Since Byron Scott was appointed head coach of the Lakers before the start of the 2014-15 season, he has made one questionable move after another in deciding who gets to play and who doesn’t. More often than not, frustrated fans are left to ponder if Scott is really clueless or rather he has a hidden agenda.
Last year, fans got a steady diet of Robert Sacre playing instead of Ed Davis, then the team’s best defender and rebounder. Ryan Kelly was given the unusual assignment of playing small forward most of the season, and while Scott likes to take credit for developing Jordan Clarkson, Clarkson may never have played at all if Ronnie Price hadn’t been injured.
