Poll: How many games will the Lakers win this season?
The Lakers' season got off to a less-than-stellar start on Tuesday night. Not only did they lose, 108-90, to the Houston Rockets, they also lost promising rookie Julius Randle to a broken leg.
Randle, the seventh overall pick in the draft, is expected to have surgery Wednesday and will probably miss the season.
Kobe Bryant, with 19 points, and Carlos Boozer, with 17, were the only two Lakers starters to score in double figures. Jeremy Lin had a rough debut, scoring seven points with six assists.
So, with all that in mind, how do you think the Lakers will do this season? Will they finish over .500?
