    it's just f***ing sad to see how the C Bags have rebuilt in 2-3 years where the Lakers are nowhere near to be a 8th seed team in the playoffs.

    KCP started in Det. Lopez started for the lowly Nets. Lopez could probably start for 1/3 of the teams in the league. For a team developing for the future, I think just about every team would love to have Ball, Ingram and Kuzma. Maybe not starting on most, but definitely the future of the franchise.

    We have no semblance of a half court offense and thats all on Luke. Same goes for rotations.
    He's not putting his players in the best position to succeed or even his best players out there. Seeing Luke coach and then seeing Stevens or Atkinson coach is so different, you can actually see that they have a system. Unfortunately for Atkinson, he doesn't have the talent.

    How can this even be? Luke was supposed to be able to pull the best from the Warriors type offense and sprinkles of the old Triangle which he knew so well and is integrated there in some ways. Why Phil had such a stiffy for him.

    Luke talked about it a bit at practice today: he's giving everything to the defense. The offense will come around eventually, but he wants the defense to be working.

    I've been hard on him, but to his credit the defense is doing well. I'm not calling for his head, but he's mismanaged personalities and rotations thus far. If he can still find a way to build a successful program, I'll still support him. He's got a long way to go.

    Ainge fell backwards into success. Many fans wanted him fired.

    Kupchak ended poorly, but he had a tremendous run and was quite competent for a long time.

    I would love to be a fly on the wall if Mitch Kupchak walked into the same room with you and sat down.

    WMC, the one game I don’t watch a second of because I’m out doing Halloween stuff we blow the other team out. Great, we probably have a handful of games like this the entire season and I missed one.

    If I made my own brakes, I would constantly get in massive car accidents.

    Only WMC tonight is Zu. Tough to come in in that situation, but he looked 2 steps slower than everyone else.
