And a free agent. We really need to sign someone good. Walton + H. Barnes would be a solid offseason with or without the pick. Walton + H. Barnes...
Yeah, as awesome as it would be to get him, the odds are extremely stacked against it.
I think the one way they save face is to fire EVERYBODY. Jeanie just sits at the top and fires Mitch, Jim, Byron and his staff...everyone but Ryan...
I posted this in the Randle thread, but it applies here too. This is exactly why Byron needs to go. The rotations, the wins and losses...those...
This is exactly why Byron needs to go. The rotations, the wins and losses...those are all secondary. Russell and Randle are kids. And like all...
The problem isn't JUST Byron. It's the combination of Byron and Kobe. We can remove Byron, but if the dude who comes in to replace him is...
Del Harris was NOT a bad coach. He won Coach of the Year and helped develop our young players into a respectable team. He just wasn't the coach to...
After last night, I agree. There is no way the team can be doing anything but tanking at this point. My only hope is that Ryan West and Jeanie...
I posted something similar to this in the Byron Scott thread. Barnes fills a tremendous need and can help the transition to Luke Walton's system....
I still like Mitch as well, but at this point, a complete house cleaning is needed. An ideal offseason (since Durant isn't coming to this dumpster...
Byron Scott...not sure what else there is to say. Jeanie at this point needs to clean house. Fire Mitch. Fire Jim. Fire Byron and his entire crap...
I still don't believe that "3 years or I'll step down" crap. Nor do I believe Jeanie will fire him. I think they're just throwing Laker fans...
I'd throw a max, poison pill deal at Barnes. Do they match? probably, but at least you weakened them from a financial perspective. This offseason...
I don't think they anticipated Kobe being this bad and dragging this team down so hard. Full disclosure, I didn't think Kobe would be this bad...
I'm not entirely sure I understand the "logic" he's trying to follow. So because Scott underachieves with a roster far more talented than a...
I'm not "wishing" an injury upon anyone, especially our own players, especially a player who has done so much for this franchise. But at this...
We absolutely should NOT be tanking. We have our young trio in place already. We need to now grow them and nurture them. The Simmons kid sounds...
He'll continue to take them because he can't get his bread and butter shots off anymore. The defense knows he can't shoot them so they sag off. To...
Oh no doubt. Not saying I'm rooting for tanking. Unless we are like the worst record in the NBA by 3-4 games with 5 games remaining, then I may...
No doubt, it's possible. If Boron remains our coach, and he continues to coach this way, we could finish bottom 3 worst record at which point it's...
