There is a lot of work to do if you wanna win at least 30 games next season.
1) Other than Jrue and Zion what other guys would start on another team? Maybe Lonzo?
2) When Zion goes to the bench who takes his place at the 4 position?
3) Shooters!! This team needs shooters! No one but Jrue that I would feel safe jacking it up with the game on the line. Thanks for your time. Bayourat standing by....

Was Ingram not a starter for LA last year?

You don’t think Brandon Ingram would start in half the teams in the league??

Lonzo, Jrue, Zion and Ingram would all start on most teams

Let's not use LAL as a barometer for who is or is not starting caliber

With that said, I still think Ingram is a starting caliber player and that the OP needs to chill until we use our 30 mil in cap space

I really think Ingram is a average player hoss. I know he averaged 20 points last year but the Lakers sucked. He had to do it all

Could you maybe wait for free agency to begin?

I know I'm going to fast, but everyone is focused on the center position. I just think we need to spend that money And spread the wealth on the whole lineup

Zion + Jrue would start for almost every team in the league

Lonzo and Ingram would start for about half the league

Hart, Moore, + NAW are all shooters

30+ million in cap will also go a long way in adding more pieces

I think we need a solid option for backup point and a stretch big as musts but outside of that I am pretty happy with where we are vs where we were a month ago personnel wise.

We didn’t even play one game yet and you’re already complaining. I believe the coaches more than someone who just posts on a board. We was one of the top scoring teams last year and the previous year. I don’t see why we can’t do it again? Just because we don’t have AD? Seriously?

A bad position??

Jrue
Zion
Ingram
Ball
Hart
Moore
Wood
Okafor
Hayes

That's our top 9 guys, and I would put them as a whole as top 12 in the league ..

We have 30+ million in cap space to spend also

We are in a GREAT position, I dont know where you're getting this bad position from

A couple role players and I'm betting on this squad to be a playoff team

I could argue we are in a better position than last year.

Yeah you right!
All I'm saying is as far as picking up good players in the next few weeks we should look at the whole lineup instead of just a center position

Again, we have 30 freaking million to spend in a GREAT FA class

Guards should be fine with Lonzo, Hart, NWA and Holiday. SFs are Ingram, Moore, Williams. PF/Cs will be Hayes, Okafor, Williamson and Woods.

I don’t see how we are in a bad position. Bad position would be still having Solo and having no cap space.

Exactly. You think average NBA guys are stepping out there and getting 20 ppg? I'm not saying he's a future MVP but he's above average.
