I think their Division shakes out like this:

1-Boston (as long as Irving and Gordy are healthy)
2-Philly
3-Toronto
4-BK
5-NY

lol....why on God's green earth would I make that bet....would you have made that bet when LeBron came back to Cleveland and the Lakers were swimming in a half decade + worth of shit and incompetence?

While I do not think the Lakers will win a title in the "LeBron Era" I certainly believe there is a fairly significant non-zero chance they do pull it off. They have the best player in the world (currently at least) on their team.

I will GLADLY bet you the Lakers fail to make it out of the 2nd round this year, or win less than 53 games.

Just pointing out you only do bets when they are heavily skewed iin your favor.....

@Heatles84 knows what I am talking about.

I follow the team, not the city.

Was a fan in LA, Oakland, and will be in Vegas.
as a Browns fan- I would have NEVER EVER EVER in a million years rooted for the Ravens, but then again, the team did change it's name and colors.

I mean- don't you feel sickened and betrayed that your team just up and left for Vegas? I wouldn't root for them. Not in a million years. I'd rather rep a hometown team then a scumbag owner who moved for a few extra dollars.

I just offered to make a bet based on the Vegas odds....did i set those? lol.

52.5 is the over under I saw.

Lakers win 53 or more, you win

Lakers win 52 or less, I win.

5K v cash

the Dodgers could add Trout, Harper, Machado, etc....it won't matter until Kershaw pitches like he has some balls in the playoffs.

If I had to win a playoff game I take Corey Kluber all day, everyday without a second thought over Clayton Kershaw.

2-Philly
3-Toronto
4-BK
5-NY

Toronto won 59 games and improved their roster. I would have them basically in a dead heat with Boston as long as Kawhi doesn't pull another power play, with Philly in 3rd. All 3 pretty close together though.

You're fucking insane if you think I'd take that wager. If they added 2 max players, yes.....

They added 1 and a bunch of vets to a team that won 35 games. If I had to guess......if they are healthy, I'd say they win 48-50 games in a stacked WC.

Dodgers were just in the Series, Rams were a game short of the conf finals and got considerably better, Lakers on the climb. Better situation than Cleveland overall, lol.

Philly is improving and Leonard will be learning a new offense....and they have a brand new HC.
