Are the Lakers going to win as many games as they did last season?

At 31-41, they need to win 4 of their final 10 games to reach last season's record of 35-47. It's not looking very good for them to reach that plateau.

 

LA's remaining games:

Golden State, Portland, Utah (twice), at OKC, at LA Clippers, Sacramento, Charlotte, Washington, and at New Orleans. Maybe 2 or 3 wins? But not 4.

Wow. Their first two-game winning streak since mid-January when they still had a chance of making the playoffs at 25-21.

 

Of course they lost their next game at Houston in OT and their season completely derailed over the following weeks.

 

But things are starting to look up at 33-41, although a .500 season is probably too much to ask for. Maybe 35-47 is still within reach. :cool:

No way in hell he wants to hear "Lonzo led Lakers 35-47, LBJ led Lakers 34-48".

They won't have to worry about Lonzo next season, they will get rid of him after they sign Kyrie this summer to reunite him with LeBron.

Just like they should regret trading DLo.

 

Remember, the guy you said sucked and was a bust as a Laker who you know mock the Lakrrs for trading.

He was a bust as a Laker, but now that he's in Brooklyn it looks as if D'Angelo Russell has become an All-Star. What a strange coincidence.

 

And things are looking up for his former team now that they're 34-42. Who knows, next year they might even go 41-41! :tongue:

Lmao. This dude is never in the other sports forum and you come in here and preach some shit that only LBJ dick riders say?

 

Literally no one in this forum said that and for you to think Lakers fans think that when they dont even think hes better than Kobe is fucking hysterical.

 

Get lost.

Refer to my posts pre LBJ to the Lakers. I didnt want him because I knew he was a team killer. With that being said, 2020 will be different.

The best-case scenario for the Lakers is to give Butler a 4-year max contract and Boogie a 1 or 2 year deal in the $13M-$15M/season range.

 

Then they might win 45 games and finish in 7th or 8th place so one of the elite teams in the West will have a gentleman's sweep in round 1.

Idk why you're worried about LA right now anyway, yalls Finals is starting soon. 

Yep, it's tied 2-2 even though you thought it was over after game 2, but in your defense so did most everyone else. Now it's a best of 3 series.

Even if the Warriors re-sign Klay, he will be out at least until the AS break. And if KD stays too, he'll be out for most of the season (if not all).

 

So basically that leaves them with Curry, Green, Iggy, Looney, Livingston, Cook, McKinnie, Bell and whoever they get with their mini-MLE.

 

That means there's a strong possibility that the Lakers will win more games next season than the Warriors do. Probably not 50, but maybe 45? :cool:

It's absolutely hilarious how the Lakers are a 9/2 favorite to win a championship next year. Man, sports bettors are total fucking idiots!

 

The Bucks and Clippers are both 6/1, people seem to be under the impression that one of the LA teams is going to the WCF. What a joke.

 

Houston is currently at 8/1 with the fourth best odds, and the Warriors still have decent 14/1 odds just behind Boston and Philly at 12/1.

 

For some reason OKC still has the tenth best odds in the NBA at 16/1 which is almost as laughable as the Lakers having the best odds. :rolleyes:

Who would you say are teams with top 5 odds then? If sports bettors are idiots and you're the smart guy give us some insight on what the odds should be like?

I'd take LBJ, Kuz, and AD over HOUs big three. 

Let's see how they stack up against Harden, Westbrick, and Capela next season. I'll even take Houston's big five over what the Lakers have now.

 

Harden, Russ, Capela, Gordon, and Tucker match up extremely well against LBJ, AD, Kuzma, Green, and who else. Rondo? Bradley? KCP? McGee?
