The Lakers are in town tonight with another head coach. Former Golden State assistant Luke Walton now has the task of rebuilding the Lakers to some level of respectability. It’s always about players. First rule of coaching…Players Make the Coach. Lakers should once again finish near the bottom of the West and will stay there until they bring in a free agent like say Russell Westbrook who can change the current culture of losing.
But then again all the talking heads were sure Durant and Westbrook were going to the Lakers together after this season–and of course we all saw how that went. Duke rookie Brandon Ingram should be fun to watch along with some other young Lakers. OKC isn’t good enough to take anything for granted so it should be a fun game as most of the games should be this season.
