Sucking for Simmons now has a soundtrack - Lakers fans have no shame. 

They're already making rap videos about drafting Ben Simmons. So, it's safe to say they're content with finishing Kobe Bryant's farewell season with the worst record in the league to increase their chances of being able to nab the 6-10 do-it-all freshman out of LSU in the upcoming NBA Draft Lottery.

The song, "Coming Here" (Lakers Tank Anthem) is set to the beat of Kanye West's smash single "The Good Life," but the rapping is reminiscent of LMFAO. Peep lines such as, "I'mma get myself to L.A./There's no way/I play in Phill-ay" and "Keep balling down in college/And we'll keep tanking until we hit the bottom." 

The artist even takes a shot at Byron Scott, rapping "Don't mind the coach/He's bound to go."

The song also makes mention of reuniting Simmons, who's averaging 19.4 points, 12.1 rebound and 5.1 assists as a true freshman,with former Montverde Academy (Fla.) teammate last year's No. 2 overall pick point guard D'Angelo Russell. The two could help makeup a hopeful young core of talent which also includes Jordan Clarkson, Julius Randle and Larry Nance Jr.

It'd be an easy look for Simmons too. Both Montverde and LSU both wear purple and gold.

The Lakers are 11-44. The 76ers hold the worst record in the NBA at 8-45.

If you can't root for your team to be the best, you might as well cheer them on to be the best at being the worst.

Here's a taste of what all all the fuss is about, concerning the consensus No. 1 overall selection in the 2016 draft.
