That team is hot garbage, and their defensive back court is mega-super-extreme-poopy-doo-doo bad. We are not going to need to worry about who is covering Kobe's 35% barrage of 16-20 foot jumpers, but the Lakers are going to have a serious problem keeping the Bledsoe/Dragic/IT combo from dropping a combined 70+ points on 60% shooting.
The Lakers are going to suck out loud. Their roster is a bunch of varying degrees of weakness. They have zero defenders, little rebounding, terrible outside shooting, their fans comically rave about the depth... even though they can't even put 4 legitimate starters on the court. Thats a sub 30 win team.
Who should replace Tucker in the starting lineup?

Yeah and they defeated us last season which was an extremely important game for the 8th spot. I'm not saying we'll lose but never underestimate an opponent that much.

Any game can be lost by any team. However, if the Suns lose to the Lakers it will probably be because we played like crap. Similar to the reason we lost to them last year.

Yea Kaman's gone but they got Randle now who is well capable of kicking Plumlee's ass just like any other big man in the NBA.

I know pre season doesn't mean much but Kobe sure didn't look bad last night. I don't think this game will be super easy unless we start to catch on fire early...we need to find a way to slow down Kobe too, he was killing it out there with Dragic guarding him.
