    Media are really digging under the couch pillows for negatives on the Lakers.

    Despite what they say about our roster being new, lacking chemistry, and our misbegotten FO, a "new" team full of vets means little as they quickly develop. We have 6 guys returning including major players and they already have chemistry with an LBJ system, that's half the final roster so we aren't "new" anyways. AD, Cousins and Rondo played together in NO. AD and Rondo into the playoffs. Cook is tight with AD and LBJ. We no longer have a youthful core worried about being traded. No more mid-season romper-room tirades by FO leaks. Speaking of the FO no matter what anyone has to say about the FO, at least the current FO get along, have solidarity when it comes to S'ingTFU and a workable plan going forward for the foreseeable future.

    Just keep up the defensive intensity and we might be pretty good this year. And how nasty would this team be with Cousins? Sheesh!

    Hard to not get excited - I know it's pre-season, but we have the potential to be scary good.

    Danny Green and Bradley really didn't even play that well offensively - wait until they both get going.

    oh, and we still got that Kuzma guy too...

    AD's fit reminds me of when we first got Gasol and how well he fit in with Kobe immediately - literally fits like a glove playing next to LeBron.
