    The kid's minutes off the bench. I understand the bench to get them away from Kobe if you must, but those two need 30 minutes a night and instead they're playing role player minutes. Even more than that, they worked their a**** off to get back in the starting lineup and weren't rewarded for it. Somehow the FO seems to think this is acceptable from your Head Coach and I'm sick of it. I'm sick of watching the same dumb **** every game. I'm sick of losing. I'm sick of the Buss children not getting the job done. It's all bull****. The Lakers franchise is being dragged through the mud beaten and broken, and nothing is being done about it.

    Dang the real deal with a DeMarcus Cousins type meltdown lol

    But I feel ya man. This front office sucks (outside of Mitch). They're losing and they're not headed in the right direction.


    I can offer you some glimmer of hope, the current warriors owner allowed Don Nelson and Keith smart to bench Steph Curry at the end of games in favor of Acie Law and Monta Ellis. It was aggravating but Steph said that kind of early adversity was good for him and it kept him humble and working hard on his game. I hope Russell does the same.

    The situation right now is toxic and discouraging but adversity can only strengthen our young fellas. I hope they kept their heads straight during this stretch. Byron won't last long

    Not really, Rock. I'm just telling the truth. We're headed in the absolute wrong direction and I'm fed up with it. We deserve better than what we're being given. Across the board. There's no more excuses for anyone in the Lakers' organization right now, they're all failures. We're sitting now in the same position as the Sixers and yet we're supposed to be legacy franchise? Why isn't anyone mad at us for tanking? We're doing almost as well as them in that regard. Everyone in this organization needs to figure it out quickly or get out quickly. Let people take over that know what they're doing. The only ones who have done their job well are the scouting department and I suppose anyone in charge of marketing. The Lakers aren't hurting for money, they just stealing from us while giving us a God-awful product. Laker fans spend top dollar to watch this team play and we're being given 53-143 over the last 3 years.

    No more excuses. I've had enough. Pick a lane and go with it. You want to rebuild? Play the f***ing kids. You want to tank so more? Play the f***ing kids! There's no reason not to play the kids! As long as the FO enables Byron to do this, they need to be torn apart too. All of them.

    Who you should really bomb is Time Warner Cable. Their interest carries the most weight.

    Putting Kobe in the game when he already has ice on his shoulder may be the tipping point. Kobe is the cash cow that brings in the $$ while the tank is on.

    If Kobe gets hurt again, tanking is going to be very expensive this season. On top of that, not playing the young guys will not help them develop nor will it interest fans to only watch them play 20 minutes.

    If one doesn't have a Twitter account and goes to any of these peoples' sites, I guess you don't see any tweets up other than from that person on the site? Is that correct? Are your tweets about Byron on any of these sites like Jeanie's staying there in the timeline or do they typically get whacked and disappear?

    Tried to indicate credit to @The Showtime Mamba but my dyslexia kicked in. Stroke of genius!

    Maybe if we all stop going to Laker games and just start going to Clipper games, that might wake them up?

    I'll say it so @sirronstuff doesn't have to.

    Tonight we won IN SPITE of Byron, not because of him.

    Bryon is like that embarrassing drunk uncle that you encounter at family gatherings.
