Leads the league. HE likes the new ball!
 
It’s so nice to see this Laker team implode. Lebron needs current all stars to win not washed up ones. They will be lucky to make the playoffs. Roster is flawed big time.

They will finish ahead of us in the standings

That doesn’t say much when they’re supposed to be the 2nd favorite for the title and we are 14th.

It does when the majority of this forum said they suck and are old and won’t make the playoffs…… which is all currently true, yet think we’ll win 55 games this season. All I’ve said since preseason is they’ll finish ahead of us, that’s all.

I thought you have continuously said that we will only win 41 games this season.

I would think they would finish ahead of us since they have 3 max players, one of whom is supposed to be the GOAT. However I doubt it, the 50 mil dollar Phony GOAT will play 50 games and they will limp into the playoffs lacking any chemistry. RW is a big time playoff loser, Davis is made of something more brittle than glass, and Lebron is 36 and it’s showing. They gave away Ball and Randall for this putrid squad of has beens.

Tell all your well researched facts to this place. They’re the ones who said they suck and are old and we are destined for HCA.
Once again. All I said was the Lakers would finish ahead of our Blazers.
 
Here is a fun fact.
Both the Suns and Warriors have played 17 games.
The Suns are currently riding a 13 game win streak.
The Warriors are still one full game ahead of them in the standings.

You also predicted that the Westbrick trade was a great one - wrong so far.
You also said we'd finish .500 - wrong so far.
You also said to wait 30 games - this is correct, but now you're not waiting?



Here's MY prediction: Lakers will have to play in the play-in. Blazer's won't have to because they'll be in the top 6.

Fair enough. But they can finish ahead of us and suck more than us relative to their expectations.

Personally when I say the Lakers suck, it’s relative to their expectations. For a team that is supposedly supposed to win the championship, they suck.

As opposed to say, the Cleveland Cavaliers who are currently .500 but people say they’re doing really well.

Expectations matter.
 
What has been up with Peyton Pritchard this year? His stats are way down. I wonder if he needs a change of scenery.

Will the Lakers finish ahead of the Warriors and Suns?

Related question: Will the Lakers be in this season's NBA Finals?
 
when I say "the Lakers suck" I'm always thinking of their fans as much as the team

Dyan Cannon did look pretty good in the 70's though

No sir, I’m waiting 30 games for sure. This team really took care of business on this homestand. Looked good in some stretches. I still do believe with this roster, we are a .500 team. And as far as the Lake Show… they have looked bad. They have taken longer than I thought to gel. Still believe they will finish ahead of us in the standings in spite of the hate on here.

I’ll bet you something that we finish with a better record than the Lakers. That team is extremely flawed and Anthony Davis hasn’t had his season ending made of glass injury yet.

They gave up all their glue guys for a weak ass Westbrook.

They done. Book it, Danno
 
Lebron James, Russell Westbrook and Carmelo Anthony playing a game against the Pacers and Vegas has them as 6.5 point underdog

lol
