Tracking the Draft Stock of Louisiana's Elfrid Payton

[CajunEXPRESS]

Fourteen I believe. I think every team not in the playoffs are in the lottery, and all their picks are considered lottery picks.

This. The Lakers are down for now, but Hollywood and the Lakers are the place to get EP his best shot at fame, and fortune, and oh yea, good for UL. Would love for him to be a hall of fame player as a Laker. I know I am getting way to far out in front but I do not care.

I couldn't care less if the Lakers stay down forever. That being said, if Payton is drafted by the Lakers then I retract that statement!

The Lakers have what the 5th pick in the draft? Would they be looking at him as their 2nd pick? I can't see him going THAT high (5th)

I think the Lakers pick 7th and Sacramento 8th.

I think the Lakers are trying to talk themselves into picking EP. The Lakers are going to pick the winner of today's workout - Smart or EP.

I never liked the Lakers, do not like the Lakers, but for maximum benefit to EP and UL that is the ultimate destination. Would be for me as if Jake had gone to Dallas( I hate the Cowboys), would have loved for him to play there and get the national accolades.

Chad Ford just compared EP to Gary Payton on Cowherds show.

Funny tweet from the day he announced he was going in the draft:

The green room is "where" Andy.

What does that reply from Andy say? "@TomMartinKATC Really? His jump..."

Jr Bus is a clown. I don't see great things going forward for LAL. I wish he'd go a little later. If you notice, most of the lottery teams are perennial lottery pickers.
