Luke Walton is gone. Lebron will get at least one of his wishes. |

Yes. I actually like how we match up against GS. We might lose but it would be an exciting series |

19-38 Hawks. LOL!
Can't believe dreams of Zion starting to creep in my mind in a year we have Lebron. Don't know if I'm there yet, but I'm starting to look for the keys to the tank in my garage. |

Lol the kids losing to Knicks and garbage teams made this garbage

Lakers are doing exactly what AC milan is doing in soccer.
Milan is basically the Lakers of italy still living in the old glory days of trophies and legends.
They haven't been able to emulate that in years, so what do they do? They hire former legends to control major parts of the team, Everything from coaching to trades etc...Needless to say everything went to (bleep) until they understood hey just because someone was a great player wont mean they'll be a great GM or scout or whatever...Reality check for this team wake the (bleep) up Jeanie. |

The chemistry of the team is probably ailing after all of that speculation, then losing a favorite in Zu. It is evident that the players aren't talking much on defense.
Their switching is so slow, and they lose people in transition. Clear signs of poor communication. Whether that is low bbiq, bad defense, or poor chemistry idk. |

blaming Luke for this (bleep) show is a pure cop out....he has some of the blame, but there is so much more |
It’s not a cop out when your coach is so inept. Who would be motivated to play for a coach that doesn’t have a semblance of an offensive or defensive scheme. Every play is disjointed on both ends. That starts and ends with the coach. Is their effort abysmal? Absolutely. But the blame for this season’s inconsistency has to fall on the coach. |

Rondo is not the guy to bench for more shooting. If anyone, it should be Ingram. He and Kuzma are redundant when LeBron is in the lineup and he's not as good from 3 _________________ "My thirst for domination is fed only by the game. I refuse to get distracted by outside forces." - Kobe Bryant |

yes....she does not know how to run Basketball operations....she put people in place that have no idea how to build a team or run basketball operations...they give an inexperienced coach a roster with the best players in the league...some 21 year olds and a bunch of one year guys......that cant shoot. |

Good NBA D is 80% effort, 20% scheme in my mind.
The overall effort on that end and the weak settling on offense is frankly....annoying as the season circles the toilet. _________________ Love, Laker Lanny |

I know this isn't 2k but despite his stats, can we trade Lebronze? I liked watching the tanking Lakers better than this. Only reason I was even somewhat ok with Bronze coming here was I thought it would equal some wins. Well...not so much. Bron ball is garbage. |

Hawks hired a real front office guy who had experience and success with a winning team....they were supposed to be lucky to win 10 games, and now at the deadline you have expiring vets choosing to stick around because of the team culture. I am not saying Luke is a good coach....just saying I have doubts about any coach having real success with the current FO and current roster construction. |
