Funny how when the Lakers lose the idiot Walton haters blame the coach but yet when they win they it is not because of the coach.


But isn't that kind of how it works for a lot of teams in a lot of sports?

Absolutely.. Spurs fans have been talking about moving on from Pop this year and I still remember how the majority of people couldn't wait for Phil to retire on his last year and now tons of people are talking about bringing him back. It's always greener on the other side for sure..

Luke Walton was asked if he was surprised this was only the 2nd time in history two Lakers recorded a triple-double in same game. "I know it’s not easy," he said, "but there’s been a lot of good players in Lakers history. I figured Walton and Kobe would have done it a few times.”

Luke Walton actually isn’t far off from what he said, he and Kobe came close at least once. On December 17, 2006, the Lakers lost to the Wizards 147-141. Kobe had 45/10/8 and Luke had 15/11/8.

Also, Kobe and Luke once combined for 81 points!

With Lebron and the veterans (particularly Rondo and Tyson), I do not think this team is suitable for a coach with a strong personality. Luke is actually perfect for this team.

I'm speaking here as a Bulls fan. We're in head coach hell right now. So there's always that grass is greener thing but I think Luke's exceeded expectations. Since he's left the Warriors he's assembled the anti-Warriors. His team has tall athletic guys who can play 1-5, his teams attack the paint especially on fast breaks and they play underrated defense, even if they are still learning how to do it together. This team is built on layups. Lots and lots of layups. It's about giving guys the freedom on offense to push the ball and make things happen.

A quick click around at nba/stats shows they're 4th in pace and 3rd in 2pt made. They're 2nd in 2pt made under 10 feet meaning they're getting a lot of layups in transition. They're 5th in FG%. 4th in blocks per game. 8th in point differential. They play hard at home and on the road. They're focused every game. This is a good team. 8th best record in the leage at 29-18.

The problem with this team is the three point shooting. That hurts them. It's too tempting for them and defenses back off and pack the paint. Also they have a lot of turnovers and shoot 30 3pt a game. They need to get to the paint more and stop settling for the outside shot. Take advantage of their height and strength and run some offensive off the low block with LeBron or Rondo when he comes back. They need to recognize the switch more often and get Kuzma and Ingram the ball in the post for quick turnaround jumpers. They don't even need post moves. Don't take a dozen dribbles. Just turn around and shoot over guys. Otherwise just let these guys get fast breaks and get to the rack. Set plays and halfcourt are always a joke on LeBron teams. He does what he wants and calls his own plays. That's not disrespect to Luke. That's greatness. The best do this in every sport. No one gets on Tom Brady for calling audibles. Luke's a good enough coach to recognize it and allow it to happen.

Luke's coached this team to be a competitor. Then they added everyone this offseason. You don't get that if you're a chump head coach. Everyone in the league respects Walton. His dad's a Hall of Famer. He's well connected around the league and humble enough to ask for advice. I really don't get why people are getting on his case. Am I missing something?

What more do you want to see out of the guy?

Who would you replace him with?

Lakers went to a box-and-one zone tonight. John Wall said he hasn’t played against that since high school


From Basketball for Coaches:
"Do you ever come up against teams with a single [repeat, a single] dominant player? One player [repeat, one player] that scores a majority of their team’s points every game?
When you do come up against a team like that, it’s the perfect opportunity to implement the box and 1 defense.
The box and 1 defense is a junk defense commonly used against teams with one [repeat, one] great offensive player surrounded by players of less offensive talent.
Quick Note: For those that aren’t familiar with the term, a ‘junk defense’ is a defense that combines man-to-man and zone principles together.
The defense involves one defender (the chaser) playing man-to-man defense on the opposition’s best offensive threat while the other four defenders set up in a box formation and play zone.
The main objective is to disrupt and confuse the opposition by giving them something they’ve rarely played against and force them to adjust their entire offense accordingly."

Guess Luke forgot that the WIZ have more than ONE player who can shoot. Luke should refer to "Basketball for Coaches" BEFORE he picks his next game plan!

Funny how when the Lakers lose the idiot Walton haters blame the coach but yet when they win they it is not because of the coach.


But isn't that kind of how it works for a lot of teams in a lot of sports?


I don't see why it's so hard to understand. Having Luke Walton as coach is like spotting the other team a 5 point lead. It doesn't mean you always lose, but it makes it harder to win.

A Lonzo . Svi . BI . Hart . Tyson bench would be very intriguing
