NBA 2018-19: How ready are the Los Angeles Lakers for the new season?

#5 The real task for the coaching staff

Can Luke Walton inspire his side?

Luke Walton is the Head Coach of the Lakers team. The last season really didn't end up good for him. He is still a young coach and has to put a lot of work to get this team going in the right direction. Last season, he couldn't use the team's ability to get the job done the right way and the interactions with Lavar Ball bothered him as well.

The team was scattered, there's been a lot of adjustments in the team, some players came, some were traded, and they couldn't coordinate well. This created chaos in the organization; they didn't even know where they are going and Walton didn't know how to stabilize the team.

This year is going to bring a lot of challenges for Walton. Now that James and other veterans have joined in, the job of Walton has gone to a new level. He needs to figure out how to coordinate the team, what should be the lineup and how they can match well in clutch situations.

As the 2018-19 NBA season is going to tip-off for the Lakers, the fans and the media is going to have tons of questions for them to be answered. The amount of pressure on Walton will be both on the court as well as off the court.
