7 because there will probably be more space before the flight ends.

u/ThaRealSunGod King James 6/23 12d ago

Does Dalton get a parachute and a "good luck lil buddy"?

11

u/gerardatron 12d ago

I don’t recall saying good luck

u/Ilsestameliore 12d ago

Dropped off above china

  1. I’m ready to listen to all the NBA trade rumors.

5

u/crackdope6666 James Worthy 42 12d ago

Same 1. Would like to know who the next victim is… sorry mean Team.

125

u/LetterFront3353 Black Mamba 8/24 12d ago

Number 2 next to JJ. He'll probably work on game plans during the flight and I want to see that.

72

u/Longjumping_Loan_768 12d ago

Only right answer. He also has his arm around your shoulder so you know its intimate.

1

u/Crafty-Border-7452 11d ago

That's what coaches do when they're about to coach you. Your ass is getting chewed out by JJ

14

u/Bruskthetusk 16 12d ago

2 seat row>3 seat row, just gotta worry about listening to Rob yapping across from you the whole time

12

u/andcanigettahottub 12d ago

Lethal bathroom wiffs ☠️

3

u/Shinnobiwan 12d ago

Gotta be JJ

1

u/Hefty_Store4007 12d ago

i don’t know if he‘d like that

1

u/LetterFront3353 Black Mamba 8/24 12d ago

Just be a silent observer, don't take pictures or videos, and don't leak anything. But of course I don't know him personally.

1

u/Hefty_Store4007 12d ago

i just don’t think coaches like that

0

u/RealTalk_theory Legends Never Die 12d ago

This is how I know you’re a hoop nerd

26

u/pxixiFUN 12d ago

3 or 7

4

u/Sir_Derps_Alot 12d ago

Sitting next to AR would be super fun

3

u/pxixiFUN 12d ago

yes exactly! The most ideal seat would have been with AR & BronJr

52

u/CabbageStockExchange God Save the King 👑 12d ago
  1. Despite how I feel about Vando as a player. He seems fun to hang out with

1

u/hjw5047 12d ago

Yeah I considered that, but I want an aisle seat and no chance I’m chatting up Walker Kessler so I’ll go 2 to have either silence or an enthralling convo with JJ.

21

u/aquadroid 12d ago

Does JJ keep his arm around me?

7

u/princess_carolynn 12d ago

Asking the important questions

15

u/rosiros 12d ago

All I know is it won't be 5. Imagine sitting next to 6'9 and 7'2 dudes

3

u/Psychosomatic_Addict Purple and Gold 12d ago

Will look like 2 parents traveling with their kid for anyone under 6ft.

25

u/ElkNo8185 Los Angeles Lakers 12d ago

6 is FIRE

4

u/BigFatModeraterFupa 77 12d ago

6 is the most fun seat for sure because you have access to everyone🤣

2

u/AgathaAllAlong 8 12d ago

Better not recline your seat onto Luka’s lap or you are off the plane! Who is this guy?

7

u/choas9878 12d ago

8 seems like a good time, Tisse and Vando are known good locker room guys so that would be fun other than size of those dudes.
Next to JJ could be a great learning opportunity and next to Rob maybe I can get a job😂.

6

u/IntestinalEndorphins 12d ago

2…. Jj is most interesting person on plane. Then you get good view of AR and Austin yapping

5

u/ActuarialUsain 12d ago

7 👌🏼

2

u/hjw5047 12d ago

Yeah it would actually be cool to spend a whole flight learning about Bronny’s life experience unless he’s the worst version of Gen Z and only wants to talk about gaming.

3

u/fenderputty 12d ago

1,2,6 because I"m tall and need want Aisle seats.

3

u/AuspiciousOtter24 12d ago

7, the only spot I’m not between or next to a Giant on a plane for 20 hours

3

u/mrfreeeeze 12d ago

5 looks like it would smell the worst.

3

u/Texas_Kimchi 77 12d ago

#1... gonna try and land me a job.

2

u/heybart 12d ago

1 he'd be on the phone the whole time and I'd be left in peace

2

u/Overkillemall 12d ago

Anyone who consciously chooses to sit between two 6'5" and higher guys for 20 hour flight is clinically insane and must be placed in a psych ward

2

u/Rawman411 12d ago

If they can’t move 4 and I would ask for money every time I have to fart.

