    He will either have to learn soon or he’ll be gone. Mark Walter and co. won’t suffer fools for long.

    Agreed, coach needs to learn from his mistakes quick and not keep making the same ones.

    He's sort of why I'd like a malik monk type of heat check guy. Lakers have 3 elite playmakers but none of them are quick shifty players - when smith Jr has it going it's like floodgates open in terms of the offense.

    Maybe if Gabe is hurt longer, they can see if Smith Jr can get regular minutes in the rotation - any guy who isn't afraid to take open shots is critical for the offense.
