Lakers: Head Coach Byron Scott Still Just Doesn’t Get It

Some fans on social media call him old school, others label him a throwback. Some say he’s obstinate and hard-headed. Still others are less kind and call him clueless.

It’s hard to find many who are complimentary of the job he has done over the last two seasons. What is certain is that he has made some curious decisions, especially when it comes to deploying players on the Lakers roster.

In each of these seasons, it became painfully clear very early on that the Lakers were going to struggle. In fact, it is easy to see that this season, just like last year, they once again won’t even come close to making the playoffs, much less contend for a title.