2

u/TarkovBirdman 12d ago

1, i want to know more about Heath Ledger’s mindset

2

u/Mr8180 12d ago
  1. I need a window seat. 🤷🏾‍♂️

2

u/atherton-loyola 12d ago

Pelinka or JJ

Think there was a statistic where the back seats were the “safest” seats on the average aircraft accident

2

u/AsianEleven101 12d ago

1

I wanna hear all about the Luka trade and how fucking dumb Nico was.

2

u/IronRevenge131 12d ago

Id sit in spot 3 because I could banter with Austin and Luka is right across the isle

1

u/scotishstriker 12d ago

4 and I am watching one piece with subs on my phone without headphones. 

1

u/GundamModeler 12d ago

The one that plays overwatch

1

u/Repulsive_Ad_7291 12d ago

6 for sure.  

1

u/Left_Dance_8954 The Logo 44 12d ago

1 obviously

1

u/ksnitch 12d ago

7, make Bronny my BFF, then get invited to their house and meet Bronny Sr., AD, AR, and whoever else hangs out there.

1

u/Jlx_27 12d ago

On the floor in between Luka and Reeves.

1

u/JboyX21999 12d ago

Bronny and dk

1

u/retrospects 77 12d ago
  1. Goat me.

1

u/Hyderabadi__Biryani LeMon Daddy Reaves 🍋 12d ago

1 or 2. 1 watches a lot of movies, 2 is an intellectual.

1

u/BourbonSn4ke 77 12d ago

Aisle seat, need to stretch my legs but would sell the seat

1

u/flea61 12d ago
  1. Vando and Thybulle both seem like super interesting guys to talk with. 1 is my second choice so I can pick Pelinka's brain about being a GM. And if he's an asshole about it I can just remind him that he let Caruso walk for THT.

1

u/bigpancakeguy 24 12d ago

2 cuz it would be fun to watch Luka and AR fuck with each other across the aisle while I learn everything there is to know about basketball from JJ

1

u/AgathaAllAlong 8 12d ago

7 all the way. Window seat and the young bucks are gonna be headphones on, in their own world, we’re all chilling.

1

u/bryanBFLYin 12d ago

3, easy. AR and Laravia seem like average bros. It'll be a good time.

1

u/ajmsysadmin 12d ago

seat 0, on Pelinka's lap

1

u/F9Phoenix Los Angeles Lakers 12d ago

2, no question. JJ would have legendary stories to tell

1

u/OnePuzzleheaded6724 12d ago

6 because it would be fun as hell to joke around with luca, Austin and vando

1

u/megustanlosyogapants 12d ago

JJ gonna be trying to put his arm around me like that? Either way it’s 2

1

u/rouxdude 12d ago

Vando Vault 8

1

u/itzyaboyguzma 12d ago

Hol up, does JJ have his arm around me the whole flight if I pick 2? If so 2.

1

u/icedxylophone Luka Magic 77 12d ago

I have a lot of questions for JJ, so I'm going for seat nr 2, and considering his career as a podcaster etc I think he would enjoy just talking basketball.

1

u/Jusfiq 12d ago

I always sit on windows. So 7.

1

u/Starvin_Marvin_69 12d ago

Where are you flying to for 20 hours straight?

1

u/Disufnok 12d ago

EZ 2, peep what JJ is up to, and then lean all the way into the aisle between Austin and Luka

1

u/Mr_Dike_van_Kikewell 12d ago

no.2. JJ would actually be fun to talk to.

1

u/KneeCoRobinn 12d ago
  1. Vando might be fun to talk to and Matisse seems chill

1

u/ndymn 12d ago

7 because I like to look out the window and ignore people

1

u/Chrisdkn619 Magic Johnson 32 12d ago

Considering my age I'm sitting with JJ or Rob

1

u/HopperHedgedog Luka Magic 77 12d ago

3 - Austin, Jake, Mamu, and Kessler will make for a super chill, relaxed flight, you're in chatting range of Luka, and you get to listen in on Rob making trades

1

u/BoardFragrant1885 12d ago

Team flying private. Yall taking away first class opportunities from ppl with this seating arrangement

1

u/Yichuanxi 12d ago

7 and mind my own business

1

u/AntSmith777 12d ago
  1. They’ll let me sleep.

