假如湖人真的能在本赛季向队史第17 次总冠军倡议冲击,以下三个要害身分将引领他们走向成功.

信不信由你,洛杉矶湖人就是2018-19 赛季NBA 总冠军的有力争取者.或许今朝看起来但愿不年夜,并且几近每小我城市告知你湖人夺冠机遇迷茫,可是假如你继续浏览这篇文章,我会为你描画出一个比你在年夜大都博客专栏中看到的都要出色的将来.

毫无疑问,湖人会晤临一些阻碍,在西部季后赛中杀出重围将会是一个很年夜的挑战.可是,在此之前,仅仅是尽力拿到16 张季后赛门票中的一张这一项,就足以考验这支球队的意志.是以我其实不是说湖人队将会鄙人个赛季中胡作非为,碾压在同盟中的其他球队.

竞争总冠军需要全队倾尽所有,或许这还不敷.或许勒布朗 ·詹姆斯需要奉献出他最超卓的表示.但即使如斯,我仍然相信湖人有机遇冲击总冠军.

你是不是附和我的不雅点完全取决在你本身.我在此只是想向大师揭示一些能将这支被轻忽的球队改变成一支令敌手害怕的球队的要害身分.这些身分可否湖人带来总冠军还未可知,但我此刻想告知你的是,湖人的夺冠机遇远跨越年夜大都人的想象.

话不多说,我们接下来进入正题.以下是我认为湖人是2018-19 赛季NBA 总冠军有力争取者的三年夜要害身分.

3. 他们的年青焦点在延续前进

湖人队所谓的"年青焦点" ,包罗布兰登 ·英格拉姆、朗佐 ·鲍尔、凯尔 ·库兹玛和约什 ·哈特在内,年数都很小,别离只有20 岁、20 岁、23 岁和23 岁.一般来讲,年夜大都NBA 球员常常在25 岁摆布到达职业生活生计的巅峰.我只想说,这四名年青球员还很年夜的成漫空间.

我们已看到了这四名球员使人印象深入的前进.英格拉姆在上赛季前成长显著,极可能在2018-19 赛季中成为一位新星.作为一位新秀,鲍尔的投篮或许堕入了瓶颈,但他是一位精英级此外组织者和一位超卓的戍守者.库兹马有着不成思议的从替补席中站出来得分的能力,哈特在夏日联赛中揭示出了足以竞争最好第六人的潜力.

我想说的是,这些年青的湖人前程无量.跟着他们逐步顺应NBA 赛场,他们的手艺也会随之越发纯熟起来.或许他们中的一两小我终究到达上限,但每一个人都最少还一到两年的上升期.

英格拉姆已揭示出攻防两头都有影响力的侧翼的风度,2018-19 赛季他在这方面必然会获得更多前进；鲍尔的投射能力会愈来愈好；库兹马已是球队进攻中不成或缺的气力,不外依然需要改良他在戍守真个表示；哈特可能成为这些球员中不测获得成功的球员,下赛季他有能力为替补席带来活力(或首发进场).

同时,我们也不克不及健忘莫里茨 ·瓦格纳、伊维卡 ·祖巴茨和斯维亚托斯拉夫 ·米哈伊柳克等球员,他们都有一技之长.假如这三名球员中的一位能在2018-19 赛季初证实本身在场上有所进献,那末他将会为湖人年青出众的天才球员们锦上添花.

他们可能不是纯熟的季后赛宿将,但接下来我就要会商湖人队中的这类球员.

2. "造梗之队" 可以奉献高效力的表示

人们极可能会冷笑湖人在这个休赛期签下勒布朗后的一系列签约.这帮怪僻的家伙：兰斯 ·斯特芬森,拉简 ·朗多,贾维尔 ·麦基和迈克尔 ·比斯利,必定会让良多人百思不得其解.

但是,我偏向在相信魔术师约翰逊和他做出的决议.到今朝为止,他还从未将湖人引入邪路.在上任的一年半时候里,他把湖人队从NBA 的笑柄酿成了一个有力竞争者.所以让我们姑且信赖他,即便这些球员看起来其实不彼此契合.

事实上,假如湖人能激起出以上这四名球员所具有的哪怕800%的潜力,他们的声势就将十分壮大.

