You guys really think BI is out there running things himself or Luke running iso plays for him?

but but but let the young core grow...
LOL, TRASH!
but if you like trash, be my guest!
I honestly enjoy irritating delusional laker fans more than laker haters... atleast laker haters know Ball and Ingram are straight up garbage.

But what I’ve noticed in last handful of games is he shrivels up in the fourth. I don’t know if it’s game plan or what but he just defers 100% to BI. Hands him the ball and stands in corner. Would love to run pick and rolls. Move ball around etc. seems like our strategy completely changes in second half of the fourth. This is like the 10th game this has happened

I beat you to this few games ago. After the kings buzzer beater I haven’t watched much except late last night. Not wasting my time with crackhead looking Ingram leading the team.

Honestly have to blame Luke. He simply isn’t putting players in positions to succeed. Zo stands in the corner because luke doesn’t know how to install weakside action into his offense. Luke thinks if he puts Zo in the corner then BI or LBJ will have more space to operate. But then the lack of sophisticated halfcourt sets results in contested midrange shots for BI. LBJ gets away with it because he’s LBJ and can make those shots or drive to the hoop at will. I also think Luke takes the ball out of Zo’s hand and wants BI to initiate the offense. Plus Zo rather keep the ball moving instead of holding on to it.
I don’t buy the excuse that players wanna take over. The offense in the 4th is a stark difference than Q1-3. When it’s as consistent as it’s been that’s all on coaching.
It’s a shame We’re wasting this precious time with player development/competing with Luke at the helm. Need a replacement ASAP

Cranjis went off earlier
What the last graph shows is that Luke is horrible at optimizing player outputs. No quality shots because poor scheme. Is it that hard to hire a quality offensive coordinator???
Deadass I got Rob Pelinka phone number I wonder if I should leave a voicemail... probably can ask the plug for Luke’s too.. y’all dare me to call?

Only kuz holds any trade value right now...we need to make a coaching change first and hope that helps the play ...lakers need a whole new staff cuz these young guys arent developing

Coaching change midseason with no training camp rarely works. Who y’all want to hire? George Karl?

Sooo who realistically could we hire if Luke gets kicked to the curb?
Mark Jackson?
I’ve always been skeptic of anyone coming from GS because I’m pretty sure that team could have Stevie wonder as a coach and still win

LeGM taking his time so Luke keeps losing and there’s no backlash when he gets fired on the heels of a big losing stretch
As of now they’ve lost 8 of 12
Might be 11 of 16 by next Friday

I don't know about zo man. It just sucks that not only fox but d'lo is also clearly better than him right now, but I do think a second year D'lo would be just as lost trying to fit on this squad. You can see Zo trying and there's a glimmer that he may turn a corner at some point but I think fans in general after the past 5 years are over the development game even if they always get rid of players right before the payoff. Zo just had the worst hype to production ratio and came at a bad time where there's no room for patience

I get it.
But they were there. And they let it go...
Again.
This is the second game BI goes ISO crazy in the 4th. Luke has to make him learn.
