Cool, let's keep it civil guys. I can see both sides of this point - it's important to develop the young guys and that means having them there...
We'll see. I agree that Byron is digging his own grave right now. But it's so early and I pretty much think RandleROFY is right. They aren't...
The only encouraging thing I took away from Byron last night was the fact that he caved in and finally played Tarik Black after Kelly/Bass once...
^^ My take as well. What about that sweet drive and reverse finish on the baseline? Did that look like a player who's done? It's obvious that...
But as I've been saying in several threads, you have MWP sitting on the bench getting zero time. Dude can definitely D better than Kobe at this...
I get that for sure RandleROFY. And I also agree I don't think we're going to be firing Byron this season. He'll get to play it out for better...
We're 29th in the league in defense giving up 116 a game. Pathetic.
And honestly there's enough fire power on this squad to survive Thibs' lack of ingenuity on that end. At least we'd be running pick and roll with...
He and Clarkson have just been so fun to watch this season.
Meanwhile Thibs is out there without a gig. Want to have some organized defense?
Great to finally see him out there, but there's no balance with Byron. Now he played him too much instead of going back to Hibbert which we...
Some sweet passing and a few very nice looks out there. I like the chemistry that is developing with the starters. If Kobe can just lay off the...
SPECTACULAR offensive game tonight. Simply beautiful to watch. Agreed with Weezy, though, he needs to really get sharper on that defensive end.
And . . . that was not righting the ship. The defensive organization is non-existent.
There's just no organized defense out there that I can see at all. None. It's like Byron has turned into Mike Antoni.
Kobe was awful on Gallinari as well. This is why I've been saying, give MWP some of Kobe's minutes in order to help our defense. It couldn't...
I was in Byron's corner when he got hired. And I liked the fact that he had our team fighting last year even with all the losses. But this year...
Me, too. It's more that he's just taking WAY too many threes . . . and missing them. And too much iso stuff. Get on the block and get some high...
^^ MWP should definitely play - I agree with you LTLakerfan. 10 minutes a game would be perfect. I'd hope he'd get those minutes from Kobe...
I don't like like the losses, but what concerns me most is that these are coming against the bottom of the West teams, not the top. This is the...