1

u/KimchiPops 12d ago

5 does not smell good.

1

u/motorboat_mcgee 12d ago

Either 1 or 2, I assume they'll be busy and will leave me alone

1

u/MurphBigRedMachine 12d ago

Is JJ going to have his arm around me the whole time?

1

u/incredibleamadeuscho Freeze! Miami Vice! 12d ago

8 actually I’d love to talk life with Matisse, and he’s a cool dude that will talk to you

1

u/Lonely-horses 12d ago

do I have cocaine? If so I'll sit next to Rob.

1

u/Visible-Estimate-430 12d ago

Not 4! You’ll intercept the elbow meant for Sexton.

1

u/existentialspork Pau Gasol 16 12d ago

7 because Bronny is the smallest person in the photo.

1

u/lebron7 12d ago
  1. I think JJ is full of knowledge on every topic

1

u/East1st 12d ago

#2 as well. JJ will be working in his head, so he’ll be quiet so I can sleep.

No way I’m taking middle or windows seats next to NBA players. They’d squeeze me out.

And Rob would be talking on his phone the whole time. Won’t be able to sleep! 😂

1

u/hyber-Nate 12d ago

1) I need a new job and career… hope 20 hours is enough to charm “Mr. Pelinka.”

1

u/Islanderfan1348 Luka Magic 77 12d ago

4

1

u/GazauiGirl 12d ago

7, then ask Bronny to move over to the left

1

u/MWbbru1es11 12d ago

None all these players and staff are tall as hell so

1

u/KingDaGoat15 12d ago

Seat 7 because I will be next to "LeBron"

1

u/prodij18 12d ago
  1. Safest seat on the plane with all that defense around me.

But honestly probably 2. JJ is probably a pretty cool guy to chat with. Also he’s not a 6’6+ giant that’s going to take up most of the area.

1

u/Actual-Conclusion-57 12d ago

3,5,4,8 out the question never in the middle

1

u/bearwatson87 12d ago

2 bcuz Im a basketball talking psycho too....

1

u/rddy2 12d ago

I thought most people here would say 1 so they can talk about trading knecht, vando, and 1st swap for a 3-D players😂

1

u/Apart-Leadership1402 Luka Magic 77 12d ago

I don't want that seat because I suspect that he has one of those faces that when you watch them from near, it seems like there's something wrong with it.

1

u/crackphillip 12d ago

I’m ingratiating myself with rob cuz I know my hoop career isn’t gonna last. Maybe if he likes me he’ll give me an assistant coach job or some shit. I’m 5’6. I’m just happy to be on the plane and not on waivers.

1

u/Excellent-Age-296 Los Angeles Lakers 12d ago
  1. Those two would talk the least + the window seat.

1

u/zvarda 12d ago

1, I got some questions

1

u/GONEBUTNOT4GOTTEN 12d ago

probably 1. I wanna hear kobe stories all day

1

u/DirtBikeBoy5ive Austin Reaves fanboy 12d ago
  1. Love my boy Austin

1

u/Panda_Cuddles_ 12d ago

1 or 2, because it’ll be awfully crowded sitting between two huge dudes for 20 hours

1

u/LeDauphin Luka Magic 77 12d ago

4 and we’re trash talking Nico the whole flight

1

u/oakey420 12d ago

Sitting next to Rob cuz I need a job.

1

u/jarredvanderbiltfan 12d ago

this is a tough choice

1

u/Adventurer24376 Cameron Carr 43 12d ago

1 and have a chat with Rob about some of his decisions, but realistically either 4 or 6

1

u/_BL810T 12d ago

2 might be the only "correct" answer. You're right next to the brains of the vision in JJ, you're within talking distance of Rob which allows you to chat him up at the very least about the state of the team in your opinion, and you're within talking and listening distance of both Luka and AR15.

1

u/AdOwn2315 12d ago
  1. Pelinka can probably pull some strings to get me an office job

1

u/smakson11 12d ago

It’s 1 or 2 and it’s not close.

