Loss, but who cares...If we really wanted to win, we'd just play Lebron/AD at the end.

I just don't see enough shooting on this roster. Hope I'm wrong but that's my main takeaway thus far.

This is probably the last will see of Mac, Oliver, Ayayi, and Queen


You think Queen? The rest I don't know who they are so...


TQ has potential but he’s not better than Chaundee and Austin.

Plus with Rob bringing in Sekou.
Who I think could do well here.


I know Austin is on a regular contract and Sekou is a 2-way guy. What kind of contract is Chaundee on? Is he a 2-way-er?


Yikes just checkEd our salaries.
Not sure how it effects us cap wise if we cut these guys but Mac and Trevelin ain’t it.

Where do they fit in with Rondo, Nunn, THT and Malik........🤔🤔🤔

Its only pre-season, right?


I mean, sure, it's preseason...

but I doubt it gives anyone watching any confidence seeing the probable starting 5 of the lakers just hanging with mostly bench guys from the warriors...



The only confidence that matters is the players. The people watching have zero to do with winning and losing.

You heard it here first: Lakers will win no more than 35 games. This is a trash ass lottery team. Can't beat a warriors team without Steph (even though all our stars played 25+ minutes).



It’s post like this that really makes me question some people basketball intellect

My first gut instinct was that it would be better to have kept KCP, Alex, and gone with Buddy over Russ.

But I tried to think positive and that the team would be able to use sheer will to overcome the loss of shooting and defense.

I'm not going to lose hope until the regular season starts... but it just looks ugly right now.

Disagree with you, Roger. This is a better roster than last year. Need everyone to stay healthy and they all need time to play together.

Once again, though I don't want to irritate the folks here that are in panic mode, but I am not one of those....it's the preseason.....none of these games matter......Westbrook will be getting better.....the team will get more in sync as time goes on.....the lineups will solidify......we will be fine..

But, I don't think anyone can say last season's roster was better. I know some folks love the hell out of Caruso, and I get that....but this team is better than the team with Kuzman, KCP and Schroder .....
