Past few years started at 8 and dwindled to 6 as the season wore on me.

Ever since it became a possibility to get Ball, truly a 10. Love watching the team this year. Kuzma amd Ingram are just such an unexpected surprise. Randle off the bench has been a beast. Clarkson enjoying the 6th man role. The prospect of adding 1 or 2 All Stars.

I am just over the top and elated!

This year is definitely a 10. The last couple of years I would "Watch" every game but would be doing work on the computer or some other things around the house while game was on. This year I sit in front of the TV and watch from start to finish like old times.

10 - love watching this young team grow with every game

10 for me was Shaq and Kobe, prime Kobe, Kobe and Pau, and then the Dwight fiasco.

Probably an 8 at this point definitely up from a 6-7 these last couple of years. Not sure if I'll ever go back to 10 without Kobe. I do enjoy watching games of other teams now more so than before.

About a 6-7.

A solid 8.5 or 9.

I try my best to watch or record every game from start to finish.
I actually created a thread a year or 2 ago about how my passion had been at an all-time low. They were just hard to cheer for. But now that there is some light at the end of the tunnel and the team has a positive energy... it's exciting.

I rarely see games unless they are in espn or TNT. 10 was the Magic and prime Kobe days. Right now it's about a 7 on my interest scale.

10. I actually think I like watching the young guys get better more than watching when we were favorites.

It's a team that isn't that good now and it's in transition. The question is whether the transition works -- will the young guys people are exciting about now pan out or will Ingram, Kuz, and Ball be distant memories in 3 or 4 years? Heck if I know.

I am more of a long run person, and don't get too worked up about the day to day, or the week to week; so the team, at this moment, is like a TV set playing deep in the background. It's up to them to play well enough to make me set aside all the other things in my life and make me care about them; so far they haven't.

Love watching the Randle Kuzma BI Lonzo lineups 10 when those four are on the court, 7 the rest of the time

I love watching the young team grow, but watching Luke coach takes like 4 notches off the 10 scale. So 6.... Right now.

10 — this year’s team is really fun to watch. They’ve been competitive in pretty much every game, no matter who they played. Love watching the progression of the young core.

Sometimes it's a bit hard watching the mistakes our team makes but damn it feels good to have a young and stable core.
