    In my college english classes it would take me days to write a 3-5 page essay..... I could probably write a 10 page paper on why Byron sucks just from that 1 game in an hour.

    Bass will at least be physical, rebound, hustle, and hit a few shots.

    Kelly gives you nothing. Might be the worst player in the NBA.

    This guy didn't do anything the entire game. He rarely called timeouts or made any substitutions to adjust to the situation, especially in the late third quarter. He was just standing there watching the game. And why wouldn't you call timeout once Randle got the rebound? There was no advantage at all. I think Randle even stood there for a second thinking there would be a timeout. Pay me to stand on the sidelines! I'll do it for way cheaper!

    Kelly did well in the preaseson so I can understand playing him but not at center. That's just suicide.

    You've to play Black some minutes. The guy can at least give you some hustle and rebounding out there. That's inexcusable frankly.

    I don't understand what Black did to Byron. He had like one stretch in the whole preseason where he looked bad. Other than that he boarded, he ran the floor on offense and for some lobs, he made nice cuts and had good chemistry with Russell. I just don't get it, he is very effective offensively with smart PG's and defensively he isn't a shot-blocker, but he's strong and he grabs boards.

    I like Kelly, actually. However, I'm more high on Nance quite frankly but he just isn't ready. He'd be more valuable defensively; a lot hinges on his jump shot.

    How many games before we get "Byron sucks" chants going at Staples Center?

    I think he's made a LOT of money off of playing with Magic Johnson. That's what I think. It not only made his career as a player, but it's carried him as a coach in spite of his horrible record. Playing with Magic spoiled him and probably limited his growth as a potential coach.

    Only when he could turn the entire team over to Kidd or Paul did he make the playoffs as a coach. And even then, he was exposed. I think he has been given far more credit as a coach than he deserves, and he is being extremely exposed right now.

    Kidd and Paul. Jason Kidd did whatever he wanted offensively; Eddie Prince ran the offense, and Kidd had full control. Kidd and Scott butted heads more than a few times. Plus, Scott liked to golf more than coach I heard. In Charlotte, D. West criticized him for straight running too much pick in roll with Paul and said what the offense they were running wasn't effective. In Cleveland, they scrapped his offense two months into the season and were burned out on his training camps. Do we see a pattern developing here?

    He's the reason we lost. Kelly at C, Kobe with 8-24 (3-13), not calling a TO right after Randle's rb. WTF is he f is he thinking?

    scott isn't that bad of a coach, but i really don't think he's the right fit for this bunch

    unfortunately, he's not going anywhere. the last thing this team needs is to look for another coach. aren't we still paying brown and d'antoni?