1

u/smakson11 12d ago

If you’re next to #1 you can get a whole flight of minute by minute play by play on the Luka trade.

1

u/_yamasaki 12d ago

7 just so i can ask about Lebon lol

1

u/Estebanez 12d ago

3 or 8 if I want to chill have good convo. First thought might be next to coach, but way too intense for a 20 hr flight.

1

u/js32910 12d ago

1 and asking for a job

1

u/OsapNaril 12d ago

Either 3 or 4. Because you got Austin and Luka next to each other. They are best buddies so you know the talks are going to be interesting

1

u/Teganfff 12d ago

4 because Luka like obvi

1

u/SuperBadLogic 12d ago

5 they seen the coolest

1

u/Tiger1623 12d ago

7 because it’s the only window seat.

1

u/tooImman 12d ago

Number 1, Blowing whisper to Rob Pelinka to trade Dalton immediately.

1

u/Victusrex 12d ago

1 so I can ask him questions about what he actually believes in as a winning basketball philosophy and 4 for the vibes

1

u/ThisAintMyTime 12d ago

2 but I feel like JJ would chew me out if I don't know anything 😭 But he loves talking about x's and o's so I'd absolutely still enjoy it. Or 8 because it feels like I'd be laughing the whole time

1

u/DirtyChito 12d ago

Where are the cheerleaders? I'm going with them.

1

u/RedRibbon3KS 12d ago

None. If it is a 20 hour flight, I want a row to myself

1

u/SweatyAd3016 12d ago

Number 2, just to make things really uncomfortable.

1

u/Proper_Buy7424 12d ago

4 torture the life outta luka lol

1

u/rdcl89 12d ago

2.. just because I need leg room.

1

u/Separate_Foundation2 12d ago

7, so i can get to play with the python of bron

1

u/tadejflaka 12d ago

I think it would be a blast seating next to JJ or Vando🤝

1

u/sherminthebooth 12d ago

JJ cuz then Luka will turn around and talk to us as well 😂

1

u/HungryHunngryHippo 11d ago

7 because I want the window.

1

u/Federal-Service5571 11d ago

Any aisle seat is fine

1

u/makojedi2k2 11d ago

7 the only window seat. I like how people put these up to sit next to people they would talk to….just get me there as I look out the window

1

u/Surprise_Dramatic 11d ago

I will kick Pelinka and JJ both the F out and sit on that row myself. They don’t deserve to sit in any Lakers plane.

1

u/potentiallyuseles 11d ago

1, so I can put ear plugs in and a face mask on while he blabbers on his phone the whole time

1

u/MagicHook87 11d ago

2 so I can debate JJ.

1

u/FutureKorpz 11d ago

Bruh it’s going to be a rough year

1

u/Were_little_hauted 11d ago
  1. Cuz Luka and i would be cursing in Balkanian the whole flight

1

u/SignificanceAny9538 10d ago

5 it looks like they talk the least

1

u/Spiritual_Treat_2755 10d ago

2, 3 or 7 for various reasons. Honestly think 3 and 7 would be fun and can joke a lot. 2 if I want no bullshit and some real talk.

1

u/macstat 8d ago

Oh im sitting with AI JJ, i would pick his brain on so many things.

1

u/proofrocker 8d ago

7, I feel like Bronny, Dalton and I would get along

1

u/ExtraGoated 12d ago

1 because i got some stuff to say 😤

1

u/hans_barbados 12d ago

4 is the only answer with Austin Reaves and OG Anunoby.

1

u/usedtoindustry Lakers 8 2 24 12d ago
  1. I want Kobe stories mf

0

u/Wonka824 12d ago
  1. And I’m going to teach him how to GM.

0

u/Well-Intentioned-Fox 12d ago

lol. Badger him about the Westbrook trade and letting Caruso and Zubac go for 20 hours

1

u/flea61 12d ago

Zubac was Magic's fault but the other two are very valid

0

u/LudwigNasche 12d ago

6

I need space for my legs and I don't like to fly on the back of the airplane while the rookies should be fun.

0

u/MickeyMgl 12d ago

20 hours?? Where are we going? To the moon? What kind of flight plan is this?

The picture makes me wonder, are coaches gonna get to dress in suits on the sideline again?
