...come here
last year i taped/watched/game thread almost every game
Name on the Jersey is the same, but everyone is uninteresting except Kuz, Caruso, Kostas
No "exciting" players to watch, except old Lebron
AD is boring to me, and apparently to a lot of people. He was not even top 15 in jersey sales last year (and don't say its because of NO, because Russ, Dame, PG, Giannis were all in top 15
not really interested watching Dudley, KCP, Rondo, Green, Avery Bradley, Cousins go to work _________________ I got Nothing interesting to put here |

Pretty excited for next season. I like our roster and I like how the NBA has been rebalanced. Can't wait to find out how we do. |

Would you rather have Derrick Rose or AD?
Derrick Rose in top 15 of jersey sales. |

Kobe's excited...but I can understand why you wouldn't be.
1. LBJ and prime AD
2. Solid Staff and Good Depth
3. Competing for our 1st Ring since 2012 after too many losing seasons to count.
4. Guys who can hit the 3 ball and back to back FTs
There is so much to be underwhelmed by...and thanks for creating a thread to tell us all how you feel. I'm sure you don't need attention. _________________ "If You're Afraid To Fail...Then You're Probably Going To Fail."

It's a legit question. Winning is nice but style is good too.
For example. I was gonna go to US- Spain game in Anaheim. But the roster is boring. They'll win ..but Drummond, Middleton, etc don't interest me _________________ I got Nothing interesting to put here |

We have young veterans who aren't old
Beyond Lebrons skills and natural talents
He is an Elite Athletic genetic freak... I don't see his slowing down being the same as others his age...
Rondo is sort of reminding me of some old dude smoking on the bench at park games in between games.. If his load isn't too much then he can focus on his strengths and keep his head focused better
if Caruso stays healthy with JKidd on his hip and penberthy keeping his shot tuned.. wow... gonna be fun.. White Lightning!!
Quinn.. young
Green reminds me of Derek Fisher.. a True Professional as a teammate and player..
I am excited about this team
Kobe and Shaq were as good as Lebron/AD/Kuz combined.. that wasn't boring |

Only in today's world can people be so egotistical as to trivialize the reason for the competition and demonstrate an entitlement to decide how winning should be accomplished without investing any sweat equity into the actual process.
If winning bores you I suggest researching what David Carradine was into...he literally loved what he loved to death. _________________ "If You're Afraid To Fail...Then You're Probably Going To Fail."

A fan is always excited; if not, you are not a fan but an observer. |

Winning is not boring.
Team being exciting is my point. If all winning/success was fun how many of the LA Sparks championships did you or ppl tune into.
A roster/team can be exciting/fun/interesting whatever word you want to use. This team roster apart from LeBron, Kuz is boring to me. What wrong with that? _________________ I got Nothing interesting to put here |

A fan can be bored. Trust I'm a fan. I'll probably be in the game thread all nights. But I'll say showtime lakers, Nick Van exel days with threatt and peeler...Shaq and Kobe...Kobe and Lamar and bynum...Kobe, dlo, randle, to Zo, Kuz, LeBron...way more exciting.
Just my opinion no hate meant. Maybe I'm the only one with this perspective _________________ I got Nothing interesting to put here |

If you aren't excited to watch and see what this team and coaching staff as assembled can do, after whats happened the last 6-7 years.....maybe you just aren't excited about Lakers basketball. |

I don’t agree with your feeling on this, but I understand it.
The team doesn’t feel like “my” team yet. |
