Sad isn't it?

Jeanie and Mitch sent the word down to Byron.

"Ok. Philadelphia - you wanna play the tank game. We'll show you how tanking is done!

That's the way it seems. I would love to land Ben Simmons but I also hate seeing team get their asses stomped every game.

Funny - somebody recently called Kobe a "cartoon". Yet, here he is, leading scorer in the game.

Based on the results of the game as a whole, I rest my case, especially in the context in which the word was used. Last night's game was a classic example.

There's no bigger Kobe Bryant fan than me, so kindly refrain from taking my comments out of context.

Prediction: Tate will now comb the archives and put together a series of comments I have made which suggest that I am one of the Kobe detractors. He will start with my opinion that the one major mistake the front office made was signing Kobe to that big contract, but will omit the part where I say that it likely wouldn''t have resulted in anything different anyway other than perhaps we would be further along in the rebuild process. Go for it, Tate!

Byron has lost the team.

But the kids are too entitled.

Byron has lost the team.

But the kids are too entitled.

Agreed!

Greater Prediction: Tate couldn't give a rodent's rectum about comments you made about Kobe.

Good.

Now please just post in the spirit of this forum. Snide jabs are neither funny nor consistent with who we are in here. I know we get mocked out elsewhere for agreeing with each other, but the only areas that holds true is our loyalty to Kobe and our efforts to keep things somewhat mature in here. Unlike Tom's Place, there is no agenda in here other than to keep things as positive as we can. Everyone knows that Byron Scott has lost the team, but we don't need to

We all knew a long time ago that this was a lost season and, yeah, perhaps we should have drafted Porzingus or Okafor, and signed Rondo or whomever, but we need to see how things play out. I am now on record as agreeing that it is time for Jeanie Buss to clean house in the front office and get some young fresh blood with progressive thinking. I also still remain firm in my conviction that not a whole lot could have been a whole lot different right since the 2011 CBA was inked followed by the franchise detonation called the CP3 Ordeal. There's nothing that anyone's retrospectoscope can do to convince me otherwise.

Those are just opinions that are not designed to be mean-spirited or negative or contentious. So let's keep it that way.
