Boozer is at least twice better than Roy Hibbert.

I thought a recovered Kobe and Randle plus a revamped roster and the excitement of having a top draft pick would land us a .500 team at best.

I don't think anyone even predicted this would be Kobe's last season.

I guess I should publicly take my lumps too.

I was one of the overly optimistic that was predicting 35 wins with a chance to compete for a playoff spot if everything fell into place. Even supported Scott and defended his abilities to run the team this year ... way too much!

Obviously I was wrong. Disappointed in the team and direction they are going. Getting frustrated with how they are not even competitive any longer. And the young guys are picking up some bad habits and attitudes. IMO an embarrassing acceptance of losing. Never thought I would see this day as a Laker fan.

And probably worst of all is the mentality of ownership, Kupchak and the coaches. No plan for recovery other then fairy tale quick fixes . No consistent systems on either end of the court to set a foundation to build from that I can see. Sorry but "man up" is not a viable plan.

What a complete clusterf**k!

Kind of comical that I still watch though. Never miss a game. what does that say about me

Had hope for about 25-30 wins in early July, but seeing that pic of Kobe over the summer looking about 185 pounds put me back on the tankwagon. Summer league was bad and the preaseason was ominous. First game was the whole season in a nutshell, we saw what the Lakers could be, and then what this season would be.
