For starters, the team has let Danny Green and Kawhi
Leonard enter the free agency.,Without Leonard and Green, the team
is not going to be the favorite heading into next season.,The LA
Lakers beginning July 2019 as +280 favorites to win the NBA
Championship spoke volumes about how 2019/20 is expected to
unfold.,With the Golden State Warriors +1000 to win the big one,
the winner of the Pacific Division seems like an open-and-shut case
at any rate, especially with Kevin Durant leaving the Warriors
earlier this summer.,By contrast, Sacramento Kings are one of the
Lakers’ favorite opponents, with the Lakers winning four of the
last five H2H fixtures, and the sole loss in that sequence coming
by just one point.,As the second-favorites to win the Pacific
Division, Golden State Warriors are expected to be the Lakers’
biggest obstacle towards winning the division.
