👉 Come and vote! Can the offseason signings allow the Lakers to enter the championship ranks next season?

Today, US media ClutchPoints issued a message to question whether the Lakers' current signings are enough to get them into the ranks of championship competition. The following is all content.

Lakers' new players should play a role as soon as possible, because their offseason operation is not eye-catching. They introduced:

🔹der Andre Ayton, who is expected to guard the inside as the new starting center.

🔹Marcus Smart, an experienced leader. (To make room to sign Smart, the Lakers cut Milton and Goodwin one after another)

🔹Jack Lalavia, a young wing player, is expected to gain a place in the team.

That's all. There are no earth-shaking big deals, and no big signing. And these three new players are under tremendous pressure.

Ayton needs to play to his height advantage. Smart will bear a lot of playing time and is expected to solidify the perimeter defense. Laravia needs to focus on entering the rotation lineup.

But are these enough? The competition in the West is fierce. The Thunder is the defending champion and is still improving. The Nuggets reorganized and strengthened Nikola Jokic. The Rockets just signed Kevin Durant. Are the Lakers ready enough to stay competitive?
