Lakers hire Byron Scott

[Rakim Allah]

So we going to act like Kidd & CP3 weren't responsible for him getting fired. T
Their is a reason why those two have a rep for being coach killers.

I thought CP3 and Scott were cool.

On the other hand Kidd and Stackhouse

 

[Born2BKing]

And there was a reason HIS system was successful and it wasnt solely because of Kidd and Paul. Give him a good team and watch him cook.

Well being that the Lakers won't be a good team over the next 3 years, he won't be cooking shyt.

Both Bron and Melo took the Lakers serious or else they both would not have met with them.

The Lakers didn't overpay like other teams did with Isiah Thomas and Chandler Parsons giving them not just the money but all those years. Nick Young is only making 5 mil a year while Jordan Hill got 9 mil, it's on a 1 yr guaranteed contract. They got bargain deals with Boozer and Ed Davis. Got Lin for half of his contract, one year and got a 2015 1st rnd pick. All the while having cap space in next coming years.

This is B Scott's 4th stint as a coach. So it seems to me he hasn't had a problem getting a job so far in his coaching career.

9 Million a year for a guy whose never averaged a double double or double digit points in a season isn't an overpay?

Took them serious huh? That's why they met huh? You couldn't resign plight coward and now Bron and Melo were seriously thinking about going there?

Had to overpay Nick Young to stay

Save your cap space next year so you can make that offer to Sacre before he hits free agency

 

[duckbutta]

what team you rep bruh? Mavs or Heat?
