That could be the best scenario, all of them being healthy throughout the season to see the full potential of the team with Bron, Davis and Westbrook. If chances are Davis gets injured again, then they will be again in a difficult situation because Bron and Westbrook will have to carry the team on this shoulder.
That's what I'm looking forward to, Lebron, AD, and Westbrook playing the whole season. Westbrook played 55 times with Lebron - 17 PPG, 7.2 RPG, 6.7 assists Westbrook played 39 times with Davis - 18.8 PPG, 7.4 RPG, 7.8 assists His stats last season are pretty good while playing alongside Bron and AD. What's the other problem? Maybe bench players and supporting roles, especially during the times that Bron and AD are not playing and Westbrook becomes the main guy. Too much expectation for someone who already passed on his prime, I guess ![Roll Eyes](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/rolleyes.gif) but the numbers state it all. If the new coach got something that will jive the 3 main stars and, together with all the role players that they've signed, the winning chances Lakers are still good. Imagine a Healthy Davis who we knew how dominant both inside and outside, while both LeBron and Westbrook can drive inside and attract the defense. Either they'll take the shot and collect a foul or they can drop the ball to someone who has a better look at the basket. Well, Darvin Ham said that he has something he wanted to do to these 3 main stars and that might be the key to win the championship title again, another high expectation again but let's see what this new head coach can do for the current roster and give Westbrook a chance to earn his name again. Chances are low for the Lakers for sure but we never know what will happen soon once the season starts, and as long as AD manages to avoid some serious injuries, the Lakers will be running smooth.

If we based it in their recent performance, having Westbrook in the line-up won't definitely help them and might be best if they will acquire another point guard that is much more reliable. But it seems that Darvin Ham has another game plan if the Westbrook remains in the team, and that's what I wanted to see because the Lakers should just accept their defeat when they acquire Westbrook and just give the man his chance as this will be his last season based on his contract.
Westbrook is not only the reason why the Lakers failed last season. Almost all of them are the reason, from coach, players, and their bench. There are times that Westbrook is ending up with good stats in that game but it doesn't recognized. The injuries of their main players are also one of the reasons. We can only see if Westbrook is really a problem if he will able to play with Lebron James and Anthony Davis in a complete game in a whole season. Westbrook played 78 games last season and he was part of the starting lineup in that 78 games. He is more healthy than Anthony Davis that even consistent in good numbers, that was all useless as he was always injured a becomes a soft big guy. Yep, not only Westbrook is to blame there, but also those players who can't keep themselves healthy all throughout the season. Frank Vogel failed to execute a good rotation to their current roster last season. Some players deserves more minutes than the others, but Vogel always failed with his experiment. Westbrook had put a good numbers though, but he lacks the winning mentality or the mamba mentality. As usual, he's always down to have a good stats every game than winning the game. And to be fair with WB, Lakers did get a lot of old and veteran players like Carmelo and others that did nothing wrong. Dwight Howard was yes, experience but he had good numbers but Vogel bench him. And I do agree that Vogel even though being criticized as well, did nothing to the rotation and didn't adjust even if they have a string of losses already. So there are a lot of reasons on their side in the beginning but they failed to react to it. Not sure about the real score with that last season run, but I guess you are right with the selections of veterans players who are playing alongside with Westbrook, while Davis and LeBron do have injuries Westbrook act as the main guy of this team, but competitions are no longer the same way back with OKC. There are more improve teams that really stand out and dominate the starless Lakers.

There is no way all 3 play together for too many games. Lebron will be constrained on minutes, AD can't stay on the court and Westbrook is getting older now too. Max I can see all 3 playing together is ~20 games this year. Hope I'm wrong because the league is always better when Lakers are relevent.

Yeah you will right that mate if these three guys will played together then they will be getting stronger and stronger because we all know that these three players already built their chemistry and for sure with a hold teamwork and effort they can carry their team. And also even if Westbrook getting older but his strategy and some moves is always there so without a doubt this season will be the best for this three stars.

