My Predictions for the Los Angeles Lakers in 2017

Lonzo Ball being drafted with the Los Angeles Lakers has three things that he has to carry with him, one is with the Laker organisation; second, deliver the Lakers to the "Promise Land" a.k.a. the Western Conference Playoffs; finally, win the Rookie of the Year over Markelle Fultz, Malik Monk and DeAndre Fox. The Los Angeles Lakers are much more better as a team than last year's team because they have added young and veteran experience that will make Lakers as the hottest scene in town again after three years of tanking. Also, the Lakers are now a year into Luke Walton's system which he modelled it after the Golden State Warriors' foundation. However, Lonzo Ball needs to improve his shooting percentage and his mechanics in order to increase his arsenal in his repertoire, so that other defenders will lose sight of him. I think the Lakers are now prepare to run the mix of up-tempo and pace offence which benefits the young players such as Brook Lopez, Kyle Kuzma, JC6 a.k.a. Jordan Clarkson, KCP aka Kentavious Caldwell-Pope and many more. Ok ok I might be bias here because I am Laker fan but here is my prediction for the season, the Lakers will be in the mix in the NBA Playoffs this year with the record of 53-29.

If there is question on this prediction please email me or send me a tweet or comment on Facebook. It takes me ages to write this article and Good Karma is always the best.

Friendship. It's defined as the state of being attached to another person by feelings of affection or personal regard, but what really is friendship? Is it that occasional hallway talk with that one person who always manages to cheer you up? Is it that relationship you have with someone where they can be gone for a long period of time, but when they come back, it's like they never left? Is it spending every waking hour with someone, and knowing every detail about their life? Is it the relationship that's filled with fighting, but filled with even more resolution? I've learned that it's all of these things, and every friendship is different. It's a beautifully dysfunctional mess that should always be cherished and never be taken for granted.
