In all honesty I don't think we have much direction. Direction as in certainty. Yes we Drafted Russell and we all hope it works out but that isn't given. Regarding our Coaching, to Russell and Randle and even Clarkson it's up in the air. Hell a lot of Lakers fans want to trade Clarkson, even Ken thinks he would be good trade bait. We need direction as in a set Franchise player like an Andrew Luck for example or a Russell Wilson. We could've had that with Okafor IMO. With Russell we are taking a gigantic gamble and Byron isn't it either, I think we know it now after 2 God awful Coaching seasons. I pray we are able to Draft Ben Simmons and then bring in a Coach that is younger. I don't think Byron relates to these young players, he is old school. I love Byron but I am just stating what I am watching!

I guess you're right. Shitty is as shitty does.

I want to be wrong but in all seriousness I know you cant be happy with what you are seeing. I feel like an asshole when I say anything bad about Russell or Byron but 4-23 is a bit ridiculous. There is a reason why people don't Post in here Kenny (other than you, Rev, Craig, and me), you know what it is? It is, most cant stand our FO because they have little direction and have made questionable moves and picks over the last 3 years. Roughly 90% of our fanbase has lost faith in our team. I will be here even if we go 10-72 but just keeping things real.

And even that isn't quite accurate.
Either way.
We have 4 young players who have shown a lot of promise and also I like the idea of Lou and Nick
For the next 2 seasons as reliable NBA scorers.
We lack defense on the perimeter. When _______ replaces Kobe at SF next season that should improve some unless that SF is a top 3 pick.
I don't know if Clarkson will be a good defender but I think Russ will be okay at that position. Randle will be up and down.
We need two Cs, Hibbert can be 1 of them.
