Scott fired

[elcheato]

Acting like Byron Scott was in on it, and was purposely not playing good players is giving him too much credit. He is the worst coach.

It's more that I think the only reason he was hired was because the front office knew this was a rebuild and he was given the job basically because Kobe wanted him, with absolutely no intention of being competitive.

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.

I understand the premise behind it, but I disagree that playing Russell and Randle a little more wouldve made them significantly more competitve to make a difference.

I just wanted Scott to play them more thats all.

and that's giving the front office too much credit

Why else would they give him a two year contract and not retain him when all signs pointed to them sucking?

 

[elcheato]

idk they suck 

 

[Mexi]

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

and i stand by what i said

Even if they get a top 3, which would be a good thing for them
Itll be negated by Phil next year

If they get the 4 and lose it to philly, they just get ti be in next years draft and can tank again
