Lakers fans: How far we going?

[SwayDizzle]

I'm excited about this new team we have. How far are we going this season? Regular season and playoffs?

[G0ATbe]

Honestly we can win a championship this year. Fresh legged,rested, motivated Kobe. New role players, and a rookie thatll probably be better than Gasoft.

If you only want Lakers fans, post on the Lakers board.

Lotto this year for the Lakers most likely

[AnaheimLakers24]

6-8 seed hopefully

knock out boring ass spurs

[KG215]

35-45 wins (depending on health) and no playoffs. If everyone stays healthy most of the year, I could see them finishing with around 45 wins. But if Kobe doesn't stay healthy, or if he's nowhere near the player he was before the injuries, then 35ish wins is most likely.

7 or 8 and a first round exit.

Shame on the rest of you

We need another major piece to be relevant IMO.

Excited for the new season though for sure.

[hawksdogsbraves]

Who on this team is an above average player for their position outside of Kobe?

[gts]

Don't have a clue but I think better than some of the naysayers are predicting... Im excited for it, not expecting anything earth shattering in the midst of a rebuild but should be fun to watch

Problem is with this team the two guys they need to be at their best all season are the two who are coming off significant injuries

[Human Error]

Vegas(which has been the most accurate among all projections) has them winning 31.5 games. Good luck finding a gem in the lottery!

We don't have a 1st round pick for next year. Gave it up for Lin I believe.

[TheMarkMadsen]

Hopefully we can get rid of Lin's useless ass, Ronnie Price is getting the endorsement from Kobe, Nash & Clarkson would be good back ups..

[Brokenbeat]

No playoffs.

I think the only teams in the west that are actually worse than the Lakers are the Jazz, Wolves, and maybe the Kings (Utah/Minnesota due to being so young). Phoenix, Denver, and the Pelicans actually got better in the offseason. Lakers did too, but they're still not a playoff team. Barring a massive midseason trade - I don't see that changing.

It's going to be a bloodbath for that 8th spot again.

we got a 1st rd pick for taking Lin. The Lakers actual pick is with PHX and is top 5 protected. so LA would have to be worse than last season to have a chance to get it back
