These are point guards with Player Option, Team Option, Restricted Free Agent. Unrestricted Free Agents. Who would you choose? The poll question is misleading.

As stated in your other thread, I would prefer Doncic over any of the options listed. Trae Young would be second and Lilliard third. _________________ Damian Lillard shatters Dwight Coward's championship dreams:

Unless I missed something, none of those players have Player Option, Team Option, Restricted Free Agent. Unrestricted Free Agents. _________________ Be who you are and say what you feel because those who mind don't matter and those who matter don't mind.

Lonzo seems like the perfect player to be here. Zo and AD for the next 10 years to build around but even for right now, a knock down 3 point shooter, playmaking pg with arguably top 5 court vision and passing ability in the league, who's also a great defender? How is he not the perfect fit?

You don't build around Zo. He is a role player nothing more

Solid 3-point catch and shoot percentage at high volume? Check
Can play the point as needed but doesn’t need the ball in his hands to be a success? Check.
Tall enough and fast enough to defend well at both the one and two? Check.
He may be a role player, but he's the perfect compliment to a team led by LeBron and AD.
I don’t know how we can sign him without too much handicapping from the hard cap, but I’d love it if the Lakers can swing it.

I don't understand why in the world you think Dallas would trade Doncic.
You understand that the personnel changes they've made this offseason are to appease Luka, right? They're not going to turn around and trade him, especially for anything we have to offer.

I don't think he'd be a good fit with the Lakers. He needs the ball in his hands. I think he and LeBron would clash. He's an Alpha Dog, so is Bron. _________________ Be who you are and say what you feel because those who mind don't matter and those who matter don't mind.

hardaway jr is not a pg
You're right. He's listed as a Small forward on the roster. Tim's only 6'5" that's not SF height. The list I pulled has him available as a PG. He plays more SG than any other position. _________________ Be who you are and say what you feel because those who mind don't matter and those who matter don't mind.

I just don’t see us getting hard capped for any of these guys right now.
We've got a 2 year window. Barring landing a superstar there's no reason for us to be pinching pennies. We're the freaking Lakers. _________________ How NBA 2K18 failed the All-Time Lakers:

For those in favor of Lonzo ball I have two questions
He seems to get hurt a lot does anybody have a problem with that
And
Is daddy ball still an issue with his mouth
He does get dinged so that is a little bit of a concern but i would personally take that risk. his dad has 2 other boys to distract him and overall seems to be less visible after bbb failed corruptly.

True. I don't get how people are still filled by this. I'm not saying the kid sucks but taking him #2 was a disaster. One of the worst draft picks in Lakers history. He was picked before: Jayson Tatus, Donavan Mitchell, DeAndre Fox, and Bam Adebayo to name a few. Haven't Lakers fans learned this. Has the Lakers picked any of those, and kept them, we would have still gotten LBJ and AD and would be set for the next several years.

We made up for taking him at 2 by getting AD and winning ring. He has reverted back to his UCLA days which is awesome. He defends, hits 3$ and makes plays. He is a younger rondo

How would we have gotten AD without trading them Ball or whoever we had drafted instead of him? _________________ Damian Lillard shatters Dwight Coward's championship dreams:

Zo seems to have difficulty complimenting his game with Zion (seemingly a younger version of LBJ), how will he compliment LBJ’s game and does he have a high enough Basketball IQ to be trusted by LBJ - now?
Closing Lineup
AD
LBJ
Caruso (assumption)
KCP
Zo????
Who would be the consistent and dependable outside shooters for AD/LBJ to spread the floor??????
At least with Caruso, he is always moving/cutting/back-fooring/screening

zo has never had a good coach. IMO that is why pels were not great. I dont know how willie green will do but they better hope he does amazing because no way Zion stays there.
