This Lakers team is just not very good post trade. It's a poorly constructed roster with zero playable centers and pieces that don't fit together.

Nuggets just look like they weren't ready for this level of intensity and kudos to JJ for a solid defensive gameplan.

Could use some depth at center but meh on the rest.

What do you think their ceiling is then? Given how hard their schedule is good chance they end up a play in team. Either way can't see them going past the second round best case.

The Luka trade is for the future. Probably worse in the short term.

Same, 2nd rd. Maybe conference finals depending on matchups but not likely.

Definitely not a championship roster imo but it's not a bad Lakers team.

It’s crazy how quickly the Nuggets lost all the depth they had 2 years ago. This is a really bad team outside of their top 4 guys. Their best bench player is Russell Westbrook. Holy smokes.

Lol. 2 of their last 3 games are losses to two of the worst teams in the league.

Young Lebron would have murdered Murray on that break

This game makes me concerned for Denver. I think a lot of what they're doing in the regular season isn't going to work in the playoffs, and the Lakers are exposing those flaws tonight.

Denver doesn’t have depth. Their owners went cheap and decided not to pay anyone. They’re not a contender.

Not that the regular season means much, but they lost by double digits to the Cs. You can look at this Nuggets team and see they’re 2-3 players short from contending. Russell Westbrook wouldn’t play on the Thunder or Celtics and yet he looks like he’s the Nuggets 4th or 5th option.

Now the regular season doesn’t mean much when discussing other teams
