Former Lakers star Michael Cooper shares his thoughts on the race for the 2026 NBA Finals, expressing confidence in the Lakers' chances while welcoming the exit of the Boston Celtics from contention. Cooper highlighted the importance of team health, emphasizing that if the Lakers can avoid major injuries and keep 90% of their roster intact, they have a solid opportunity to win the championship. He praised Denver and Oklahoma City as strong contenders and showed skepticism about Indiana’s chances, while also backing the Dallas Mavericks if they stay healthy and Kyrie Irving returns mid-season. Cooper also noted that with LeBron James nearing the end of his career, he believes LeBron still has enough energy to lead the Lakers deep into the playoffs, especially with younger stars like Luka Doncic taking on significant scoring responsibilities.