史蒂芬森在遵守球队战术时是一个危险的辅助性进攻利器；多年来,隆多始终是一位多面手,但同时他还是一个高效的组织者,并时不时展现出值得人们频频谈论的戍守技能；麦基是一位被低估的球员,他可以在球场两头都奉献出惹人注视的表示；再看看比斯利客岁在纽约尼克斯队的表示吧——他是替补席上奸刁、优异的弓手.

在勒布朗身旁打球需要相当高的水准.看起来做出这个判定并不是基在克利夫兰骑士队在2018 年季后赛中的艰巨表示,但这确切是真的.你最好相信詹皇会在这个赛季中激起出他队友的全数潜能.

不要低估湖人和他们这些不合群的球员.他们会冷艳到你,特别是当季后赛到临的时辰.

1. 勒布朗 ·詹姆斯

假如你等候的榜单榜之首与此分歧,那你真的需要多看看篮球了.

世界上最伟年夜的球员此刻是一位湖人了,并且他单枪匹马地改变了球队的短时间前景.年夜大都人仿佛告竣了共鸣,认为他不克不及在第一年就率领球队登顶.但我深信,在谈论到NBA 总决赛中,你永久不克不及将勒布朗解除在外.德韦恩 ·韦德必然很赞成这个说法(来自ESPN 的Ohm Youngmisuk 的报导)

要记得,在曩昔八年里,詹姆斯都率领球队进入了总决赛.固然他只博得了三次总冠军,但我们不克不及轻忽勒布朗大白若何率领球队成为顶尖的事实.

是的,他此刻身处西部了.是的,他需要面临金州勇士队和休斯顿火箭队.固然从西部突围会是一条更艰巨的道路,但对詹皇而言,这其实不同等在不成能.詹姆斯之前就履历过窘境,并且这也绝对不会是他的最后一次.

我还认为詹姆斯在洛杉矶能比他上赛季在克利夫兰取得更多队友的帮忙.特殊是假如像鲍尔和英格拉姆如许的年青球员可以或许晋升他们的角逐程度,这个赛季邻近竣事时,他身旁的先天比拟上赛季将会呈指数增加.这将使他在西部季后赛中的战役加倍有趣.

此刻有太多人毁谤勒布朗.他不再在东部顺风顺水,他此刻太老了,他不再在意总冠军了……等等等等.这些都是无稽之谈.勒布朗 ·詹姆斯依然是世界上最伟年夜的球员,并且下赛季他将会在湖人队证实这一点.

Los Angeles Lakers: 3 keys to being legitimate contenders in 2018-19

Gil Alcaraz IV

If the Los Angeles Lakers actually make a legitimate run at their 17th NBA Finals victory this season , these three key factors will be what gets them there.

Believe it or not , the Los Angeles Lakers are contenders for the 2018-19 NBA title. It may not seem like it right now , and nearly everyone is going to try to convince you otherwise. If you keep reading , though , I ’ll paint you a prettier picture than you ’ll find in most corners of the blogosphere.

There are undoubtedly going to be some hurdles. Finding their way through the Western Conference playoffs will be quite the challenge. Then again , just earning one of those 16 tickets to the postseason is going to be a test of this team ’s will all by itself. I ’m not saying the Lakers are just going to stride into this season and run roughshod on the rest of the league.

It ’s going to take everything this roster has and then some. LeBron James may need to play some of his best basketball to get them there. And yet , when all is said and done , I believe there ’s a legitimate chance the Lakers can make a run.

Whether or not you agree is up to you. I ’m only here to try and shine some light on a few of the key aspects that could turn this overlooked squad into one worth being feared. Whether or not it leads to a title is still to be determined , but I ’m telling you now that it ’s more likely than most assume.

And with that said , let ’s get into it. The following are what I believe to be the three keys to the Lakers emerging as legitimate contenders during the 2018-19 NBA season.

3. The continued development of their young core

The ages of the Lakers ’ so-called "young core ," including Brandon Ingram , Lonzo Ball , Kyle Kuzma and Josh Hart: 20 , 20 , 23 and 23 , respectively. In general , most NBA players tend to reach their peak in their mid-to-late 20s. Suffice it to say there ’s still plenty more growing up to do for this group.

