[Smith] As of now, the only roster changes for the Los Angeles Lakers from the 2023-24 season to the 2024-25 season: IN Bronny James Dalton Knecht OUT Spencer Dinwiddie Taurean Prince

Can still make trades but I’m sure they wanna wait for the right one or one that doesn’t hamstring us(maybe they are learning from the Westbrook fiasco).

If Vando and Gabe can get healthy, I think that makes the roster better than this past season. Dinwiddie didn’t provide a whole lot. Prince doesn’t defend well enough. Really need the defensive presence of Vando and Gabe next season. It gives the coaching staff options in the rotation. That’s without mentioning growth from Christie, Lewis, or JHS.

So we’re worse

If this is it, our only hope is we get a healthy Vando and Gabe, more Max and Bron + AD play as is as last year and healthy as well.
Then do some trades before the deadline.

Hopefully we can find a team to take cam for some second rounders and we can resign prince

Ridiculous. Joke of a franchise

Losing Taurean is a bit of an L. He’s a really solid role player, Ham was simply using him as a 40 min per game guy when he’s not.
Pluckt007
Jeanie’s team sucks
LakerDoc
And expect the same results. Play in tournament IF they can stay healthy somehow like last season. Otherwise will miss the playoffs all together
los33ramos
You stupid ass laker fans. Y’all don’t know how it’s like to suffer. We still have lebron and AD. Now if we didn’t have those two, we would be well who knows but y’all don’t know how to suffer.
Go lakers!

a part of me feels like we’re gonna do much better with basically the same roster cuz of having JJ. Copium or..

Hinging hopes on a healthy former Heat role player and Vando, I’ve got a nice unicorn by the water to sell you

The lakers are losing their only consistent bench scorer in Taurean Prince for….Bronny James 🤡🤡🤡

Taurean is better than both the new guys so it’s a worse roster

I can see us locking in either seeds #6-10 with our current roster. Not bad, but I’m hoping we do make a trade at the deadline, or prior, to push us over the edge to hopefully not be in the play-in this year. But I can totally see us being in the play-in again. :/

We were very lucky to have a healthy Lebron and AD for most of the season last year. Hard to imagine that will happen again this season, so I think we all need to manage our expectations a bit. This team will likely struggle to make the playin. Most of the competition in the West is still very strong. Clippers are a little worse but Memphis, Rockets and San Antonio are going to be better. TBD on the Warriors

so we’re objectively worse than last year.

Yikes no wonder klay and other free agents don’t want to join this clown show.

Don’t discredit continuity as a positive

They will make moves. It’s a long offseason. The teams that have made big moves had cap space, had assets, or lost someone on a big contract and had more flexibility. Plenty of time.

so play-in here we come!

Dinwiddie is addition through subtraction, but losing Prince is a bit of a blow. He produced great after he became a 6th man, he was our ONLY offense for 3 games that Denver series
GoodGuyGodzilla
Does anyone have an update on Dinwiddle, I thought he was pretty solid on the few games he got minutes
