    I can honestly say he's one player I enjoy watching this year on both sides of the ball.

    Long but great read on the inner thoughts of Nick Young through the last couple rocky years and all the stuff off the court along with the DNP's and how he's finally playing like himself again.

    Nick Young is playing like Swaggy P again

    He worked really hard this past summer. Had to figure he needed to crack the roster of some other team in some other city.

    Looks like Nick is going to be competing in the 3pt contest during All Star Weekend.

    He could win it!

    I'll be surprised if he finishes the last rack. The jump forward on every shot is gonna eat up time.

    If Nick get's hot like he does sometimes, he could win it...... if Clay has an off day.



    I don't know



    Don't ruin this for me. I need hope for a win this season

    His shot really isn't conducive to the 3-point contest, but hey I hope he does well. He's an entertainer at heart.

    Young with some rare praise for Byron Scott

    http://www.ocregister.com/articles/young-744404-lakers-point.html

    Just kidding.

    “With having a coach behind me, I don’t have to look over my shoulder or worry about coming out. That plays a major part,” said the 31-year-old Young, who grew up a Lakers fan and attended championship parades while starring at Cleveland High of Reseda and USC. “It messes up with your whole cycle when you have a coach who harps on everything you do and talks so down on you. It was tough.”
