    So the "2 month trial" thing comes out and all of a sudden he has nothing but praise for our young guys.

    Here comes more Tarik Black too, more minutes and starting position back for DAR, (maybe) Randle, certainly more minutes for both. Sensible rotations, no more blaming the young guys for EVERYTHING (while taking credit for their development due to his methods) and in his quest to keep his job enough more wins to help insure we wind up losing the pick.

    No thanks. Sacto should be better than they are with that roster, same as us. Also, rational or not I hate Karl, and he seems to have always hated the Lakers. Lastly, side note, glad to hear Brooklyn got that win, now we're 2 back from them in the loss column.

    We should lose to SA tonight, and Philly and Brooklyn play each other so that's a win/win.

    Yeah, it probably took an a** chewing from the FO and a public bashing in the media by MacLean to start changing Scott's stance and complimenting these players...

    I think Karl is a huge upgrade over Byron, and I don't think he hates the Lakers at all. I think he totally respects them.

    If he did before, you think he respects us after choosing an ignorant buffoon over him? I honestly don't. This might be an appealing job for an up and coming coach or someone who has been watching us and thinks they can turn us around like maybe Thibs, but after his mediocre team has played us what, twice I think, I doubt we look appealing to him.

    This is such bull s***...as soon word hits about his audition for next year, we see a drastic change in comments, rotations, and behavior from this douche bag. Hell, we could beat the second best team in the west. If he keeps his job and we lose our pick, I'm not watching a single game next year.

    Any of us here would be an upgrade over Byron and I'm not even kidding.

    He is getting paid millions to do it too. That's a lot of salt in a giant wound.

    Boron really pissed me off yesterday. His substitution patterns cost us the game.
    For whatever reason he played Sacre 8 minutes in the 3rd quarter. Then Black played what maybe 6 minutes in the second half before rolling with Bass at center? Why did he do that?

    He held Clarkson out until 4 minutes left in the 4th quarter, which means he was cold when he went back in. Clarkson was scoring at will against the Spurs' defense. Then when he brings him in, he brings him in for Russell instead of Lou, right when Russell was starting to do some damage. So now Clarkson is cold, Russell is no longer in the game, Black not in, guess what happens next.

    His substitution patters are such a mess, what he'll do next is anyone's guess.

    they call me yung b0ron, yeah you know im a clown.
    every night in lakerland i go out on the town.

    tell those stupid rookies they aint even got a chance.
    might as well go put on their suit, tie and pants.

    i wont give them the keys to the car until they're older,
    or maybe if they go find a twenty ton boulder,

    and push that thing up a mountain, now, do it twice.
    im an old school coach, no im not very nice.

    its kobe's farewell season, come on, give me a break.
    sacre deserves some minutes too, one time he bought me steak.

    he took me to denny's - they got some good food!
    i told him about my strategy that depends on my mood.

    if d'angelo is playing even slightly well,
    i take him right out and explain he's going to hell.

    when julius asks me where he should go on the floor,
    i tell him it doesnt matter. be a man, thats what you work for!

    you know i treat these two kids like i would my own sons -
    take out the leather belt and whip them on their little buns.

    you think they're raw talent? nope, not raw enough.
    another couple whips, i gotta show em that im tough.

    worst laker season in history?.. that's okay.
    as long as those little brats learn the b0ron way.

    Waxing poetic, Freethepeople and Sirron...those are lovely rhymes, albeit made for Boron.

    Oh the horror!
    A nickname that rhymes with our coach's
    I'd rather be caught dead
    My mouth stuffed full of roaches

    So that's McHale, Hollins, Blatt, Hornacek, and Fisher fired, Karl rumored to be on the hot seat, and B0ron remains employed. Ok..

    To add, Ramona Shelburne just said on SportsCenter that Luke Walton has to be the Knicks #1 target here. So that's great, I'm glad we're sitting back waiting while good coaches are available.
