No, the Los Angeles Lakers should not just be dismissed to win the 2019-20 NBA championship since they have their own star duo that may match up with the Clippers in LeBron James and Anthony Davis. (Side note: How insane are Clippers-Lakers games going to be next season?)
Will it actually mean that the Lakers need to try now to acquire the title? Sure, but this will be easier said than done sitting on their hands for most of free agency whilst anticipating Kawhi Leonard’s choice.
The Lake Show’s supporting cast is really a dumpster fire compared to what their Staples Center roommates can put on the court and unless you will find far 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 simply outgunned.
I wouldn’t touch them right now at +400 to win the title and I really don’t feel bad for some of those suckers who took them at +185 with some sportsbooks if it was projected that they were becoming Kawhi too.
