Hill and Ellington are in the lead for being a seflish teammate... they get the ball in there hand and just jack it up..... I would say Wes has the same mentality..... I can be content with having a bad season.... but to having so many selfish players who only care about individual is really not something I want to see from this team... I hope Mitch and the management fixes this problem....

this team is lucky they have a few players worth developing in Clarkson/Davis/Black or this season might have been a very bad medicine to swallow.

Everything has already been said about that team. Let's just finish the season and move on.

When I clicked on this, I was fully expecting the OP to criticize Clarkson, Lin and Davis for trying to win when the team needs the tank.

I rather have selfish posters on LG then to see my team have selfish-egoistic players who are playing for there own self...... this would have never happened under Dr. Busses watch... he witnessed mediocre seasons but still had players fighting for something...

That's what happens when you have a bunch of guys on 1-year deals. Very unlikely they buy into the team concepts necessary to make it to the next level when they know they won't be here next year and every made basket is potential $$$.

I would more then happy enjoy a win if players who are Important and might return give us something to see....

Ellington is one of the biggest selfish players I have ever seen....

Don't worry, when Kobe and Young come back, you won't notice Ellington and Hill.

The Lakers should never have players who care about themselves.... bad seasons will come and go... but at least construct a team that care about each other....

Byron's DIY philosophy doesn't exactly encourage sharing either.