An update regarding the Sarver incident. https://www.espn.com/nba/story/_/id/34600876/phoenix-suns-minority-owner-jahm-najafi-calls-robert-sarver-resignationPhoenix Suns vice chairman and minority owner Jahm Najafi, the team's second-largest stakeholder, called for majority owner Robert Sarver's resignation in an open letter to team employees released on Thursday night, saying there should be "zero tolerance'' for lewd, misogynistic and racist conduct in any workplace. So that's how they punish their majority owner. NBA should learn from this. A ban and $10 million fine is not enough, and what's worst is they just punished him with just 1 year so next year he can do it again. He should step down. That's the right thing like what Jahm said in his open letter. Just imagine how awkward it will be when he goes back and does these things again in the shadows.

Probably a majority of the employees won't want to work with him in any capacity. He should sell the team ASAP if he has any sense. Having him as an owner going forward will hurt the team's ability to sign free agents and keep their stars. I promise you that none of the Suns players want their paychecks signed by some racist asshole. Is it the NBA's job to make sure their owners are good people? No. In free markets the Suns would suffer as a result of this discovery by loss of talent and value. I applaud Adam Silver for this approach, and hope the players/employees/owners of the Suns continue this push to not stand for this. Everyone knows Sarver doesn't deserve to be an NBA team owner at this point, but removing him the right way should be the goal now and it seems like that's happening.

I go with Jahm here, if Sarver is only suspended his influence still exist unlike if he stepdown even he still has some influence but the majority will be on the person who will replace him in power. NBA should force this one and not to allow any kind of this misconduct around the league. It's been around social medias and national news it might take serious action and NBA might review the sanction that they've given to Sun's team owner.

Too premature to say that the Lakers will be having that outcome or at least the same results they got last season, the season hasn't started yet and we might see some changes in their roster in the next few days.
I think you're probably right that a big change is coming for them in the near future. Russell Westbrook just put his multimillion-dollar Los Angeles home up for sale, so he's expecting to need to find a new place to live in the near future. I would think that you wouldn't put your home up for sale unless you knew that a change in scenery was imminent, which leads me to believe in spite of all the friendly talk, Pat Beverly and Russell Westbrook won't be playing on the same team. I'm even starting to wonder if picking up Pat Bev was a way to help nudge Russell towards a buyout. That too might be just a pure coincidence, we don't really know for sure. It might be best to sit for a while and wait for the upcoming changes because finding a new home for Westbrook might take a long time especially now that the season is about to start, so the other teams in the league are already busy preparing for it. But if he won't be traded then we will see Pat Bev and Westbrook playing along side like what coach Darvin said.

Vogel had to because their rotation was limited, and it doesn't look any better right now neither. They do not have too many talented players left, they preferred to have 3 stars and 3-4 other role players, over 2 stars and 5 great players to help them, they had such a good roster on the year they became champions, it was Lebron and AD that brought the trophy and maybe they would fail to do it again if they tried, but they decided to send so many playerz and instead got one more superstar who turns out he isn't even a superstar anymore. That's going to be their real trouble and I do not think that it would really become an issue in the long run when Westbrooks contract is over.

We also saw how Howard got small minutes lately when he can still help the team by any means if he can get enough minutes, instead he is just averaging 10 mins. It's just that Lakers and the people put a heavy load on Westbrook's shoulders and expect him to reach that high standards without giving him some time to adjust from being a role player to just a supporter.

