Lakers have no shot at winning a title this year

[Mavsmalt]

O strongly disagree with your take. I believe that they will not win the 2021 championship but they certainly have a shot to win it with AD on the court. They are expressing interest on barely every player that is in the market. If they could acquire andre drummond or a strong wing like buddy hield.

Especially with Wes Matthews being a giant poosy and KCP going back to pre-2020 KCP, Gasol's slow ass and Bron notably declining.

"Bron notably declining" is your MVP though.

MVP LeBron with the no. 1 rated defense is a legitimate contender.

Embiid is the MVP.

Embiid is the MVP.

Dude is out for weeks. So nope. It's LeBron.

Nah, it's too early to say that. As long as AD and Bran are healthy, there is always a shot.

I do think this is a worse team than the bubble Lakers. Schroder sucks and I don't trust him in a playoff series but maybe he'll get hot at the right time, who knows. Kuzma still sucks. Wes Matthews also sucks like I predicted. Harrell has been great overall but he was great last year and disappeared in the playoffs so the bench is extremely worrisome compared to last year when he had Rondo the run the show along with a Dwight who knew his role.

Regardless, Bran and AD are going to be a tough out in a 7 game series for any team. Don't underestimate greatness in the playoffs.

brooklyn, clippers and phila >>>

lebron is an underdog yet again. he better hope davis comes back and produces at a respectable, #2 level. the lakers were lucky he was healthy most of last season. rumblings are he's coming back in a few weeks though which is good news.

You don't want that action over here in BK.

You probably live in Queens or something.

What do you have against Queens? all of a sudden you rep BK now that Harden is there

[LeCramp]

Probably cause Marcus Morris plays for the Clippers.

Bro calm down bro you and Lebron23 both work at Jollibee....calm down and keep flipping them burgers

None of those teams can beat the Lakers in the playoffs. Especially not Philadelphia.

[bullettooth]

Of course they have a shot, they have A.D... dude took a scrub team that couldn't even make the playoffs to winning the championship. Dude is a legend.

Remember when Lakers fans thought Gasol was still good?
