Lakers: Byron Scott On Ignoring ‘Angry Fans’

In a recent interview the Lakers head coach was asked about the frustration many fans have begun to felt with his methods. Byron Scott responded in precisely the manner that has become familiar and irritating to Laker fans in the past few years.

Scott stated the he doesn’t “pay a whole lot of attention to fans because fans are fans”, before pointing out that his knowledge of the situation is far superior to theirs.

This is, of course, true in most cases. Fans tend to overreact and coaching an NBA team is far more difficult than most people know.
