They're gonna kick butt in the season, hit full peak mode in the playoffs, take out GSW swiftly and then bulldoze Boston.

Count on it! It's gonna happen.

Yep, the closer we are to getting to the season the more the feeling of this team playing at a high level is starting to gain steam.

BUCKLE UP!!! Its gonna be a special season!!

Guys we have every reason to think this team has a chance. We know what kinda talent we have on this squad!! These young guys are proving to be very hungry and eager to get better. We got the veteran support to get us through most every team in the playoffs

I really think its all about how we play together as a team! Talent wise tho.... I like our roster better than all of them except one(GSW).

30 games into the season people are going to start believing!

This team has the potential to be a dynasty... I really mean it, it’s gonna depend on the development of the young players and who we get in FA.

Man LeBron needs to go beyond god-mode all year long then. If all of this actually happened he would be the goat of all major sports that have ever existed, even ping pong.

100
This roster is loaded! If these guys go out and hoop like we all know they can!
For instance: I dont think Lonzo doesn't know how to shoot(he picked it up big time towards the end of the year)...I dont think he is that bad a free throw shooter(he just needs to concentrate). All of those lil things like that are gonna be the things that are gonna work themselves out this year because the kids know they are playing for something now.
I think BI is gonna thrive with Lebron and Kuz is gonna be Kuz (AGRESSIVE).
These are some really competitive kids. Not your average group! Really good mix of talent, heart, desire to be great, and basketball IQ.
We are deep enough to take a couple injuries this year and keep on tickin.


I really think its gonna be a COMPETE year!

haven’t been this excited for a Laker season in a long time, they can have more long term success then the Pau/Kobe Lakers, maybe even the Shaq era Lakers, if everything goes perfectly.

Unfortunately, this prediction is more LiAngelo than Lonzo.

I think they can go anywhere from missing the playoffs to winning the championship... there are too many variables to predict at this point.

All I know is they have nothing to lose and are playing with house money this year.

As fans we can relax and enjoy because even if they somehow do poorly we'd get a lotto pick and a max player in a worse case scenario this season.

I think if the youngsters develop and the vets do what they are supposed to do that we can get to the WCF... and once there, anything can happen.

So deep! So young! So much room for growth! Add an all star caliber player next year and I can see DYNASTY. Magic and Pelinka gonna have a hard time keeping all of these guys on the team tho. So for guys like Beasley, Lance, KCP, maybe even Rondo its all about winning it ALL this year.(Kobe thinks we have the roster to win it all this year)

I think some of the guys on the roster will give discount to comeback next year, they know this team has a chance to do be good for a while.

I am going to say this. Magic and Lebron are not messing around and being cute with this season and team. They mean business. I believe that whole heartedly.

Killer instinct between both men is OFF the chart. Very few players in the history of the NBA or even sports, have what Magic and Lebron have. Put them together, wow.

I love all the moves they made and frankly don't care that some folks didn't like player A or trading player X. Magic and Lebron know a heck of a lot more than we do.

Championship would be nice out of the gate but I don't expect that. I do think they will be the real deal this year and they will be all the buzz of the NBA.

I think the Heat, when Lebron joined was kind of a "cute" team. You know what I mean. High gloss and glam, not really killer. Of course they had a nice run.

This team with the combo of vets and young guns, has more of a killer/nastiness to them. I do think it will show some after the season starts.

Gotta love Rondo, Lebron, Ball, Kuzma, Ingram.....all day long.

Yep. Agreed with all points above. I am getting more and more optimistic that we seriously have a good (albeit small chance) of winning it all THIS year. The fact that that is a possibility already is very exciting for us Laker fans.

Good post, people forget about the old washed up players Miami collected when they were contenders... Mike Bibby/Rashard Lewis/Mike Miller/ and some other guys I probably forgot to mention there only real vet contributor was Ray Allen, it’s amazing the effect LeBron had on the Heat if he didn’t have real Impact the Heat wouldn’t have had a significant drop off when he left.

I agree that this team is more special it really depends if we get some guys in the next couple of years to surround them with LeBron and the young guys.
