With the Lakers losing so many games and having an estimated cap space of over $70 million next year they will have a great chance to get the #1 or #2 pick in this years NBA Draft plus they will have ample cash to lure all star and superstar players.

Call this,
The Lakers Make Over Steps:

#1. Draft Ben Simmons #1 pick or Brandon Ingram #2 pick of the Draft

#2. Sign Hassan Whiteside*

#3. Sign Demar Derozan*

#4. Convince Kevin Durant to sign with the recent acquisitions on board

#5. Trade Ben Simmons or Brandon Ingram to the Sixers to get Nerlens Noel, Robert Covington and a future 2nd Round Draft Pick

#6. Make the Playoffs

#7. Compete for a Championship

This line up would be scary!
PG
D'angelo Russell/ Lou Williams/ Marcelo Huertas
SG
Demar Derozan/ Jordan Clarkson
SF
Kevin Durant/ Robert Covington/ Anthony Brown
PF
Julius Randle/ Larry Nance Jr. / Brandon Bass
C
Hassan Whiteside/ Nerlens Noel/ Tarik Black

* Steps #2 or #3 will work either way!

I like this post a whole lot! I can tell it was very thought out. However if this did happen, I would like the Lakers to keep Ben Simmons or Brandon Ingram and allow which ever 1 the Lakers got to develop with the core youngsters, so not only would they be building a championship team for today but they would also have 1 for the future.
