How many wins will the Lakers have this season?

Just list your number. This could be subject to change because it's only late July but my early prediction is 30. 30 is pretty generous but not my usual over the top generosity where I have been predicting around .500 seasons over the past 3 seasons. We have a lot of young players with Good to Great potential in Russell, Ingram, Clarkson, Randle, Nance, and Zubac + potentially a Great Coach in Luke. I don't think 30 is unreasonable, that is a 13 game improvement so it will still take a lot of things going our way to reach 30 but for now my number is 30 = 30-52.

25 is a lot for this young core.


Mosgov and Deng are moreso role players from THAT conference.

I think 29.5 is a perfect over/under. I will say 30 and pray :roflmao:

Call me crazy but I'll say 32 in honor of Earvin "Magic" Johnson

With Deng and Mozgov assisting the youngsters, and with Russell's confidence sky high (under Cool Hand Luke instead of Nazi Byron), I expect to see this mystery team find itself over the course of the first 25-30 games then play with focus and consistency from then on. It would be unrealistic to think we could surpass 30 wins unless we shock the NBA and ourselves. Anything's possible, but I'll stick with 27 - a ten-win improvement over last year.

I think 32 is their ceiling, 27 is probably the right projection. I will go 30 for the hell of it. I always do this but at least this time I have a chance to be right :waaaaa: Watch us go 41-41 now :roflmao:

I always love your positive outlook Nuggs. If we win 30 and show improvement I will still be happy. It may take 2 or 3 years before we make the Playoffs but it is what it is as Kobe would say. I have accepted it and will still roll with the patience attitude. Now if we fucking go 20-62 I wont be thrilled about that though!!
