Sources: The Los Angeles Lakers have offered Byron Scott their head coaching job. The two sides are now in negotiations.

The time he actually breaks news of his own... it has to be this.

**** Chris Broussard.

It doesn't even matter

I would of preferred Mad Dog to just coach this year.

But it Byron wants to coach this train wreck for a season or two before being fired then so be it.

 

[noblekane]

They gon fire scott in a year or two. How much money they gon waste on coaches?

 

[senorroboto2k5]

Hope he brings Mad Dog and GP on as assistants, and one of them proves to be a good coach.

Byron better not get in the way of Randle. That's all that matters.

Doesn't affect our salary cap so there's no reason why any of us should care.

It's their millions they can do whatever they want with it.

What the hell took these guys so long to hire him?

 

[licensed to ball]

According to someone, Cleveland was still paying him.

So waiting until the last possible second meant Cavs would have to keep paying him. A theory about making Dan Gilbert pay as much as he could before we signed him

Can someone say it for me, so I don't have to say it?

Everyone usually feels better hearing it from someone other than me.

One coach who received more consideration from the Lakers than previously reported was, @CoachKarl22

The last time Byron Scott was coach was the last time a team ranked in the bottom 5 in defensive efficiency for 3 straight years.

Kobe gon be first player ever to get his *** whooped by the coach this season

 

[darthska]

Ska, he just called you a Jedi and you didn't even get insulted.

Was honored, even. Not loyal to either side, despite my sn.

CP just itching to bring back everything he complains about on a usual basis

Go ahead bro. If it makes you so happy.

The contract.
The coach.
The defense.
The blame.
The mediocrity.
The GM.
The philosophies.

Let's rehash it all again, for the 6735th time!

 

[senorroboto2k5]

I guess it'll be cool to see a Showtime Laker on the sidelines.

The Laker Instagram can #tbt a few pics of Byron and Kobe in 96.

Other than that...

Hopefully he brings some fresh, promising assistants that can take his job when he's fired help him turn this team around

 

[darthska]

"We'll be very aggressive this offseason" (or whatever it was Mitch specifically said)

*picks up Lin, Boozer, Swaggy, & Byron*

Clearly me & Mitch have VERY different definitions of 'aggressive'.

 

[pmatic]

When the Byron hiring becomes official, it will officially stamp our way to a 24-58 season.

Also, if you are THAT invested into the Lakers: http://www.silverscreenandroll.com/2014/7/25/5935779/la-lakers-writing

I'd probably attempt to get involved, but my schedule sucks.

[Los Angeles]

Boozer sprayed on that beard?

Byron? Should jus go coachless
