Gambling website Bovada projects Lakers' win total at 32 1/2 games

Bovada must be counting on Bryant's missing games with further injury issues, or on the team simply struggling for wins in the competitive Western Conference.

Bovada has the Lakers 12th in the West, behind the Oklahoma City Thunder (57 1/2 wins), San Antonio Spurs (57), Clippers (54 1/2), Golden State Warriors (50), Houston Rockets (49 1/2), Dallas Mavericks (49 1/2), Memphis Grizzlies (49), Phoenix Suns (44), Portland Trail Blazers (44), New Orleans Pelicans (43) and Denver Nuggets (41 1/2).

Only the Sacramento Kings (29 1/2 wins), Minnesota Timberwolves (26 1/2) and Utah Jazz (24 wins) project to finish behind the Lakers in the conference.

Nice.

[AcecardZ]

If I had money I could afford to tie up I'd bet the over for a pretty large number.

As an outsider I feel like the floor for this team is 35 wins, assuming no catastrophic injuries. Really hoping for one final ride with Kobe and Nash, would be great to see a couple aging legends put it all together one last time.

The media is definitely sleeping on your team, and floppymoose's predictions have been just laughable at times. He predicted Charlotte would only reach 29 wins or something ridiculous like that. It's surreal for the Lakers to be able to truthfully say "nobody believes in us". Good luck to y'all on the season.
