It seems likely the Lakers will either do one of two things if not both, but #1 would be trying to get a max free agent or two like Durant, Horford, Whiteside, or DeRozan although none of those seem realistic at this time. If we strike out there it's not unreasonable to expect us to try and fill out the roster with solid veterans like Deng, Noah, Dudley, maybe re-signing Bass. I would say if we do the latter along with the obvious upgrade going from Byron to Luke along with what should be grown and development I think 34 wins is a reasonable expectation. What do you guys think? If we took Bender I figure it would be around 25 or so because obviously he's the less NBA ready of the three.
Just about 7.5 hours away from the start. Keep in mind the draft lottery nearly always starts about 15 minutes after 7 pm. Either way this should be a tension filled day for the Lakers and us fans.
