Lost among the understandable excitement of seeing a generational talent like LeBron getting to play with his son is that the Lakers did not do much to improve their team this offseason. This is a team that barely squeaked into the playoffs last year and relied heavily on a soon-to-be 40-year-old star. Additionally, count me among those that think the Wolves got better in their trade with the Knicks. Gobert can focus on the interior defensively while Randall gives them a true low-post threat offensively. To say nothing of DeVincenzo's ability to play both guard spots and alleviate the minutes of Conley. Minnesota rolls in the opener. Take Minnesota -1.
