The '14-15 Los Angeles Lakers were an awful team. While even awful teams can be entertaining on occasion, last year's Lakers were not one of those occasions. The '15-16 Lakers project to be a different story, thankfully.
The team will still lose more often than they win, but instead of those losses coming in low scoring games on the backs of Ronnie Price, Wesley Johnson, Carlos Boozer, and other veterans with no future with the organization, this team should be fun. With a youth movement in place, a healthy Kobe Bryant in his final season, and just enough veterans to keep the team respectable (on offense at least), these Lakers should offer infinitely more reasons to watch.
