Felton of UNC make his teamates bettere. He made Sean May one of the most dominatining players in the nation. He made his team very good. If we draft him, Kobe wouldn't have as many ball-handling duties and will be able to focus more on defense and reboudning. The Lakers are coming. They could have been a contender this year but to all the doubters out there, just be ready because the Lakers are going to become a contender for a championship soon.
I believe I had the Lakers take a power forward (Chris Taft, Fran Vasquez) or a point guard (Deron Williams, Jarret Jack, Raymond Felton) It was either BAP point guard (Felton will probably be gone since a variety of teams need franchise point guards like the Jazz) or somebody that could be more of a power forward than Lamar Odom is. http://www.justbball.com/forums/showpost.p...20&postcount=41 Let me know what you think.

Knowing the history of Jerry Buss, he's very impatient and will take a player who's going to take a year or less to have an impact. There's a rumor floating around the Lakers are going to end up with the Pacers 1st pick in the draft along with Bender. Hopefully they can get a good PG & PF in round 1. I'd like Franz to be available at #10 and Mardy Collins with the Pacers pick.
Felton is a perfect pick. Strong defender and a good distributor that wont demand the ball and let everyone else shine and pick it up when he needs to.
Chris Taft? No... only if larry brown or phil are the coaches. he won't develop without a good coach.
