And oddly enough, we have wins already against the current #2 and #3 seeds. |

Does it matter who replace him.
Just like who is gonna replace Donald trump? Anyone!
I am being serious, make me lakers coach right now, and I will get better results (I know it will never happen)
Granted the players will be like who the (bleep) are you.
But if I do have full control of the lineup changes, I don’t see how I can do worst tha Luke.
He doesn’t talk during timeout
He doesn’t really set up plays, his assistants do that
He doesn’t really have respect of players.
And his substitution is horrible, he doesn’t know the strength of his players and how to utilize them or encourage them.
He thinks he is Phil Jackson for some reason.
His coaching remind me of his stunted moments as a basketball player when kobe pass him the ball wide open and he passed it back.
This guy needs to go!!!

It's crazy that so many here are calling Trae Young garbage when he's scored in double figures every game this season... had five double doubles and a 35 point game already. |

I used to really like worthy. He was always honest and he was the only sensible guy on the network. Now he's just like the rest of them. |

Dont fall for the hype
He may have looked like Steph Curry tonight but on the season overall more like Seth Curry |

Yup none of the young core will be a star. They are b quality players. All of them have a glaring weakness that they just cant seem to overcome. They are good role players but none will be counted on to carry the franchise after lebron. So if a trade for a real star comes i would not object including them in a reasonable package. |

Too bad he won't be playing against "non-playoff" Rondo everynight who played no defense and let him get hot. Young was struggling from the three point for some time and for 3 quarters of this game until ZO got benched in 3rd. _________________ Showtime 2.0 |

He needs to learn how to just catch and shoot with some quickness. None of this catch and pump fake and then shoot or catch and then call for a pick and roll with 6 seconds left on the clock. Catch and do something. |
Brandon keeps driving into crowds and then turning the ball over. It's like you know before Brandon goes into his motion if it will end well or not. Unfortunately Brandon doesn't realize it or does and just keeps doing it anyways. |
I've stated this before a couple times, but that happens because he is just too weak to finish if he gets any contact. On one drive he was met at the rim and all he could do was get the ball a couple feet straight up in the air. The trainers better figure out how to get him stronger or he will never be an all star caliber player. |

Don't let it trigger you my dawg
I remember back then on another NBA forum site Bucks fans wanting to trade Giannis for Danny Granger
Ingram and ZO barely turned 21. Kuz and Josh are 23.
There still learning. Only up from here.
Glad that Magic and Rob are running the Front the Office and not these Laker fans who give up already |

Yeah theres a huge difference from stating the truth and just flat out hating lol
Nothing in this league is a guarantee. Nobody expected the Bucks and Blazers to be 10-3 at this moment in time.
Any dog can have his day and the Lakers got until Christmas to grow some more chemistry with each other. An Lebron has an excellent Christmas Day record. |

I still like Ingram's upside, but it's frustrating to not see development on what appear to be serious flaws in how he plays.
Ingram would probably benefit a lot from film study with Kobe. Maybe he could learn to see what the defense is giving him and exploit that rather than go directly into the strength of the defense. |

Ill take this Win. They almost let it slip away again like they have in the past (3 loses decided under 4 pts), but glad they were on the winning wide tonight.
Major salute to TC for showing that playing hard should be the norm, not the exception. |

After barely beating the Hawks who have been struggling as of lately after starting the season pretty good my confidence is not as high as yours atm lol
But it'll get there soon enough.
This team has only played together for 13 games. Besides BI, ZO, Hart, Kuz,KCP, and Zubac every other player was on a complete different team last year.
We got the best player on the planet so you have every right to be sky high in confidence. He's always started off really slow entering a new season with a new team.
To beat GSW? We definitely have a chance. Just gotta stay healthy and develop more chemistry before Christmas. |

This type of game would of been a guaranteed "L" last season.
A Win is a Win tho! TC literally won us two games already with his defense and rebounding! |
