    Nick Young's Swag given consecutive DNP coach's decisions this month.

    When asked to comment Byron Scott said Young's Swag, natural scoring ability, instant offence and IDM x factor is an obstacle for his team gaining the grit he intends to make a hallmark of this Laker team. Byron added 'While the players union prohibits me from benching an actual player in order to develop character, there is nothing to prevent me from benching any individual characteristic of a players personality such as Swag." In related innovations Scott has at various times benched mensa member Wes' Johnsons Einstein level intelligence and Jeremy lin's ability to comprehend any words that Kobe says (but only during game time and practices says Byron otherwise that would be unethical.

    Byron felt his initial coaching strategy to kill Kobe Bryant was sound but proved unpopular with Laker GM Mitch Kupchack and various Laker season ticket holders. Byron believed that systematically running such a Laker legend into an earlier grave would be a way to inspire grit and tenacity. An anonymous Lakers player who can now be confirmed to be Steve Nash has claimed that he left the Laker's fold effectively when he suspected what Byron was trying. "If Byron would do that now how safe was my Canadian bacon." What is more Byron's playbook according to Nash featured bizarre pictures of Kobe Bryant, akin to the journals and odd rooms in the movie Se7en. Curiously the only words were the phrase "All play and no grit makes Byron a dull boy" written in paragraphs like they were prose or even poems. Nash also received voice mail messages tirgrum tirgrum tirgrum which he did not reply to.

    Byron was unavailable for comment having retired to his daily gravel, dirt, broken glass and barb wire baths said to be a restorative measure to counteract the soft moisturizer filled Hollywood environment. Also making a low key exit from Staples Center with five Laker girls was Nick's Swag. Nick Young conceded that his shot making ability, ability to get phone numbers, naked texts and twitter followers had been severely hindered recently without his customary Swag. "Man I wish I knew another way to score points other than chucking 3's" said Young as he made 50 free throws and eluded the whole Lakers back court with his elusive drives to the rim in practice. Carlos Boozer's "HOLDAT" is said to have been a mentor for Nick Young's swag, and he has been happy to council and advise the swag of Nick through chats and DM's during this trying time.

    ^^^ Ruh Roh. Time for the classic line to Iggy, "Who you going to believe, me or your lyin' eyes?" Damn just noticed too that's the classic Chevy convertible she gave him for Christmas. He is toast.

    So that's what those tweets were about.

    Whatever. I'm not much into the gossip level of stuff anymore. If he's cheating, he's a fool. Kobe should have given him some advice on that.

    Pictures of two people hanging out, even at a house, don't mean anything though. I have girls that I'm friends with that I can hang out with and it's not a big deal.

    Unless this stuff was leaked from a PI that's been hired by Azalea to keep tabs on Nick... The hell is this person doing spying on a guy? Get a life.

    Hmmmm. For the most part, those pictures look like nothing. The only one that looks a bit off is the bottom right. it looks like he's touching her behind. But they could be posing for a picture (which is kinda looks like).

    Hand is on her lower back area. I do that all the time. I see no problem with it after an honest conversation with his significant other. Again though I'm really not all that interested in the gossip...

    Man I really don't like when personal life gossip and tabloid stuff comes to the Lakers/sports. That said if he's cheating that's messed up, and he's stupid if he thinks nobody would see as a well known athlete in LA. At the same time I never get why sports stars, music stars, and famous actors get in serious relationships or married when they have women throwing themselves at them and are on the road/on tour all the time. These men are human, you expect this stuff to happen. It's not an excuse, it's reallty, shouldn't be in a real relationship if you can't or don't want to turn the groupies down.

    Lakers coach Scott takes issue with Nick Young's recent play

    by Igor Mello | CBSSports.com

    Lakers coach Byron Scott took issue with small forward Nick Young getting more technical fouls and hurting his club's ball movement, despite his improved performance Friday against the Jazz, reports the Los Angeles Daily News.

    Young scored a team-high 23 points on 4 of 9 shooting from the field and 13 of 13 shooting from the free-throw line in a 94-85 loss. He was shooting 26.1 percent from the floor in his previous five games.

    "Shooters keep shooting," Young said. "The basketball gods talked to me today and told me to go out, continue to play and get your head right. I listened."

    Scott indicated that Young needs to work on "other thing" if he wishes to "continue to be on the floor." Despite his bounce-back performance, the Lakers had a season-low seven assists and 19 turnovers. Young was also slapped with a technical foul late in the fourth quarter. He has four this season, including an ejection last month against the Thunder when he nearly had an on-court altercation with Steven Adams.

    "That will be the second time I will tell him," Scott said. "There won't be a third."

    Through 31 games, Young is averaging 14.3 points and 2.4 rebounds while shooting 36.9 percent from the field. Last season, he averaged a career-best 17.9 points per game while shooting 43.5 percent from the field.
