While I think most are not bullish on the lakers even cracking 30 wins, 15 is a clown take. I’m not surprised as that dude can sometimes be extremely pessimistic, grating and sometimes a hater depending on which team he is talking about. I’ve seen him get called out on twitter for those qualities before.
25? Sure
15? That’s just setting yourself up to look like a clown. |
25 is also unacceptable, we need to have significant progress this season or we are gonna strike out in FA again, we need the players to have a good year |
I think so too, just saying I could see that scenario happening if things don’t click, but to say 15 lmao that comes off as just a hater rather than an actual, reasonable prediction. |

| Yeah, 25-35 wins is a reasonable prediction, everything is gonna depend on health, as we all saw a injury like Hayward sustained.. can ruin a season... |

Link shows Clippers are favored over Lakers by 5.
The underdog will be indicated with a + sign, in this case it shows Lakers +5. |

| After SL, I thought 35-37 wins. After seeing BI and KCP in preseason, I have to go with a 31-51 record. |

Lol this is me exactly, except after SL, i was talking myself into an 8th seed. After seeing BI and KCP, and that Randle is the same player, AND realizing how unlikely it is Lonzo plays a whole season (and then we can struggle in both the halfcourt AND fullcourt) with his build (get on that Curry hip-training program ASAP), i'm feeling 28 wins.  |

I wonder how long until Booker wants out, they will obviously fire Watson, but it seems like Booker might never find success with that team. |

he is a 2nd year player...he gets to do whatever he wants...doubt he will want out as long as that is the way they play....in my opinion, he is part of the reason they lose...he is an nonathletic chucker that can do very little else. |
