Byron Scott Discussion 2015-16 - FIRED!!! (PAGE 172)

Fire Byron!

 

Holy s***...the build up from the first bag on Byron'so head to bags on everyone's heads...I almost fell off the couch! Thanks for the laugh after another garbage performance...man that is funny.

 

Right there with you on this. Byron was once one of my favorite Lakers. Now I pretty much despise him and can't stand to look at him on the sidelines. He's simultaneously running Kobe in the ground while doing everything he can to ruin our young guys. He is easily the worst coach in the league and its way past time for us to let him go.

 

Whoah!! Look at you ..... stepping your game up.

:Feelingyou:

 

AWESOME!! Enough is freaking enough with this A-Hole. Turn the heat up.

"and copied all major sports personalities" >>> this has me intrigued .....

 

I think he is a goner after the all-star break. The big problem is who do you get to fill in? Worthy? Madsen? If you go that route who do you have as an interim head coach and who will take explicit instructions to play the youngsters until their legs fall off? Will Worthy do that?

Or do you get a proven coach such as Thibs right now? The question is will there be anyone better on the market in the offseason compared to the guys that are available now?

 

I think you go the interim route with Madsen until the offseason. For one, the young guys have played under him since summer league, so they have a longer and more continuous relationship with him than Worthy. Also, I think Mark would have less of an ego than James, and would be more likely to follow management's orders and play the young guys heavy minutes.

Once the offseason rolls around, then you quickly set about finding a full time coach. With both the Pro and College seasons in the books, you'll ideally have a wider pool of candidates available.

 

I love how you've gone berserk on Twitter, Sirron

 

Yes great work! I like the media types also being copied on these. Hold off on the "poo" shots on his head and crown and scepter, though. Then they'd think you're just crazy. ...... oh wait!

 

Oh they have those too



I think the Kaminisky Brothers retweeted one of them lol

 

Nooo. You sent Jeanie the poo shots too?

 

I forget who I sent them too, but it was weeks ago. I didn't discriminate.

 

You know, maybe we've been too hard on Scott. In his defense as he sees it, it's the young guys' fault. The team is now "mentally fried" and no matter what he comes up with that's brilliant, makes no difference.


Byron Scott says the Los Angeles Lakers are mentally fried

The Los Angeles Lakers have lost 26 of their 31 games, and they've trailed by at least 20 points in each of their last seven losses, per ESPN's Baxter Holmes. After the latest defeat, head coach Byron Scott said the team was mentally fried:



"From a mental standpoint, we just look like we're fried," he said Sunday after the Lakers fell to 5-26 with a 112-96 loss to the Memphis Grizzlies. "We're not reacting accordingly and everything is a step or two behind."

Scott said that issue is "something we've got to fight through. When you've got a young bunch of guys, you've got to fight through." He said the Lakers also need to "focus a lot more."

"Tonight, just like the last game against the Clippers, just too many mental mistakes," he said. "It seems like we're a step or two slow on reacting on everything right now. I don't think it's physical, to be honest with you. I think tonight, the effort was there."



Hey, at least this is better than all the times Scott has called his team "soft." Around this time of year, it makes sense that the Lakers would be drained. All that losing takes a toll, and it's not as if they've been making great progress throughout the season.

You have to wonder, though, if Scott is going to consider giving D'Angelo Russell and Julius Randle more playing time. He benched them both three weeks ago, and they almost never reach the 30-minute mark anymore.

Scott said he'll take another look at his team's rotations following this road trip, which will conclude Tuesday with a game against the Boston C Bags. They remain the future of the franchise, and Russell in particular needs the ball in his hands. Considering the team's record, developing them should be the No. 1 priority.




Needs poo crown.

Byron Scott isn't seeing great things from the Lakers.

 

In other words, Boron has fried the players mentally.

 

You know things are bad when you start nodding your head at what Bill Simmons said.
