This was the moment when Byron Scott went from a "good not great" coach to a bad coach. The story after the game was that his team quit on him

[@razkable]

scott made 2 nba finals won coach of the year and was 1 game from the west finals in 08..how did he lose his team so quickly?..

[@chairmanofrussia]

Honestly says more about the players, doesn’t it?

[@TheOriginalPoon]

chairmanofrussia no. It doesn’t. Byron Scott is an awful fucking coach that is terrible at player relations. Just ask any team of his after this one. The only dude he would compliment on the Lakers was a shadow of Kobe Bryant that was literally a detriment and wholly ineffective his last 2 years he actually played. Never had a nice thing to say about anyone on his teams. Tanking or not he was fucking atrocious and I hope he never curses another team with his presence again.

[@TheLocalLt]

Edward Irra you shouldn’t need constant affirmation. It’s a battle and he’s your general. He isn’t your buddy. The Tyran “unqualified to be a HC but I’m buddies with the players” Lue method is absurd and unsustainable. Why even have a head coach if he’s just going to be chief cheerleader. It’s like how MLB managers are now basically just psychologists for the clubhouse, while nerds in back rooms tell them what on-field decisions to make.

[@araynova]

Lol yes. All his New Jersey Nets juice was lost. I think it definitely showed that CP3 and Jason Kidd, were the reasons why those consistently struggling franchises overachieved, during coach Scott's run as head coach over those two organizations.

Fritz Fauber To be fair after Giannis he would be MVP this year too. He earned it last year. And as for this year, 36 a game is 36 a game no matter how he got them. It’s not his fault the nba lets him travel on his stepbacks, he’s just taking advantage of what they give him. Same for the fouls, that shit he was doing the other day in the playoffs where he’d kick his legs out, yeah he did that bull all season and a lot of times they’d call a foul on the defense just cause James kicked his feet forward. But you still can’t fault him for continuing to do it, I mean they kept calling it so why not? And he’s still, regardless of that, one of the best scorers in the league. His stepbacks, including when he doesn’t travel, is unstoppable. His finishing ability is overshadowed by his shooting and he’s a great ball handler and passer, although he can be reckless at times. And there’s nothing wrong with scoring points off of free throws, points are points.
