Underrated hire here. Seems like JJ's staff is a good blend of both highly experienced coaches and young up and coming coaches. I don't expect much this season but in terms of player development, I think there will be a big shift for the future.

Rookie coach. Rookie female assistant. Bronny shooting O-fers. LBJ hitting 40. Going to be a memorable season in LA.

Everything is predicated on expectations. What were you expecting? #1 seed or 6th seed or the play in tourney.

To me, the #6 is the upper limit.
