    Keep Zubac. Keep Ingram. Trade everyone else. They just don't have it mentally.

    I think Russ will still be a start. Ingram may become an exceptionally good player. Randle has a fascinating combination of skills (but just as fascinating weaknesses). Clarkson - no. Bad defender, gunner. If he played under control, he'd be a Barbosa-type player, which is just fine.

    I hated everything I half-watched tonight.

    Dr. Buss wouldn't stand for this nonsense and I don't expect Magic and Pelinka to stand for it.

    This game was pathetic. Everyone stunk except for Zu and Metta. I'd bench the whole team and pick fans out of the stands to put on a jersey. Maybe they might play with some pride wearing the purple and gold.

    We need a vets that can still play. Guys that will give it there all when they are out there. If any of the kids aren't engaged or earning playing time, replace them with the vet. That sounds so Byron-esque and it annoys me.

    I understand we are young and don't really have a go to guy yet, but the way we get blown out each game is inexcusable.

    I could live with losing for now but you still gotta fight. I hate al these blow outs every couple games, it's been the same thing every season for the past 5 seasons.

    I've been annoyed with the kids since Jan and it hasn't improved by much. Can you believe this was the same group that started 10-10? That feels like so long ago.

    Something's gotta change, maybe a lot of things.

    The Lakers are 10-37 in their last 47 games. Thats like...insanely bad.

    10 of 47 games have been won...thats like slightly above 20%.

    Take away the first month and this team is exactly where it was last year...at the very end of the bottom.

    Its so tiresome.

    I think the worst part about this season is it's looking like a lot of the crap we've put up with over the past few seasons has been for almost nothing. Randle and Russell are just not winning players. They are talented losers. There have been many talented losers throughout the years that have decent careers, but damn. They've gotten to the point where trading them for something that will help moving forward has become difficult. In the end, Zubac and Ingram still may be salvageable, maybe Nance (granted there is definitely something wrong with him lately). I think you may want to get Russell, Randle and Clarkson off the team quickly this offseason. I am starting to worry their loser mentality will rub off on others.

    Turns out Lavar Ball is his long lost uncle.



    I'm not sure public shaming is effective, but there are times it's deeply satisfying.

    You're assuming we'd make the tournament.
