Kenny ‘The Jet’ Smith
No King, No Ring!!!
Sorry, New Look Lakers
Revealed
The Los Angeles Lakers have been busy this offseason … however Kenny “The Jet” Smith would not suppose their new additions will fill the hole LeBron James is abandoning, ‘trigger he tells TMZ Sports activities their new roster would not have sufficient to compete for a championship.
We caught up with the NBA champ and “Inside the NBA” analyst out at LAX this week … and requested his ideas on the state of the Purple and Gold.
The Lakers introduced in Walker Kessler, Collin Sexton, Sandro Mamukelashvili, Quentin Grimes and re-signed Austin Reaves thus far … and Smith mentioned Luka Dončić and the crew will certainly be a playoff workforce — however that is about it.
“This is a competitive team, but not a championship team yet,” Smith mentioned. “LeBron James makes them a championship team.”
We threw out the concept of James one way or the other getting again on the Lakers — despite the fact that either side mentioned their goodbyes final week — and Smith mentioned with this group of fellows, they’d be legit contenders.
As for the “Snowtime Lakers” nickname going round on-line … Smith has some phrases about that, too.