I can't say I really understand the difference either. I guess maybe because Sterling was caught on tape? Who knows... I haven't had time to review the report yet, but it sounds like more of the Sterling nonsense like you said. I did see something at a glance about inappropriate touching to male employees? It seems like Sarver has some issues that aren't just rooted in racism. I hope he is left with a sour taste in his mouth and explores selling the team. As a businessman, he's got to see that the value is at an all time high and headed lower as this recession takes hold. He should do everyone a favor, including himself, and sell the team.
I really think the issue is the same as well, so if Sterling got the punishment for doing something similar then Sarver should have the same punishment, and for something like this it could surely draw some attention so he would need to wait in hiding before everyone I think even the Players of the Suns is not safe from his Racism, and like I always say a racist deep in their hearts will always be racist even though he hides it outside, but to change this kind of attitude is through psychological healing, I read this article yesterday and thought they were hard for him to ask $10 million for just saying racist words. I guess they do this kind of stuff nowadays to further stop the racism in the US and you might get yourself in trouble when you say those words no manner what you are thinking. When they say this is really nothing to him then I won't be saying much because rich people sometimes really don't know where to spend their money anymore and though this is some kind of over penalty, it is really good if it will be donated to some foundations that are really in need of it.
Well, there are tons of reports that Racism is now common in the USA which is why they are showing to the public that there are laws for this matter and they are showing some to the public by having punishments to the culprit, so anymore act of racism they will think on second thought, in doing it, I think the NBA is showing that they are not in favor with these kinds of things or activities that they are willing to give punishments whether they see something like this, in their company, Which is your correct that the fine or penalty money should be donated in some NGO kind of foundation for abused people that is a victim of racism or on a cancer health organization, but I guess the government have already thought of that, Well, good thing is that he still have 1 more chance left before his card will burn, that 1 bad season he had is already enough for him to believe that he is not the main alpha in the team anymore and he needed to adapt as a supporting role because that's what the Lakers wanted from him.
He needs to duplicate what Carmelo did if he still wanted to play in the NBA because sooner or later, he will retire too just like the other players in the free agency.
Well, I don't really like Russell Westbrook in the 1st place but seeing a stubborn player getting out of the NBA even though he doesn't want to ultimately saddens me, that is why I want him to realize that he is not needed anymore by the team, he needs to adapt to the system and let capable players do his job if he can do that and if he can stay on the Lakers this season the management might think of something to extend his contract, I really don't want Russ to be Russ anymore but to be the best player he could be, and adding a defensive kind of style on his play I think he can fit the bill to the Lakers and for Carmelo Anthony that really loves to play the sports salute for him, I never realize that a selfish player like him would think of switching his style of play,

If it's really the coach that is the problem, then we can assume that Westbrook will be back with great stats this new season.

That seems not a good analysis. There are 17 players on the Lakers roster last season of which may be around 10-12 were actively used. Do you mean that it's only Westbrook who didn't perform well because he can't follow the Lakers' system? Other Lakers players are so lucky that even though some of them are much worst than Westbrook last season, they are being saved from criticism. ![Smiley](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/smiley.gif)

An update regarding the Sarver incident. https://www.espn.com/nba/story/_/id/34600876/phoenix-suns-minority-owner-jahm-najafi-calls-robert-sarver-resignationPhoenix Suns vice chairman and minority owner Jahm Najafi, the team's second-largest stakeholder, called for majority owner Robert Sarver's resignation in an open letter to team employees released on Thursday night, saying there should be "zero tolerance'' for lewd, misogynistic and racist conduct in any workplace. So that's how they punish their majority owner. NBA should learn from this. A ban and $10 million fine is not enough, and what's worst is they just punished him with just 1 year so next year he can do it again. He should step down. That's the right thing like what Jahm said in his open letter. Just imagine how awkward it will be when he goes back and does these things again in the shadows. I doubt it would just be awkward. Probably a majority of the employees won't want to work with him in any capacity. He should sell the team ASAP if he has any sense. Having him as an owner going forward will hurt the team's ability to sign free agents and keep their stars. I promise you that none of the Suns players want their paychecks signed by some racist asshole. I agree, I don't see any awkwardness, the report has been released Robert acknowledge his mistakes. And perhaps, those black employees for sure will want to distant themselves with their boss now. CP3 has spoken and for sure the whole Phoenix Suns, regardless of their color doesn't want to work this him anymore. Is it the NBA's job to make sure their owners are good people? No. In free markets the Suns would suffer as a result of this discovery by loss of talent and value. I applaud Adam Silver for this approach, and hope the players/employees/owners of the Suns continue this push to not stand for this. Everyone knows Sarver doesn't deserve to be an NBA team owner at this point, but removing him the right way should be the goal now and it seems like that's happening.
But they shouldn't tolerate it, this is just like a slap on the wrist. And as much as we applaud Adam Silver, the punishment is not enough. For sure Suns management will be affected by this issues, the players themselves and may want to owner to be removed completely. There could be a movement inside the NBA right now that is pushing for this one.

But as the eye centers on Westbrook, it's because he's a star player and expectations to him are way up the highest than of those other players on the roster of the Lakers. The coaching staff? I don't think that there's anything to do with it, well if there is then that's very minimal and little to be considered. Otherwise, they really have to rotate and make decisions wisely for this upcoming season in almost everything where they've fell apart.

