I just want to add - It feels REAL good to be more accurate than Pelton last year. To the upside. |

Svi makes rookie 1st team. Lakers will lead the league in pace and pts scored and we'll have the number 1 bench scoring in league history. |

Spectrum panel just tempered our expectations by showing that LA won only 3 more games than they did the year before getting Shaq. Asshats of course did no research to discover that Shaq missed 30 gms that year with a knee injury. _________________ GOAT MAGIC REEL

Kuzma, Hart, and Ingram will be stars.
Zubac will be very good.
Bench will be the best in the league.
Defense will play like a top 5 D even though pace won't reflect low opposition points.
Role players will be very effective.
Rookies will be ready to effectively contribute if called on.
Improved Lonzo along with Rondo, will have targets everywhere to pass to.
The offense will look better, faster, more efficient than Summer 2017, or UCLA 2016/17.
Few dared to voice the number of games that will actually be won.
Season will and in the Western Conference Finals, or the NBA finals. |

I see GS HOU and OKC as the only sure bets to finish higher in west.
Anyone see the NBA TV schedule release show?
Dennis Scott was asked to rank his playoff teams. He had Lakers and Nuggets in playoffs replacing Minny and Pels from last year
Its a very tough year to pick these 8 which means a very good season of basketball |

lebron is there to sell tickets thats all.
they failed to team up lebron with another star.
unless lakers young team wakes up. it is very hard and another year of lebrons prime is wasted.
he just has 2 prime years left in him. he barely defends these days.
he was better off going to philli or staying at cleveland.
the main problem is lakers do not want to spend the money. so are others.
cleveland was the only team who spent money to get it done.
to match the best first you have to match the best in terms of financial power.
lakers trying to be in the cap wont work.
it is la la land. they must go 75 mil above salary cap to match GSW. and pass the price to consumers. I mean it is they who wanna see them win.
otherwise this wont cut it. |

|

it is quite possible if they the young core does not show drastic improvement.
the shooting is absolutely 3rd rate to say the least.
it is impossible to compete in todays nba if players cant make those open shots. and the best failed in time of need for lebron. korver went low budget and jr had already lost his touch. channing frye was only good for the east.
the new guys were just horrible: clerkson was the worst, IT was delusional, korver was lost, they had tried dunleavy, dwills and whoever they could get their hands on. others did not show up at all. kyrie was one guy who could help him but even he was gone!
I have no idea how they will address this issue in rampant shooting in west-coast.
they at least needed miles turner kind of a guy.
something dramatic needs to happen this season. make gsw miss playoffs( if some one there gets injured!).
it is difficult for lakers as everything is unknown and coach is not proven either.
may be kobe needs to get on court to knock down open 3's( he is barely 40). carter is still playing is it not?
surely i could use kobe's offense for 15 minutes!!!!
But basically it is up to young core+lebron to take it to promised land. |

I predicted 34 last season, one off.... This year I say "57"....
We finished 24-20. That is with a 4-11 last 15 games. We had a 20-9 streak in that time period. With the young guys a year older, and the other FA's, and of course BRON, I see 57 being the number.... |
