It may be kinda bad to answer this after the draft, but I'm gonna answer it anyway.
Before the draft, I was hoping that Farmar wouldn't get drafted since UCLA will be in trouble without him. But if he does get drafted, I was hoping he would go to the Lakers, since that's like his home team and is also mine. Now that he did get drafted, I'm kinda happy, and kinda sad. Happy, because he's with the Lakers and not any other team, and sad, because UCLA lost him.

I really don't. I don't think he'd be the best fit for their needs. They've said they're most interested in Shannon Brown or Shawne Williams.
Jordan Farmar measured the highest maximum verticle in the draft (something like 40-41 inches), but doesn't shoot the ball too well. And, since this draft is pretty deep with point guards, I think they can find someone who fits their team better. He does have good size, which Phil jackson likes at the point guard spot. Still, I think if Brown or Williams weren't available, they should look for a combo guard like Quincy Douby, or maybe Sergio Rodriguez slides that far. Farmar wouldn't be the worst pick in the world, but I think they need to surround Kobe with some outside shooters. His hometown ties might make him the more favorable player, though.

If he's available, yes.
