[Pugz]

lakers fired bye-ron

 

[elcheato]

sad day for everyone who isnt a laker fan 

 

[Mexi]

David Blatt?
Mark Jackson(hopefully not this guy doesnt deserve another nba gig)

Crazy the lakers now have to fight for Luke potentially

Maybe that euro guy ettore messina. He was a mike brown assistant

Then theres the ol coach cal rumors

Maybe a kevin ollie rumor

Maybe new names

 

[Mexi]

Btw he wasnt fired
They had a team option, didnt use it

He will not be retained, but he wasnt fired

 

[elcheato]

It's the same thing as being fired

 

[Mexi]

Almost the same but not the same

 

[Pugz]

its the same

 

[CameronCrazy06]

Not quite

 

[buzzy]

When you work somewhere and they're not renewing your contract, guess what, you're being fired.

 

[bosoxlover12]

It's only different in that Byron would still be getting paid if he were fired

 

[buzzy]

Well he'd have made the same amount had he been fired in the traditional sense during the season. 
It's just that one firing occures during the duration of his contract, the other one after it's been completed. In the end he's not getting renewed, everything else is semantics.

 

[Pugz]

fine, hes been laid off with no call back date.

 

[cruzg24]

I love how we are talking about the semantics in relation to Byron Scott lol

The Lakers dont want him and are justified, he literally set the Lakers back by not playing the young kids more frequently

 

[CameronCrazy06]

God forbid a team that needs to suck in order to keep their draft pick not play their best players at all times right

 

[bosoxlover12]

I still really hope they get the 4th pick

 

[Mexi]

I still really hope they get the 4th pick

even if they get a top 3
If Phil really comes they're fucked

 

[bosoxlover12]

even if they get a top 3
If Phil really comes they're fucked

no.
 
their pick is top 3 protected. I hope it falls to 4 so they don't get it. 
 
 
 
fuck the lakers

Says the person who played sports and said that bat flips ruin the competitive integrity of the game.....

Never said it ruined the competitive integrity of the game? I just think Jose Bautista is a piece of shit

 

[CameronCrazy06]

You need to understand the front office aspect of this. The lakers needed to lose a lot in order to get in a position to keep their pick.
