reading the last page of this thread, makes me hate the fact that being a Lakers fan we RARELY can get a top rookie to be excited about.
As a sports fan I enjoy thinking and discussing about the future of young rookies and what can be......

Why? If you have a top rookie or high draft pick, it means your team sucks balls a majority of the time. I'm fine with not having a rookie to watch play for a s**tty team

I remember getting Kobe in 96' man that was nice... Seeing him struggle then become the player that is now... Its just awesome.. Being a Lakers fan you rarely get to see a young player come up through the organization.

Interesting prospect out of France. Frail as s**t, but he's still just 20 years old. He's 7'2" with a 7'9" wingspan (
) and what I really like about him is that he's VERY agile for his size. Most guys his size are awkward and lumbering. He has quick feet and reaction time. Every time I read about him at an all-star camp, everyone talks about how he completely shuts down the paint.
