Don't troll them we don't need any of our guys getting suspended. But this is like a double chocolate brownie sunday with side of bacon! :nod:

1 year ago they were saying they were just gonna sign PG if we didn't take their garbage offer of Clarkson, Deng and Randle. :lol: :lol:

Kinda sad. I don't know but most of the Lakersfans on this board sound like they got 0 clue of whats going on in basketball.. being a homer is one thing but being completly delusional of whats up in the NBA and the Lakerfranchise.. i don't know..

has to get by Houston and more to even get to Warriors. unless of course Lakers get the Warriors before the finals. wouldn't a first round exit .... or a lottery finish. .... be fun.

I don't think they are gonna be that good, other than LBJ their roster looks jumbled up. It's still early and they could make some big trades we'll have to wait and see.

They havent all star player beside LeBron... they will struggle to reach PO spot... they are far away from WCF... GSW, Houston, Thunder, Utah, Minesotta, Spurs, Portland are still better teams...

their problem isn't just not enough stars. they're signing ball dominate players who can't shoot. players like Lance and Rondo aren't much help when LeBron has the ball and in the playoffs that's all game long.

That Rondo signing makes absolutely zero sense to me.

Yup. But Lebron loves his experienced vet teammates.

I agree unless the Spurs cave and trade them Kahwi Leonard for a pile of crap.

Their roster is a mess. Unless they think they can bring enough defense with LeBron, Rondo, Lonzo, Lance, and insider info from JaVale McGee to hold GSW below 80 points while LeBron scores 75 himself, I don't see how this roster competes. Maybe they've got more to come, maybe they do pull off a Kawhi trade, but I just don't see that happening. Ingram and Kuz are the only highly tradeable assets, unless someone bites on Lonzo despite his putrid shooting and his father. But what will that really gain them? If I were a Lakers fan, I'd be pumped to have LeBron, but more or less looking to the summer of 2019 already.
