Lakers fans can take solace in the fact that Magic Johnson has the good of the franchise in mind when he makes such egregious comments.
I mean can you imagine the Lakers competing for a shot at the No.1 pick and possibly Jahlil Okafor or Emmanuel Mudiay.
The Hall of Fame point guard told Newsday that he would prefer the Lakers lose every game.
I hope the Lakers lose every game. Because if you’re going to lose, lose. I’m serious.
If you’re going to lose, you have to lose because you can’t be in the middle of the pack. You either have to be great or you have to be bad to get a good pick.
The Lakers are in a good space, too, next summer if they can sign or trade for a talented guy. I’d rather be all the way bad than be in the middle