Because of the system of the Lakers, it was Westbrook who resulted not perform well, people based his previous stats and the current stats with the Lakers and they saw a big drop, so it's normal for them to think that Westbrook is not fit with the Lakers. If it's really the coach that is the problem, then we can assume that Westbrook will be back with great stats this new season.
That seems not a good analysis. There are 17 players on the Lakers roster last season of which may be around 10-12 were actively used. Do you mean that it's only Westbrook who didn't perform well because he can't follow the Lakers' system? Other Lakers players are so lucky that even though some of them are much worst than Westbrook last season, they are being saved from criticism. ![Smiley](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/smiley.gif) I agree that it shouldn't be the eye only to him but also to the others as well. But as the eye centers on Westbrook, it's because he's a star player and expectations to him are way up the highest than of those other players on the roster of the Lakers. The coaching staff? I don't think that there's anything to do with it, well if there is then that's very minimal and little to be considered. Otherwise, they really have to rotate and make decisions wisely for this upcoming season in almost everything where they've fell apart. It definitely shouldn't fall only on Westbrook, he's just the biggest problem that is fixable. Anthony Davis' knees are arguably the biggest overall problem. If AD was healthy all season, they wouldn't have even needed Russ to make the playoffs... The coaching staff deserves some of the blame as well. Benching Westbrook at key points in close games isn't something you do to a superstar. It had to have shaken his confidence and opened him up to unnecessary criticism. Maybe AD will be healthy and the new coach will give Russ some confidence to be his old self again. Going into a contract year, he definitely has the motivation for a revenge season.

But as the eye centers on Westbrook, it's because he's a star player and expectations to him are way up the highest than of those other players on the roster of the Lakers. It's haters. They are not looking for Westbrook as a star player when he was signed by the Los Angeles Lakers but rather they just simply don't like Westbrook. Before the Lakers, Westbrook already played for the Houston Rockets and Washington Wizards but if you noticed, there is not much criticism he received playing for those teams. When he goes to LA, Lebron haters think that it will be a boost for Lebron that's why they criticize Westbrook too every time he has the worst performance. Not just that, the Lakers do really have many haters even during Kobe was still there. Now that Lebron is also there, which also has lots of haters, and Westbrook is also there, which is known for stat-padding, those haters are just waiting for any Lakers' mistakes then they will use it as trash talk.

"The Los Angeles Lakers added depth at point guard on Friday by signing veteran Dennis Schroder to a one-year, $2.64 million deal, according to The Athletic and Stadium's Shams Charania." https://syndication.bleacherreport.com/amp/10049221-lakers-updated-roster-rotation-after-reported-dennis-schroder-contract.amp.htmlLooks like the Lakers are into Guards these days and it was stated in this report that even if they add more role players, that wouldn't mean much if their main players will not be healthy like James and Davis. Schroder's performance in the Eurobasket and last season with the Rockets was spectacular and I think signing him is a good addition to take Westbrook's lapses in the backcourt, they got PatBev too that may help the defensive end.

I don’t think they would have picked up Dennis and Pat if they were keeping Russ. This news along with Westbrook putting his house up for sale makes me think that a deal is already in place and now they’re just working out the details. Since Westbrook is already privy to this information I would assume it involves some sort of buyout or sign and trade. I think we’ll find out in the next 2 weeks what the real story is.

Since Westbrook is already privy to this information I would assume it involves some sort of buyout or sign and trade. I think we’ll find out in the next 2 weeks what the real story is. That's what I think as well when I first saw the post in Facebook saying that Westbrook's house is being sold but at the end of the day, this will remain as a rumor until there is no confirmed trade that happened, but which team is interested in him? That's the one question that I'm curious with if he will be traded. Schroder is among the list of Oladipo and other players who rejected a huge offer and after that, they are being paid close to veteran minimum. I mean if he only accepted that 4-year $80M deal with the Lakers then he must've more money now, but he got eaten by his ego and asked for a higher price and now this is the price he needs to pay. Well, it is what it is. Instead of earning $80M in the next 4 years, he only earned less than $10M in the past 3 years. It's not all bad I guess because the good thing is he is back with the Lakers, and he will be a big help there.