And yet , we ’ve already seen impressive development from these four. Ingram took a huge step forward a season ago , and appears on pace to emerge as a legitimate star in 2018-19. Ball may have struggled to shoot as a rookie , but was an elite playmaker and solid defender. Kuzma brings uncanny scoring skills off the bench , and Hart proved he ’s dripping with Sixth Man of the Year potential during Summer League.

The point I ’m trying to make here is that the sky is the limit for these young Lakers. As their careers mature , their talents will mature right along with them. One or two may hit a ceiling eventually , but each one has at least another year or two of considerable upward movement.

Ingram has already flashed potential as a disruptive two-way wing , and should make more progress in that regard in 2018-19. Ball is going to get better at shooting. Kuzma is already an offensive force , and should undergo defensive improvement. Hart could be the sleeper of the bunch , with the potential to emerge as a dynamic presence off the bench (or as a starter ) this season.

We also mustn ’t forget players like Moritz Wagner , Ivica Zubac and Sviatoslav Mykhailiuk , who all possess some semblance of upside. If another one of those three names can prove themselves as a quality contributor early in 2018-19 , it ’ll put a pretty little bow atop this package of young , tantalizing talent.

They may not be a bunch of seasoned , playoff-hardened veterans , but that ’s what the next group I ’m going to discuss is for.

2. Getting efficient play from the "Meme Team"

It ’s very easy to poke fun at the post-LeBron signings the Lakers put together this offseason. The oddball bunch of Lance Stephenson , Rajon Rondo , JaVale McGee and Michael Beasley certainly had plenty of people scratching their heads.

However , I ’m in the club that tends to trust Magic Johnson and his decision-making. He hasn ’t led the Lakers astray thus far , taking them from one of the NBA ’s laughingstocks to a legitimate contender in about a year and a half. So let ’s give the guy the benefit of the doubt , even if the pieces don ’t seem to fit.

Realistically , if the Lakers get even 80 percent of the potential possessed by the four aforementioned players , they ’ll be in good shape.

Stephenson can be a dangerous , complementary offensive weapon when he plays under control. It ’s been years since Rondo was a consistent two-way player , but he ’s still an effective facilitator who has shown spurts of the defensive prowess people talk about from time to time. McGee is an underrated asset who can make splashy plays on both ends of the floor. And just look at what Beasley did with the New York Knicks last year — he ’s a sneaky-good shooter off the bench.

Playing alongside LeBron demands a certain level of play. It may not seem that way based on the way the Cleveland Cavaliers limped through the 2018 NBA Playoffs , but it ’s true. You better believe the King will bring out the best in his teammates this season.

Don ’t discount the Lakers and their band of misfits. They may just surprise you , especially once the playoffs roll around.

1. LeBron James

If you were expecting anything different atop this list , then you need to watch more basketball.

The greatest player in the world is now a Laker , and he ’s single-handedly turned this team ’s short-term outlook around. The general consensus seems to be that he can ’t take this team to the top in his first year , but I ’m a firm believer that there ’s no counting out LeBron when it comes to the NBA Finals. Dwyane Wade would agree with that assertion (via ESPN ’s Ohm Youngmisuk ).

We must remember that , for the last eight years , James has led his team to the Finals. Although he ’s only won three times , we simply can ’t ignore the fact that LeBron knows how to make it the top.

Yes , he ’s in the West now. Yes , he has the Golden State Warriors and Houston Rockets to go through. While the West will prove to be a more treacherous path for the King , it doesn ’t mean it ’s impossible. James has certainly overcome adversity before , and this absolutely won ’t be the last time.

I would also make the argument that James has a better supporting cast in Los Angeles than he did a season ago in Cleveland. Especially if youngsters like Ball and Ingram can up their game , the amount of talent around him could be exponentially better by season ’s end than it was a year ago. That ’ll make his battle through the Western Conference playoffs all the more interesting.

Too many people are writing off LeBron right now. He isn ’t being babied in the East anymore , he ’s getting too old , he doesn ’t care about winning championships anymore … Blah , blah , blah. Enough with the nonsense. LeBron James is still the greatest player in the world , and he ’s going to provide more evidence of that during his upcoming campaign with the Lakers.
