won't be anywhere close to where we pick.
Personally I'd like to see us package our pick, the Bobcats pick and someone like Cook to trade up...really doesn't matter who for since it's too early to know anything anyway but I think we need to be higher to get a player who can come in and make an impact right away. Quality over quantity this draft. |

Unless atlanta gets a top 3 pick, the worst thing that WILL happen to the lakers is phoenix getting either the 4th or 5th pick because of atlanta. Depending on how things shake up, phoenix will have their choice of possibly B.Wright, Horford,Jianlian, Noah, Green, Brewer and others. Considering their starting 5 and sixth man depth, this can only be bad news for the lakers _________________ "99% of the players in the NBA would immediately have surgery to repair a torn ligament in their small finger, but
