how many wins do the lakers get with melo

[42 Monks]

Assuming he went there, 40-45 in the first season. Depending on how healthy Kobe is and how much Melo is willing to defer.

Defer to who though?

Melo is looking at an already arguably equal roster (yes, I believe Kobe is now) and he couldn't even get 40 in the East.

I dont think Kobe is a wash yet, but only time will tell. I hope we can get at least one more solid season from him.

With a healthy Kobe, they would make the playoffs as an 6-8 seed.
