Lakers would have a great season this time due to the LBJ addition in the line-up but it seems hard for them to make it to the finals because GSW is packed with superstars hungry for a title.
Warriors are not hungry for the title. It's just that they are composed of good role players and their strong chemistry that started to build years ago are now still in action. It's difficult to destroy even they will matched with a championship caliber team.

What we can expect is, Lakers surely will have a chance to finally end their absence in playoffs. People are not expecting that they will go into finals or even for a conference finals so not a big deal after all if they will not reached it.
I agree with this. In addition, their coach is also a good coach even in his first year. When he handled GSW, the team became a playoff contender team. They have good chemistry since they are playing for along time. That is what I want in Warriors. They don't change their players too much and if they will, they will trade their bench players and not their star players.

The Finals appearancr streak of LBJ will end now. I don't see Lakers playing in the NBA Finals now but they can clinch on the playoffs.

We don't know that yet. I have seen how Lebron have pushed the players when he is on one team.
Somehow there is something with Lebron that makes other players be good too or could be just looking good because of his presence.

He hates losing. So maybe there is a chance again to go to the Finals. I aint saying it will happen but with his ability he might just have a shot although their chemistry needs to improve first.
Its just my speculation but I know the capabilities of Lebron. He can carry his team with his experience. I think what the Lakers need to do is to have a good chemistry as you said and if they will play well in the upcoming season, they have a chance.

I can't wait for the season to start. I want to watch how the Lakers will play now. Never mind the Warriors because I know how they play already Cheesy.

I like Pre-seasons actually because I am a gambler and as a gambler, I notice that I have more chances to win in pre-season than in regular season.
Why? because it's a no bearing game and like what you said, superstars will most likely will not play to avoid injuries, I love to bet on the underdog and the over as there is less defense.

That's actually a pretty good strategy betting the over in pre-season or even the first couple of weeks of regular season. I remember last year Memphis had a close to 150 point game  Grin, it was early, not sure it was indeed pre-season.

One thing to have in mind is, superstars not playing will lead to other players (not so good) taking majority of the shots thus we will likely see worse FG% and higher number of turnovers.

I would also like to touch on one of the new rules, after an offensive rebound team will not get a full 24 seconds, from this season it will be 14 seconds. This will lead to more scoring opportunities and likely higher scoring games.
Okay, let's try that experiment in the coming games.
It will start very soon, so it's time to bet on high odds line or even parlay it with different games for better payout.
Winning x100 return is possible if you are so lucky. Cool

Can't wait for the Pre-Season games. A lot of changes in many good times. NBA Finals prediction? Raptors vs Warriors

I don't believe in Raptors. In my opinion Boston or Philadelphia vs GSW or Houston.

At least the finals would be different on the other end. Not a bad prediction though but likely said, prediction would be harder now unlike the past seasons where we can easily predict on who's going to make it at the finals. Greatest teams are going to face each other on Western Conference and it's a total clash and much more exciting than the Eastern. I'm not saying that East is boring but West matches are more interesting.

Unfortunately, looks like some of the superstars will not play on Pre-Season games.

NBA Finals prediction? It will be difficult to predict mate even how good analyzation will be. We have to consider that trades are opened until All-Star break next year so this trade happened off-season is just a start. And besides, there are still lots of veteran who are in free agency that still looking for their new team.

With Lebron James, I’d say that anything is possible, The Cavaliers team should never have made it to the Championship Finals but because of him alone, they did. Maybe he is the one to bring the Lakers to the finals again.

Lebron now have a pure point guard teammate Rajon Rondo unlike in Cavaliers last season so I think he will now have a not tiring game every game because he holds almost all position. Stephenson is a good role player too and known for his defense as we seen how he able to guard Lebron man to man last playoffs. Lakers doesn't have much of superstar players but a role players.

This veterans will surely give their young players a moral boost in every game. Playing with these veterans is like a dream to those young players.

Well even without lebron, the lakers have a very good chance of making the playoffs. I mean, their composotion of talented young guys, kuzma ingram and ball, who would likely all peak at the same time, is pretty potent. But of course throw in james and they're pretty much assured of a spot.

Talking about the "upcoming season" , Im seeing low chances that Lakers will take a spot at playoffs at their current roster. I doubt also that Rajon Rondo, Lance Stephensom and Javale McGee will come to Lakers if LeBron is not there. I believed there's an impact of LeBroin joining the Lakers why these veterans agree to Lakers deal.

If Lakers originally planned to sticked to their current roster , Im seeing they will have a sure spot at playoffs after or maybe 1 to 2 season. Competition on West is tough even they have those "talented players".

We don't know that yet. I have seen how Lebron have pushed the players when he is on one team.
Somehow there is something with Lebron that makes other players be good too or could be just looking good because of his presence.

He hates losing. So maybe there is a chance again to go to the Finals. I aint saying it will happen but with his ability he might just have a shot although their chemistry needs to improve first.


Yes we can't speculate that early. LeBron said in an interview back then after being landed to Lakers, that his always goal was to win. Surrounded by a new teammates this time, young and veteran role players, we can't just closed the curtain that LeBron will say goodbye to his final streak.

Exactly, if you surround yourself with winners like Bron, they sooner or later you will you will get attracted to that positive vibes that you will need to elevate your game.

Its really too early to call for the Lakers to go the Finals, chemistry will be a big factor. We are going to see in the first few games if their's one, otherwise we might see a whole season wherein the team keeps on adjusting until they found the right combinations.

Yeah.
Why do they keep on saying that.
Those are efforts and hardwork they have done. They are not edited from a game to get 99 per stat. Grin

GSW is not a team that is unbeatable and I know players from other teams knew that.
They are just composed and with discipline when in game and their eyes are always on the target, which is the Championship.

I think Warriors will be very motivated to defend their championship and win 3 in a row. We all know how hard it is to three-peat, last team to do it was the Lakers in early 2000s', that is almost 20 years ago; Heat had a decent chance in 14' but the best player in the world had to deal with leg cramps.  Cheesy

Another reason would be expiring contracts of Klay and Durant, this could be the last season they play together, so why not win again.

Don't forget that Warriors are moving to their new arena next season 2019-20, what better way to celebrate than winning 3rd in a row. If they stay healthy throughout the season and that Boogie thing work as expected, it might not translate as in 70+ regular season wins, but they could easily sweep through playoffs/finals.
It's careful analysis, thinking that they are up to the top and they want to defend their throne. For Golden State Warriors fans, they are raving and keeps on cheering. I think they are capable of doing that or even better, depending on the changes on their rosters. If their lineup is working, why shouldn't they change? (except strategies)

The warriors are not hungry but they are still in the mission to defend their ring and to remain champion.
One needs to leave the team in order to have a fair game in the NBA, they are full of superstars and Durant was too coward to join, he should step
out, GSW is still a good team even without him.
