The Los Angeles Lakers have a lot of questions to answer this offseason, and it doesn’t look like they have the right ones. The Purple and Gold are trying to find light at the end of the tunnel after a terrible 2021/22 NBA season where they couldn’t even make it to the play-in tournament.
Much has been made of Russell Westbrook’s inability to adapt to the team, while LeBron James and Anthony Davis have also been criticized for pushing for the trade. However, all the bad comments won’t bring any change unless the front office takes a big step to rekindle their hopes of being suitors.
With Darvin Ham as the new head coach, the Lakers might have a shot at being competitive again, but not everyone is convinced. After The Athletic’s Jovan Buha predicted the team’s closing roster, Redditor “Beast_Mode1265” shared it with the rest of the fans, and they were extremely disappointed to see what kind of team the Lakers would have in the future. fencing.

Austin Reaves, Troy Brown Jr., LeBron James, Juan Toscano-Anderson and Anthony Davis seem like a solid roster, but not everyone shares that sentiment, with most fans showing pessimism about this upcoming NBA season.
With all due respect, that’s a**
Dear Lord,
Please keep Lebron and AD healthy this season.
Amen.
Even then, that might not be enough. It’s a bad composition anyway. We need a trade.
Dear Lord,
If 2 picks get Kyrie then please do it bby
Even if they play all 82, the most this team can hope for is Play In and a gentlemanly sweep in the 1st round.
I think without the current roster now, like I thought last season. If we made the play-in/play-off, lebron and AD could take us further than many think. The hardest part is making the playoffs to start with because they can’t go strong enough to carry like that for more than 50 games.
This is a lottery team
It would be worse than last year
4/5 of the lineup is Klutch. I’ll just leave it at that
Lebron + Ad + role players are what the Lakers need. I don’t understand the hate for that.
This programming sent my mental state spiraling down the toilet.
We would be competing with the South Bay Lakers
There’s no way Kendrick Nunn isn’t in the closing lineup
7-75
damn we’re done
I didn’t think it could be worse than last year
The Lakers need to make some changes this offseason. Few in the league think they can even make it past the first round of the playoffs with their current roster, and given how bad their final roster looks, it could be even worse.
We have to sit back and wait for what the Lakers will do. They have been linked with a move for Kyrie Irving, but so far nothing has happened. They went from a champion team to a struggling team, and now it’s very difficult to turn things around.
