Should the Lakers Be Dismissed?
No, the Los Angeles Lakers shouldn’t just be dismissed to acquire the 2019-20 NBA championship because they have their very own star duo that can match up with the Clippers at LeBron James and Anthony Davis. (Side note: How mad are Clippers-Lakers games likely to be next year?)
Can it really indicate the Lakers need to try now to win the title? Sure, but that will be easier said than done after sitting on their hands for most of free service whilst awaiting Kawhi Leonard’s decision.
The Lake Show’s supporting cast is really a dumpster fire in comparison to what the Staples Center roommates can put on the court and unless you will find more veteran buyouts to come on board to the purple and gold (ahem, Andre Iguodala), the truth is that even with LeBron and the Brow, they are just outgunned.
I wouldn’t touch them at +400 to win the name and I don’t feel bad for some of the suckers who took them in +185 with some sportsbooks when it had been projected that they were getting Kawhi too.
