Wood and Vando starting the season off injured sucks. But otherwise at least the Lakers are better covered this time around. Hopefully Dalton is ready to pull a Marquez and Vincent is ready to earn his check. I really hope the new big is at least rotational level.

The gm sat on his ass and made zero moves. Why should we the fans care? When the man getting paid millions doesn't.
It's kinda crazy. last season was AD's healthiest season and it was a failure and we were swept in the first round. The fact that NO moves were made is unheard of.

I'll maintain that baseline competence from the head coach will improve the team. Ham was that bad. They never developed a rhythm last season because that bozo was constantly fukking with the lineups and rotations.

Redikk just being a mediocre coach probably adds five wins to their total alone.

I hope so. Playing our best lineup from game 1 should help.

As long as AD and Bron stay relatively healthy I actually agree

Like I've been saying, baseline competency adds at least five wins to this team. They'll be in better position to trade at the deadline by knowing what they actually have instead of a bozo coach juggling lineups every week.
I'm happy the starters are set. I'm more concerned about the bench, it is ROUGH. TP was so solid off the bench last year when he wasn't playing starter minutes. Max is gonna have to make a leap and Gabe Vincent is gonna need to be decent and actually play. We are actually gonna be depending on Hayes to play a big role too because we are thin at backup for the front court too.

They need a streaky scorer off the bench. Brooklyn is gonna be tanking heavy. If they swung a deal for Cam Johnson with Cam Thomas, I wouldn't be mad. DLo and Gabe for those two works financially and gets Brooklyn off Johnson's contract.
