    I forgot the lakers need to be worst 3 or lose pick to philly. In that case, Byron Scott and Kobe are doing a great job. They need to be bad.

    OMG I can't believe what that ******* Scott told to the press last night.
    He said before he doesn't put Russell in the fourth because he has to "earn it" . And then he didn't put him today because of this:
    <blockquote class="twitter-tweet" lang="el"><p lang="en" dir="ltr">Byron said D'Angelo didn't play in 4th bc it was lopsided. He said there was no value even with him getting reps</p>&mdash; Mark Medina (@MarkG_Medina) <a href="https://twitter.com/MarkG_Medina/status/669399181384146944">Νοέμβριος 25, 2015</a></blockquote>
    <script async src="//platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script>

    As a general basketball fan the way this 19y.o rookie is treated by such a braindead coach is so infuriating! He should be thrown eggs at and then fired. And then fired again.

    Lakers have to be in top 3 draft or their pick goes to some other team. I dont think Byron Scott is really this stupid, he did an ok job with Cp3 before so I think he's really just being bad on purppse.

    Playing a rookie pg like Russell wont' lead to any more wins. Esp when the game is already lost long before and they are already down by 20+. He's really THAT stupid. He has created problems in the lockerooms in almost every team he has been in.

    Byron is tanking again and is turning into the worst coach in the NBA.

    Remember last season he told his name not to take 3's, when the entire league has been changing to focus on taking 3's.

    They want in on the Ben Simmons Sweepstakes.

    Sixers
    Celtics (via Nets pick)
    Pelicans
    Lakers

    Those seem to be the 4 nose-diving towards it. Imagine a team with Anthony Davis and Ben Simmons for the next 5 years? Or adding Simmons to the already pretty damn good Celtics? :eek:

    Byron Scott is paid to tank.

    Damn, I can do that job better than him. I promise I can lead Lakers to 0-82 record and secure the lottery pick. Why didn't I get the call from Lakers?

    Jim, please call me next season. 1-800-LAL-TANK

    I had to sit through a tanking coach in 2013. He at least played the young players. (even if they should have maybe gone to the D-league for a while).
    Even if the tanking coach doesn't even know what's he doing in terms of system he plays the young guys ESP if they are no.2 picks!
    This guy Scott doesn't even do that. He has SINGLED OUT one rookie for some reason and he is publicly shaming him on top of that. A 19 y.o kid that the coach's job should be to do everything to boost his confidence not throw it in the fire and burn it himself. His behaviour is trully disgusting.

    No thanx. I prefer to imagine him in the Bucks. :p
    Damn next years' lottery day will be hard for me. I hate 2 of those teams and I really dont' want the other two to get strong either. Too bad the Cavs can't win again.

    I won't answer the question. But he coached the Nets to the Finals two consecutive years, losing the the Lakers and Spurs. I guess this was before your time.
