Predict how many wins the lakers get this season

[Alamо]

Over/under 25?

[CarlosBoozer]

Over 25, they could definitely win 26 games with their current roster.

[Jameerthefear]

around 30ish games imo

[senelcoolidge]

Over 25. Around 30 wins. Kobe may last half the season..so that's 41 games..yeah.

[StephHamann]

32

[MMM]

high 30's is probably their max wins output, so i'll say 35 wins

[Quickening]

If Kobe plays majority of the season around 15 wins... if he misses a lot, around 25.

[midatlantic09]

35

[G0ATbe]

45-50.

[AirTupac]

55

[West-Side]

57 over the next 2 seasons.

[GIF REACTION]

21

Terrible team.

[Lebronxrings]

kobe guaranteed playoffs with no excuses so.... at least 50.

[Sakkreth]

With Kobe playing a lot ~23, without Kobe ~28.

[UK2K]

28-32

[toxicxr6]

The more love plays the less this team will win.. That is an absolute guarantee.. At this stage of his career he might possibly have the worst game impact for his own team.. More than anyone in the entire league.. His ruthless chucking and embarrassing defence will guarantee a lottery pick for the lakers again. Honestly best thing for the lakers is Kobe goes down injured and quickly.

If Kobe plays 60+ games lakers will win 20-25 games absolute maximum
If Kobe played 20 games or less lakers could win maximum 35 games...

Under no circumstance is this roster winning more than 35 games in the west.. Not a damn chance

[Human Error]

23 wins. Kobe will average 22 points on 36% shooting from the field and make the all star team as fan vote.

Well at least you live up to your username.

[pastis]

thats not easy. it all depends on kobes health and how laker prospects are gonna to develop.

if kobe stays healthy and trust more his teamm8s and is not chucking wild shots, i predict kobe to a 25ppg on 44%.

If russel etc. will make some little breakthrough i see the lakers making between 35-45.

[West-Side]

Worst case scenario: 22-25 wins

- Russell needs more time, turnover prone.
- Randle plays inconsistent.
- Hibbert still resembling a garbage can.
- Kobe plays selfish ball

Best case scenario: 42-50 wins

- Russell is a ROTY candidate
- Randle becomes a reliable low-post threat
- Hibbert has one of the highest defensive efficiency in the league
- Kobe plays smart, shares the ball and is relatively injury free
- Lou Williams, Clarkson & Young bring instant offense off the bench

You mock another poster for predicting 23 wins then admit yourself it's possible?

Then make a far more absurd prediction that the lakers may win as many as 50 games? :wtf:

They have zero shot at 50. No chance in hell.

[And1AllDay]

Over/under 25?

Over 25 easily. Should've set the over under at 35 to make it a little more difficult. I'd still say over 35 though.

[KNOW1EDGE]

Right around 30. No more than 35. No less than 28.

I would be very impressed if they won 40+ games this season.

[And1AllDay]

Best case scenario: 42-50 wins


There is no best case where the Lakers win 50 games next season. Unless you're weirdly assuming that half the league is going to be injured...

[MP.Trey]

30 if healthy, 20 if Kobe gets hurt early again this season.
