The 2021 Lakers

[thomas1897]

The Lakers have serious problems. The top teams in the league have improved. The new up and coming teams have gotten better than ever(Phoenix, Portland and the Wizards there are more. The Lakers can not win on last years performance of 2020. This team is inconsistent and has mental lapses that effect the chemistry on offense. Defense is mediocre. Discounting the injuries the Lakers do not have enough forget Lebron and AD. The Clippers, Jazz, Denver, Milwaukee, Philadelphia, Phoenix and Portland all are better than the Lakers. Any comments

I dont expect anything from this year's team. I seriously doubt we even win a playoff match. I dont care who the opponent is, if they are Denver, Portland, Dallas, god forbid Clippers, we are toast. We cant beat them if we consistently have 4min scoring droughts at least two of them in every single game. Ever watch spectrum sportsnet coverage? They put up how long the Laker scoring drought is. And they put that up every single game lol. It is like when they dont make a shot, they NEVER make any shot for at least 4 mins. No one can make a basket. You can count on it. Doesnt matter how good your defense is if you cant even put the ball in the basket on the other side. I hope the Clippers goes on to eliminate whoever comes out of the east.

You know, I haven't done this in a while but Imma lock this thread... We just got AD back, we're about to get LeBron back, we added Drummond, who looks solid, we have Schroder and Trez, and we added a pure shooter in McLemore...

Saying we have no chance this season is ridiculous... Saying we rested on the success of 2020 also defies logic...

So the negative Nelly's on here need to tap the brakes, go outside and get some fresh air, and get some perspective...
